Fall of Saigon

... Of course, no one here refers to it as the Fall of Saigon. The victors write the history books. Anyway, today commemorates 34 years since the South Vietnamese government capitulated to the North. The upside: I get the day off. I am off tomorrow also, because it is International Labor Day. Unfortunately, with a day off the family expects to go somewhere, and I really would rather relax.

I have the logic advantage when discussing this with Diep, because she is heading to Saigon on 3 May until 8 May. It is easy for me to just raise this as the reason we can't afford to do anything now.

So here I am, watching TV and relaxing. Get it while I can!
