Yes. I Can Has. The guys from Harrison Paving finished up around 4pm yesterday. The fixed my nasty sinkhole, and resurfaced the whole business. The complete resurfacing cost a little extra, but I had the money, and just look at it…it was worth it! –click for the full size version– I honestly would have been [...]

After being stood up by paving guy number one, and once last night by paving guy number two, the owner of Harrison Paving (that’s company number two) came by this morning, apologized for last night’s mishap, and offered me a good price well within my budget (and should leave me enough left over in the [...]

No rodent escapes, decent night’s sleep. Yay. Since I feel I ought to have something else here, I include, for your entertainment, a picture I found a while ago that made me laugh. Perhaps it will also cause you to do so:

Not to diminish the reasons and motivations behind the actual celebration of Memorial Day, a worthy day of remembrance and celebration of the service of our nation’s veterans, that more people perhaps ought to consider (particularly, you know, people in power right now, and those seeking power), but I’d honestly rather just put this particular [...]

I had a great time on Monday night, no question. However, being up that late, given how I’ve been sleeping the last week and a half, probably wasn’t the best thing for me. I went to bed early last night, though it was still a chore to pull myself out of bed this morning. One [...]

…but I did get all these neat pictures from Nationals Park! Despite my chosen team’s loss, it was a nice, cheap evening’s entertainment. Tickets, for the record, were five bucks. A hot dog, fries, and a soda were another seven. With metro fare included, the evening still came in under twenty bucks. You’ll get no [...]

Anybody planning on watching the Phillies vs. Nationals game on TV tonight, be sure to look for a dark t-shirt wearing pixel on your screen in the far background of the upper, upper deck over left field. That pixel will be me.
