I’m not sure what to think. Should I be pissed off that DelDOT (The Delaware Department of Transportation (and possibly Lugubriosity)) saw fit to tear up the streets of my neighborhood for the second time in six months? Should I be overjoyed at the fact that they managed to completely tear off several hundred yards of roadway and replace it in a SINGLE DAY? Should I be outraged that they can do that, and yet the same part of I-95 has been a construction zone for roughly 18 months?
I don’t know what to think.
You might think that yesterday lacked a post because I was off and relaxing, but no! It actually lacked a post because I worked so hard during the day that I had no time for an update! Ha ha ha! Good times! I’m trying to figure out how to word my letter to Jesse Jackson to ask what he thinks of my company not giving us a day off on MLK Jr. Day.
We had a nice weekend, though. Friday night I went over to my buddy Bill’s for an evening of music playing, which we try and do every couple weeks. The next day we spent putting away all the Christmas stuff (the tree had been up for a record 7 weeks! Woohoo!), and doing some general cleaning, such that our house doesn’t look quite so much like Santa took a dump on it.
That evening I worked, and then we went out with Sarah’s mom to pick out some sexy new cabinets for our kitchen so I can store more than 2 cookie sheets and a bundt pan. We then got dinner at “Steak and Ale.” I had prime rib, although to be honest, I question whether or not the meat was actually prime-quality. It had all the toughness and lack of internal marbling that seemed to indicate “Select”-level meat. It wasn’t bad, though. Good vegetables.
Sunday we had church (1 hour and 45 minutes! WHOOOO!), followed by fixing the gutter on my roof which had almost completely separated from the house in high winds. I forgot to take a picture. MY BAD. Then we went to my parents where we met with old friends and ate fried chicken.
It made me happy. (In my pants.)
