Im going out for a Mexican dinner with the girl, and then we're going back to my place to drink margaritas all night in front of the back yard fire pit. Its 84 degrees out right now with zero humidity. So it'll be a great night to just hang back and chill.

I don't celebrate Cinco de Mayo for the same reason I don't think Mexicans should celebrate St. Patrick's Day.
