Thoughts on the Day

  • Lego – Danish word for “caltrop”.
  • Apparently there’s a new Lego store in town, and that’s where Boo is going to have his birthday party this year.
    • You can hear the excitement in my voice, can’t you?
  • Note to self – door knobs are right at forehead height for 5 year old boys who have been cooped up inside all day.
  • I had to go downtown on Friday to go to the doctor and renew my concealed carry license.
    • Has it been five years already?
    • My doctor’s office is across the street from the convenience store that was hit with a mob on Saturday.  I didn’t notice any additional security there or more police on the streets.
  • Speaking of Saturday, we seem to have gotten through the University of Louisville versus University of Kentucky basketball game last night without any incidents, or at least without any reported incidents.
  • The local fish-rag actually did a little reporting, and it appears that the police might be paying attention now.
    • I wonder if the police would just give me a ticket for ‘menacing’ if I were to face off against uniformed police officers and ball my fists up.
    • The map on the first article encompasses a lot more incidents than we knew about earlier in the week and in a much larger area.
  • Going to the warehouse store late on a Saturday night went surprisingly smoothly today.
    • The zombies lined up for their free samples didn’t block the aisles too badly, and we seem to have timed it so that we got there right after a large wave of customers had left.
  • Irish Woman and I have spent the last day and a half trying to defunk the house.  Between shedding dogs and cats, a long winter burning wood in the fireplace, and schmutz that seems to be continuously tracked in from outside, things were desperately in need of a good vacuuming and dusting.
    • This was done in lieu of garden and yard work.  2 inches of cold rain and wind will tend to dampen your enthusiasm for digging in the dirt and building stuff.
  • Irish Woman and I have begun our spring ritual of barking like seals as the pollen, mold, and whatall in the Kentucky atmosphere reasserts is dominance over our immune systems.

    Y’know, if there’s a group of people attacking my car, I don’t think I can think of a reason not to drive through them.

    Man, I’ve had a boring week compared to you….take a break, relax. Hope the doctor renewed your license.
