I do not observe Black Friday. By that I mean that I do not ever shop on the Friday after Thanksgiving. Ever.

Usually I take the Friday after Thanksgiving off from work. But because I’m trying to save enough leave for my honeymoon, I am at the office today.

It’s a dead zone in the admin section - I’m it. What’s weird is that all of the judges are in today and we have a full docket in court. Friday is sentencing day, so I guess they didn’t want prisoners to languish for another weekend without knowing their judicial fates. Nice, no?

I do plan to meet the Cooties to go see Harry Potter and Goblet of Fire after work. Beau is at his apartment in H’burg working on the final packing and loading the truck for his Final Move into our house tomorrow. We’re both excited about that, although the logistics for the Chastity Watch™ will be interesting for the next month. When he’s in the house up here, I’ll be at my parents. When he’s in H’burg for teaching, I’ll be in the house. The two weeks before the wedding I’ll be at my parents full time again until the wedding.

Anyhoo, tomorrow night we have a Family Christmas Gathering at my parents house. On my Dad’s side of the family we adults draw names for the gift giving and the gathering rotates between my parents and my two sets of aunts/uncles houses. Usually we meet around New Years, but with the wedding on that weekend, Mom moved it up to T’giving weekend instead. So, we have that tomorrow night, which will be fun.

Sunday will be church and then I’ll drive Beau back to H’burg since he won’t have a car (he’ll be turning in the rental truck here since it’s cheaper to rent it one-way).
