Wednesday

The universe hates me. Not much sleep, then early-morning tree trimmers next door. Ah, the sound of chainsaws at dawn! And dogs barking. And guys yelling to each other.

Sunny, 75 degrees (23.9 Celsius). Still reading Empire of the Summer Moon, almost finished with it.

Very cool reportage from the BBC last night -- boy buried at Stonehenge with amber necklace was from the Mediterranean. The news is also in the Telegraph, which has a lovely shot of Stonehenge in snow.

The chainsaws went on until about 2:30 this afternoon, after which I went outside and discovered that not only had they trimmed our neighbor's trees, they'd trimmed one of OURS too. Idiots.

Laundry detergent powder ... oh, NO.

Oh, no. I guess all you can do about the tree is point out that they goofed and threaten them with instant death if they do it again.

The mister asked if I'd made the boy clean up the soap powder and I said no because yelling at him while I did was much more cathartic. :D
