Non retail mostly still get it off here I believe. Traffic was extra light this morning on 95. I am alone in my office, listening to the rain pound on the roof.

I love it when the building is silent ( at least no human noise).

9. No.
:( The first and only time I've ever had Columbus Day off was last year, when I worked for a bank.

15. I was surprised to find out that our bank will be open today.
I thought banks took all of the federal holidays.
