Ah,.the post fireworks traffic jam behind the house.
I wonder how late this will run this year. I believe the record is 23:45.

Some random thoughts from a trip to a grocery store tonight.

Morning

00:00 EDT.

Is it strange that right now feels like it should be Wednesday?

Ah, the frustration caused when someone tell you that something must be done by the end of the day, and that same person pulls you into calls that prevent any work on that thi g from even being started.
So how is everyone else doing today?

00:00 Eastern

My wife noted the lines at gas stations as she drove home. When she got here she said she was craving Wawa.
I could have walked and gotten there and back faster the driving there. They ran out of gas as I was paying for our food.
I wonder how many teachers are going to callnout because they won't have the gas to get to school and back home by Friday.

Nothing like starting the day to sirens. Seems someone on the street started a fire in their backyard. 12 trucks tor through the neighborhood trying to find a fire.
/smh

First gas station we've seen run out when a hurricane wasn't involved tonight.

April = seven

Moderna shot 2 done.
Now I'm in the wait.
At least they are only holding me for 15 minutes this time.

Oh hi. Happy almost, but not quite entirely unlike, Friday.

Wait, that can't be right.
I can't be hearing jets out if Oceana at the same time there's a thunderstorm over Norfolk Naval.
I mean, ok I'm about halfway between them, but seriously? It's confusing enough to be a distraction.

Sitting in a bagel shop waiting for my order on an empty stomach.
So that's what a hunger pang feels like.
This place smells great.

Happy Friday

I need coffee. But this happened

Somethings to note:
- I have never liked cats
- I am allergic to cats
- I am allergic to wood molds
- I am allergic to tree pollen
- I do not like ladders

So why did I just drive a mile, climb a ladder and remove a cat from a tree?
Fortunately only 1 scratch, but if I had not been wearing a mask I would probably have needed stitches.
All this cause my wife's TA has been stuck in a tree for 3 days, and I have a ladder.

Moderna cmvaccine first shot today. 7 hours after and I feel a bit itchy. Now I just need them to open it up so my youngest can get his shots and be able to go back to school in Charlotte in the fall.
