Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #171: On Turkeys.
Gross, crappy, rainy day here right now. But I'm not working, so that's a plus. I have to get my windshield replaced today. The crack has grown significantly since Friday. Can't have them come to me as it's raining and they can't do it outside. No biggie.
Met friends for breakfast this morning. These are my friends I was with Friday night - my Greek buddies. They do breakfast a lot but I can't because I, you know, have a job. But I was off today. So I woke up (instead of sleeping in), drove all the way to Woburn, where they all live, in the cold rain. Walked to the restaurant and I was the only one there. I texted one of them as I wasn't sure if I was in the right place. Finally, one of them shows up, then the one who arranged it, 20 minutes late. Emails had gone around in the morning that I missed - three others passed. Great. Thanks for the warning. Could've stayed in bed an extra hour.
So yesterday my brother and I drove up to my other brother's house to see the nieces and all go out to eat. And, I told them we should take a picture of the six of us, put it in a frame and give to our folks as a gift. We get up there, my sister-in-law couldn't find one of her siblings or one of my niece's million friends who are ALWAYS over there to take the picture. They had an old camera with a self timer so we tried that. When we loaded it onto the computer to email it to me, we all went "UGH!" So after dinner one of my niece's friends came over and we took a few more. Got one we liked, I emailed it to myself and when I got home I sent it to Walgreen's so I could pick it up this morning. Headed there just now and they're like "Oh, yeah, you won't get it till the 27th. We're out of photo paper." What????? So I just opened an account at CVS' photo department and sent it there and will pick it up later.
Oh, and the traffic light cycle at the main intersection where I live has been changed AGAIN and it's this cluster**** of traffic out there. There is a state police barracks right there. I cannot understand how they don't see what a nightmare it is. I do not know who oversees the traffic lights there. Is it the state police or the city police? This is not the time to try something new.
