Laundry, vacuuming, Christmas decorating, CD review and a mini-workout in the basement (5K treadmill, sit-ups, weights)
Pretty great ending to season four of Breaking Bad – now on to bad Vikings football (and some cleaning)
Woohoo – old lady gone, kids gone, empty house. This calls for a party pizza, no?
Down to two episodes – what a great show
Three episodes left, but my eyelids are slamming – later
I should go to sleep, but I just can’t stop watching Breaking Bad season four
And now, accordion!
I’m really glad none of my fantasies involve football

Today I got a wheat penny in change – not every day you get a 91-year-old coin for “free”

Local lunch, local Christmas tree, local music
Tree now up in the front room and the kids are going nuts getting it ready. Off to Electric Fetus for a CD, then pick up some dinner
I think my absolute favorite things at the Minnesota Historical Society’s 1968 exhibit were the free reproductions of the December 24, 1968 edition of the Minneapolis Tribune newspaper. Not just one page – the whole edition: sports, comics, stock quotes, obits, etc. So fun to see ads for Dayton’s and Donaldson’s department stores again…
The other part of the exhibit that I found fascinating was the section that talked about Robert Kennedy’s assassination. There was a multimedia display that cycled through still photographs of people lining the route his funeral train traveled between New York and Washington, D.C. The quality of the photos were amazing – someone did an awesome restoration job.
The exhibit is open through February 20, 2012, but if you catch it in the next few days, you’ll save a dollar on admission.
1968 exhibit at the MHS is cool, but that also means I’m really old

I’ve hammered a smile across this pasty face of mine since the day I was born in 1975.

The scale was not kind this morning, so I hit Lebanon Hills – beautiful morning on the trail
