Friday for Seniors

 No, we're not talking about some special deal today at the local Dennys for those of us over 50. Actually, I think they have it at 55, but that is aside from the point. Tonight is the Senior Recognition at the home football game. The Youngest will be (the last) one of the band seniors being presented, and the Wife, with my limping, heavy self, will be escorting him. Last night they were working on the poster with his name and whatever ideas they had drawn on it. I think his was his name and a bass drum.

Saturday will be a busy day. Youngest has NAU band day, and his call time is 5am at the school. It is only about a 2 1/2 hour drive, and they do not perform until noon. Then stay until the awards at 6pm before being on the road around 7pm. The Wife and I are not going this year. Last year we went, and ended up in the rain for an hour plus, as the parking shuttles decided to stop transporting people before the end of the event. Luckily, campus police were able to get the 15 or so of us to our respective vehicles. I have no desire for that to happen again. Instead we will be making a trip down south to visit the Daughter, SIL and Doodad. Our plans now are that we arrive back home about the time Youngest returns to the school.

I am feeling a bit hungry this morning. Usually I skip breakfast, or have a few bites of whatever we have in leftovers. I see there are none this morning though. Also, I am craving some soda - or carbonation of some kind. I think  I should get up and go up to the QT and get my 52-oucer full of Mountain Dew, then grab a couple rollers in the food area. Yeah, now I am more hungry thinking about it.
