Husband's First Day of Semi-Retirement

Lab still hasn't confirmed that husband is officially on half-time so this "day off" may come out of our vacation budget.

Husband decided to have an Obama-thon this morning. He's watching a townhall meeting on CNBC starring OBAMA!  It's on from 10-noon and afterward, he'll hike with me.  I told him that likely no new news will transpire and that this is just a campaign event (even though not billed as such!) 

He can't tape the show on our VCR because it would interfere with my taping of Dr. Oz.  I'm passing time, waiting to go out on the hike, by doing a load of laundry and playing on the computer while half-listening to This American Life which I taped yesterday.  The show's theme was Life After Death - oh, oh...  (Isn't it quaint that we still use video and audio cassette tapes?)
