No school today?

Y'know---I find it amazing that people forget so easily that we homeschool.We are usually off on Wednesdays, and I tend to go to the same places during school hours to run my errands.The local market, the library, the px, and outdoor fun. INEVITABLY, I bump into people I know who say to me "What, no school today?" I usually have some lame answer, because I'm not sure exactly how to answer it.
I saw this on a homeschool page and I had a good laugh.
