Easter dinner revisited
I didn't mention it yesterday, but after church we went over to my parents' house for Easter dinner, which was delicious (I forced down a considerable amount of food despite still being full of the breakfast I had eaten at church only three hours previously). My mother sent us home with a whole lot of food, and I packed some of it up into my lunch today. I was looking forward to it all morning. Turkey, mached potatoes, stuffing, gravy--a guy could get used to that! One of the student teachers also had her Easter leftovers; we were definitely the cool kids today in the teachers' lounge. She was even cooler than me, actually, because she and her housemates had cooked their own food. Naturally, I didn't let it slip that my mom made my lunch. Hey, at least I packed it myself!
On an unrelated note, and if you'll permit me to make a weather-related observation, it's been raining all day, and really hard at times. Luckily for the folks who worry about basement flooding, we had a bunch of warm days with really no rain so far, except that one that was mixed with snow, so all the snow's been seriously melting for a week or two. Plus, the ground is thawed and even dried out some, so all the water should be able to drain nicely away from foundations. That doesn't help the roads, though: I had some fun and exciting hydroplaning on the way home from work this afternoon. Good times.
