Today is a public holiday in the USA, ostensibly! It is Veterans' Day.
However, most US businesses do not recognise most holidays, so almost everyone works just like any other day. Fortunately for me, it is one of the holidays that UC Davis observes. The schools also have the day off.
Since it was a holiday, and I intended to take it, I took a long weekend break from Davis (Friday to Tuesday), to spend in Rocklin. I did do some work on Monday (debugging the programs I am writing for my research programme), but am studiously avoiding anything like work today!
I will probably spend the coming weekend in Davis, as the following weekend we are going to Disneyland for three days, which should be great fun! We get back on the Monday evening, and the Thursday after that is the Thanksgiving holiday here (a big deal that everyone does observe), so I will probably stay on for the rest of that week and the following weekend.
