Another week has come and gone and we have arrived at Friday!
Monday and Tuesday were catch-up from being down in Orlando all last week and then came the bizzaro Wednesday holiday (which I heartily enjoyed). Then came yesterday and today. It's been pretty quiet around here with all of the people taking off the week for the 4th of July. So quiet, it's almost as bad as around Christmas time when folks take off between Christmas and New Years.
The good news is that it's actually the second Friday of the week! (Tuesday being the first Friday, of course.) You really can't complain about a week with two Fridays. Well...maybe about the fact there was also two Mondays, but that's it.
No news from Capitol Hill as they've been "out" all week. It's sometimes called "recess" but Congress has moved to calling it (more appropriately if you ask me) a "district work period." The July 4th work period doesn't even closely resemble a "recess" for Members of Congress (MoC). With so many parades and public events, MoCs are usually stretched thin the entire week. Typically it's also a good time to campaign so there's often fund raisers and rallies set up during this time, too.
Short and sweet this week! Lots more to come next week!
Around the water cooler: Lots of hydration. A discussion on coffee and mustard turned into learning about supertasters. Are you a supertaster? Take this quick quiz to find out! Then post in the comments what you are. I'll go first...
