Oops
I was about to gather the trash and take it out, when I heard an odd kind of crash from outside and went out to see. There was a pickup truck stopped and a big drift of broken glass behind it. What?
Turns out a guy was carrying a glass-topped patio table and it had come loose and slid off the back of the truck. Oh, man, glass everywhere. A couple of us neighbors got brooms and dustpans and boxes and we cleaned it up pretty well. Good thing it was safety glass - not sharp at all and it just broke into little cubes almost. But meanwhile a thunderstorm was coming and the wind kicked up from the East and then the West.
So of course by the time I was taking my own trash out it was in the middle of the storm and I didn't even try to hurry so I was soaked. Which means when I got in I hung my wet clothes up to dry and got into my nightshirt. Comfy and relaxing. And I have BBQ potato chips.
Quiet now. Time for bed.
