3-Day Weekend, how I long for you...

What I'll do on my day off, I don't know just yet. I assume there will be fireworks and drinks. The how and where is still under consideration. This week has not been particularly demanding in terms of work, but I find that I feel completely drained.

Saturday evening brings my son home to me, and it could not happen soon enough. I've missed him something terrible. I'm not looking forward to telling him one of his fish died, but at least he wasn't here for the event. That would have upset him all the more. The fish lived a long, happy life. Then he turned black down his side (probably some fungus, and probably my fault) and I flushed him down the toilet.

Next Saturday sees my friend Matt stop by for a one day visit. Since I haven't been face to face with him in at least 5 years, this ought to be a good time. I still haven't figured out what we're going to do when he stops by. What do people do in the Twin Cities for a good time? I'm not going to take him to the Mall of America... Advice, anyone?
