Nice way to welcome the new year, this year, with a three-day weekend only a week after a four-day weekend. It's very relaxed. Since they schedule most holidays on Monday, these days, maybe they could just pre-determine that Christmas and New Year's will always be on Fridays or Mondays from now on. I suppose the calendar would get really messed up if we had to tie the holidays to dates but some clever legislator should be able to figure it out.
And I love the marathons that some television stations run on holidays. The Thin Man and Sherlock Holmes are this year's pleasures for me. They're not brilliant in terms of dialog or plot, I suppose, but they do hold up and they're lots of fun.
Kudos, too, to Panera restaurant which was open all day, has free wifi and fireplaces, and is always so welcoming to people relaxing in their pleasant cafe-like places.
