The local utility removed the damaged pole at midnight, probably because a neighbor's tree was holding up the pole.

I'm seriously starting to wonder about the sheer number of local drivers who fail basic driving checks.
Last night we heard a bang of a type we've heard before. Looking out the back window, something didn't seem exactly right. One of the light poles behind the house got hit for the 4th time.
The driver decided it was OK to just leave the scene. Or at least, in the minute it took us to get outside, they had driven off, leaving only the pole in their wake..

I don't know of it is just the lack of espresso and meetings today talking, but is having a double shot of espresso every hour till it feels like a bad idea a bad idea?

Unclarities
An offshore team member just said this word. It's clearly an incorrect word, but I am absolutely going to steal it.

First Monday in 599 days I'm not having to worry about the worst project of the last 25 years.

Not as horrible as the guy who fell asleep at the wheel and pushed the front the in. Maybe I should start parking somewhere else.

Oh joy. Seems backing out of a driveway onto a wide street is difficult for some people. 3rd time in 24 years someone has backed into my car coming out of a driveway across the street. Knocked the mirror right off. Good dent in the door too.

We started using the house spirits to roll dice to make meaningless decisions. Most times it's a coin toss to see who rolls first and then a d20, high roll wins.
My wife won the toss, and rolled a 1. I rolled a natural 20.
I am trying to decide now did I win, or was this an examples of catastrophic success.

Ever have one of those days where it's hard to differentiate between the IM client and the email client when trying to get work done?
Ok, maybe I'll just blame Microsoft and too many meetings ( for the last 6 hours ).

Defeat never felt so.good.
Freedom!!!

Driving westbound on Virginia Beach Blvd near Independence Blvd. Ran into a protest caravan of about 15 cars playing Palestinian flags.
Not something I expected to see today.

12:34 AM. My least favorite time if the day.
