I Guess I'll Just Always Wonder

Two things left me scratching my head this week:

• At work they are collecting food to make a Thanksgiving meal to give to needy families. My floor was assigned to bring in canned tomatoes. I've no idea what traditional Thanksgiving dish requires canned tomatoes. I asked around, including locals, and no one had any idea what canned tomatoes would be used for. Any guesses?
• While walking to the Metro one morning this week a man who was pulled over to the side of the road rolled down the passenger side window and asked me if I was wearing a slip. I responded in the negative and hurried on my way. Why did he ask me that? Was he just curious? Conducting a survey? Did he need one? If I had said yes would he have asked to borrow mine or to buy it from me?

Philadelphia

I spent the weekend visiting friends Brian and Brett in their new city of residence. We visited some historical sites, toured U Penn, ate some delicious food, and had lots of fun. I love that my new city is so close to other fun cities.

How Would You Dispose of a Large Pile of Packing Materials Including Three Wooden Pallets?

Drive around in the cover of night dumping it into random dumpsters? Because that's what I did.
