brian's vices

A strange thing: they took away that new toolbar that I moaned and groaned about several posts ago. Now I'm back to coding in links. Maybe they decided if I didn't appreciate it, I couldn't have it or something.

This after I began to appreciate the toolbar for making links. Of course.

And a snip of dialogue from Wednesday eve as I returned from school:

B: Hi honey. How's your day?

Me [suspicious because normally I get "Where have you BEEN!!"]: Fine...

B: You know how you said you loved me on the phone today?

Me [eyes narrowing]: yeah...

B: How much, exactly, do you love me?

Me: What did you BUY NOW??

B: Well, I went to look at some parts on a truck...

Me [relief seeping into my shoulders]: Oh, parts. How much?

B: Well, $250...

Me: That's an awful lot for parts. For which...?

B: Well, the parts are actually still ON the truck. Like, the parts CAME WITH a truck.

The main irony here is that we actually received a warning from our village zoning guy who said that we have to get rid of or register the three "abandoned/junk cars" from our driveway. And he's buying more.

The further irony is that we actually have FIVE unregistered vehicles in the drive.

Send your village zoning guys over to Smyrna, New York, where the "Welcome to Smyrna" sign has two junk cars parked under it. (One of these sunny days I'll remember to take the camera out there, snap a pic, and post it on my blog, categorized as "rurality.")
