so much for that turkey

Today went something like this:

1. Get up. Pack. Take Stuff out to car. {Requires three trips.}

2. Decide maybe a side trip to the Ferry Building in downtown SF isn't the best idea. We were about 2 hours behind schedule.

3. Head due east and then south.

4. Realize that we know someone traveling the same highway in the opposite direction. Decide it would be fun to meet up. Flashbacks of Algebra 2 as we figure out where two cars traveling in opposite directions will meet up.

5. Make plans to meet up at the In 'N Out. Only I thought it was Starbucks. Didn't realize it until B packed up his stuff and left the Starbucks only to return to the door and give me that look like, you really need to learn to follow.

6. Meet up with friends at In 'N Out. Friends also have another friend driving Interstate 5. She meets up with us too.

7. Continue on the drive.

8. Arrive at the house and realize the power must have gone out while we were away as the microwave oven is flashing.

9. Opened up the freezer to find it covered in ice! No idea how long the electricity was out or if the 18-pound turkey (the free one) inside is still good.
