Pyat and the Parking Lot of Doom

[pyat]

This morning, I managed to lock my keys in my car, for the first time in 8 years. And, naturally, I had two armloads of groceries, and it was -6 C out. And, naturally, three of the bags broke as I futzed around, patting pockets in my coat and trousers in search of the keys, because I'd overloaded the bags, since I was just going "a little ways."

I was just a couple of blocks from velvetpage's work, so I schelped through the snow in thin loafers, carrying armloads of sundries. I got wet and cold, but also got her keys, walked back, and all was well with the world.

The day got better after that - a long warm bath, coffee / conversation / book browsing with catsarah, and some work-at-home productivity. And tonight there's a Valentine's Day concert, dinner out, and possibly some hardcore woo-pitchery.

And remember - the Provicially Mandated "Family Day" is Monday. Long weekend!

Yes - my provincially mandated family will be happily celebrating provincially mandated family day - possibly by frightening our daughter with dinosaur bones!

"...- possibly by frightening our daughter with dinosaur bones!

At least SOMEONE is keeping the old Family Day traditions alive, even in this age of Family Day consumerism.

Man, you know the only reason the Government instituted Family Day on the 18th was to steal yet another holy day away from the.. (checks Wikipedia) the.. Scientologists?!. Uhm. Damn. I was expecting 'pagans'. I'll have to retool my lecture now..
