Move in, or move out?
When we moved into the BAR Corp. HQ, the only "store" close by was a lonely Texaco gas station.
I hated the long commute to work. As we have gotten closer (very close) to the childrens graduating college, Belle and I have mused about moving closer in to town so my daily commute isn't such a long grind.
It has gotten so crowded out here now it's beginning to bug me. God help me, I'm leaning towards moving further out.
Doh! Biden visited the Port of Houston Today.
He gave an "inspiring" speech about things of which he knows nothing. By "inspiring" I mean he managed not to step on his own tongue.
I can remember when it was a cool thing and big deal to have the president or vice president visit Houston. Now when they show up my reaction is, "Oh jeez, please go back to DC before some of the fail oozes off of you and pollutes one of the few surviving economies in this country".
Fog out there this morning, drive safely.
So said the weather report this morning.
"Drive safely" apparently means drive slower than physically possible during rush hour. I left ten minutes ahead of schedule and got to work ten minutes late. The fog was "thick". Visibility couldn't have been more than two miles in front of my car. Thank God it didn't "rain". I might not have made it to work by quittin time.

ReplyDeleteI can remember, barely for the most part, when the President or Vice President were people we could respect, even if we didn't agree with them.
The new place we're moving into is only a couple miles further commute for me because of the backtracking I have to do currently to get to the interstate. But it feels like you're ten miles further out since it's not a quarter mile from the interstate physically. Then again, the only time I ever have any "real" traffic problems is when someone rams a semi on the freeway and it's down to one lane.
