Thursday

Tired and blah for about 95% of the entire day. It was nice this morning, almost cool, but just now I had to turn on the AC in my car coming back from the store. It's 89 degrees at the moment (31.7 Celsius).

Saw a small woodpecker, a Downy or Hairy, at the birdfeeder this afternoon. :-)

You know what the thing about that is, though? In other places this results from people being lazy, not doing there work. Here it's from people having too much work to do. These guys* took off because they were needed on half a dozen other jobs. We can't say screw 'em and hire another company because that other company would also have too much work to do and the same thing would happen. There just aren't enough workers to go around.
*The foreman on this work crew is constantly on his phone, it's ringing every five minutes at least, and his ring tone is the theme from The Lone Ranger :)
