I do enjoy a good holiday weekend. \u00a0It also happened that I was on-call, which, while lending a slight distraction to the holiday, also provides me with a 3-day weekend coming up also. \u00a0Good times! \u00a0Anyway, as far as this weekend went, I sort of took it easy and laid low. \u00a0Always a good strategy while waiting to get paged. \u00a0We did have some friends come down from Nebraska, which provided a good bit of entertainment Saturday. \u00a0They rolled into town around lunch time, and we met up down at the Brooksider to watch the Huskers game. \u00a0I’d misjudged the crowd a bit (forgot about those nutty Iowa State fans and their watch parties down there) but we were able to get a few TV’s tuned in.<\/p>\n
Sunday morning we met them for some breakfast, then they were off to Nebraska and we were off to the couch. \u00a0Other than a few hours spent at the dog park Monday I just didn’t do a whole heck of a lot the rest of the weekend. \u00a0Watched a LOT of movies, none of them worth mentioning. \u00a0Suffered through the Royals a few times. \u00a0Loitered at Costco a while. \u00a0And… \u00a0That’s about it. \u00a0My main plan for the actual holiday afternoon was smoking a few slabs of baby-backs; \u00a0Instead I ended up eating a basket of cheesy ‘tater tots at the Brooksider. \u00a0Motivation was lacking a bit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
