catching up
So I have been AWOL for awhile. But you already knew that, all 56 of you. Thas is, by the way, how many unique visiters came over the past week only to see absoluly nothing new. I am ashamed. So here is a flurry of new stuff.
For the first time since I was about 10, I wore a hole through the knee of my jeans. Do they still make those iron-on knee patches which were all the rag back in the 80′s? Would I use one even if they did? Wouldn’t that be scary?
I can’t help but think that someone out there has been kept up at night wondering what my backyard looks like. Wonder no more.
Yesterday, I set out to run several errands around town. I didn’t actually get much done. Why you ask? Because of two traffic events which totally shut down the city.
One : someone desided that it would be a good idea to cross lanes on I-95 and shut down the interstate for 4 hours
Two: A truck driver decided to unload a healthy portion used oil through one of the major intersection in Melbourne, creating what the newspaper called “a car-sized Slip-n-Slide” at the same time the interstate was shut down. Yahoo for traffic.
After only two short weeks, I not only have a job, but I also have a project to work on. No more surfing the web for 9 hours a day. Thank goodness. I would tell you what I am working on, but I can’t, cause then I would have to have you killed.
On a related note, to get into the building I have been at for the last two weeks, there are a series of card swipes, turn-stiles, elevators, and such. I have yet to walk through this array of security measures without humming the Get Smart theme song.
