I found my liquor today. biggrin It's been a very dry couple of weeks. NOW, however, it is very, very wet. Yay boobs!...er...booze!

(If and/or when I find my camera cable, I'll post progress pics.)

There is nothing quite so disconcerting as driving through a construction zone in the wee hours of the morning while thinking:

I hope I'm on the right side of the cones this time.

one of my customers once explained to me in detail how he learned from experience that every sixth construction barrel is filled with sand instead of water. (sigh)

I have a new book to read: the NEC 2005 Handbook. biggrin

SYH + tech manuals = love

{added at update}

(For those not in the know, that's the handbook for the 2005 National Electrical Code put out by the National Fire Protection Association of Quincy, Mass.)

(Above pun not intended.)

What, pray tell, is an NEC 2005?

Makes me feel old too....I was probably in 10th or 11th grade at that point.

Have you ever heard "Smells Like Queer Spirit" by Pansy Division? Now that's a fun cover.

As for Sunset Blvd....damn straight I'll be there. Tiffany's working, she's a lame ass like that.

well i am sort of known for never answering my phone. i text like a maniac. if i really want to talk to someone, i'll answer, or i'll call them. otherwise, i just ignore it. being somewhat accident prone and directionally challenged, i find it invaluable to always have a means of contacting someone when there is no one else around, for those frequent times that i hurt myself or get lost. confused
salura:
yeah pittsburgh's really not a city to fuck around with driving in without the aid of a cell phone. even if you typed the right zip. pittsburgh likes to put the signs for exits about 2 seconds before you make the exit.

I often wish I could get by with moving less than at least once (sometimes more like 2-3 times) per year. :-/

I talked to the guy who owns the Weston route for my current store and he said he has a 1/2 ton Dodge 318 and a 16 foot trailer. He also said a few of the other drivers have an 18 foot trailer.

Today Eireann & I dined at a lovely greasy spoon in Milford--D's Cafe. Very busy place, good food.

After breakfast, I trekked to Redford for a full day of housework. Between mowing the lawn & tearing the ceiling out of the meter room, I took a few pictures. Be warned, there's yellow tile & purple paint around. Oh, and a brown living room to...

Eventually I will remember to take my camera to my hovel & snap a few pics. My parents & grandmothers are curious as to what I have gotten myself into. I figure I might as well let the uncaring masses in on it too, yes?

Tonight I shall spend hunting for fridges (required), gas stoves (desired), and gas dryers (also desired). Being the thrify man...
