Why is everyone home today?
Seriously. I live in a town house community in Coral Springs where no one is ever home…the parking lot is always empty except during the Super Bowl. Holidays? They travel. No one is is ever home…they are in Atlanta during the week, they stop by Friday evening, and then they are off to Gainsville. Others go “up north”. Yet every parking space is full this Saturday.
WHY?
What? It’s the weekend AFTER Memorial Day? Big freakin’ deal.
What? It’s RAINING EVERYWHERE IN AMERICA? Boo-hoo. It’s amazing how humans are afraid of rain.
I have to sit back and laugh at this “trend”. It’s not like the neighbors talk to each other and plan this stuff.
Yep..let’s all stay home today. Yeah, welcome home folks. Glad you can enjoy your home on this Saturday, I’m here EVERY DAY and EVERY NIGHT. Nice to see you, too.
Jerks.
I mean, people are double-parked today. Usually it looks like a closed mall, where there are just a few cars. But today? Even Cousin Manfred was invited over today.
What? Do people in Broward County actually care about the Cleveland basketball game? Oh, we’re supposed to be Orlando Magic fans now?
Come on…
What’s the secret?
Everyone was gone last weekend due to Memorial day. Heck, because of the three days off, people weren’t here for the WHOLE WEEK. Where do they go?
But today? Yeah..it’s the weekend after Memorial Day, let me take a break from driving..weather’s bad anyway.
Yeah, okay whatever.
It’s not just a South Florida thang.
When I was in Tampa it was the same thing. I lived in campus at USF- in Theta Hall. My dorm and campus was EVACUATED on the weekends and holidays all the time. You’d think someone called in a bomb threat or something.
Does everyone have two homes?
It’s like people in cities are just transient by nature
Addicted to driving? Must investigate further.

The recession finally caught up to everybody?
I wonder what National Geographic would say about this: “The human, with their use of calendars, chooses the weekend after Memorial Day to hibernate for two days, having depleted precious resources during the prior weekend’s celebrations.”
I know I’m at home this weekend … other than viewing the products of slavery at Wal*Mart and going to Church, I haven’t left home.

We’re currently dealing with a wolf spider who is trying to capture one of us. I’ve been webbed in my sleep, and the corridor leading to the bedroom has been webbed. I think he wants to eat my upper torso and head.
MMmmmmmmm..Hungry wolf spider
