Well 12/12/12 has been a normal day so far.  I am going to a dinner party with my wife tonight at Lucille Packard Children's Hospital so that is unusual.  I may get to eat all the sushi I want tonight which is unusual but is unprecedented.  I got my flu shot and even though that was yesterday, that is unusual.  Kendra has not updated us about her experience in Berlin but again, not unusual.  So, a normal day so far.
