Cow Appreciation Day

So it apparently Cow Appreciation day this Friday and the crowd just can't wait. The Peruvian does appear to be trying to catch sick to be exempted but what kind of family would we be if we allowed that to happen? Not wanting him to miss the excitement, we will roll him in, if necessary.
Monday, while still apparently on California time, I just got all caught up in the excitement at the local Chick-filet. Couldn't avoid it what with the balloons, cow hats and the promise of free food for all cows on Friday. Got the kids jazzed up when I informed them that we were going to dress up like cows on Friday and then venture out into our nearest Chick-Filet for FREE dinner. One even called me at work the next day to see if I could just take all of Friday off so we could exploit the free food deal by taking our three meals at three different stores all while dressed like cows. Apparently, he is beginning to think like his mother which seems to be of concern to his father. Some muttering about not being able to handle "your mother" in stereo. Of course, that will not be necessary as the son and I will quickly bring Mia into the fold so their father can hear with BOSE type clarity- sound from all direction.

Chick-filet suggests that their cows are white with black spots. Of course, that may be true but as the son pointed out, they may also be black cows with really, really big white spots which is good because the husband somehow has managed to misplace every single piece of white clothing in the house since my annnouncement of this family celebration Monday evening. We'll give him the good news 2 minutes before departure when we start sticky taping white spots on him. Of course, if Mia is responsible for this task, all of the spots will be at 24" or less but we can always tell the Chick-filet folks that he is a mutant. Wouldn't want him to go hungry after all. May even get him a happy balloon.
