Not that they've been doing great against other teams, but

Sure hope it's a pleasant and restful Sunday for everyone out there.

I bought a jar of sliced pickles from the store for the purpose of makin' sammiches. However, I didn't realize that I had bought bread and butter pickles until after I took a bite. Yuck.

Speaking of isolated spots of cicadas, there's a random spot near work that's like driving through an asteroid field. Just like a bunch of random rocks hitting the hull as you drive through.

What's your method for getting rid of hiccups? Mine is to hold my breath, but that only works when I stop thinking about it.

We haven't really had the cicadas buzzing away around our house, and we've got a decent amount of trees in the neighborhood (six large ones in our yard alone). However I was driving with the windows open next a forest preserve not too far from the house and you could almost feel the noise coming from the woods. Guess that's where the party is.

Well, we’re done now. We’ve got options for Rick, but Pete is going to be harder to deal with. He’ll be going into 8th grade next year, and I don’t feel that’s quite old enough to be by himself all day. We’ll see how this works…

Have a day, citizens!

We had a lot of rain yesterday, and while driving home I noticed a flooded corner with an obviously plugged drain. I've seen social media accounts solely dedicated to unclogging sewers grates, and while I don't subscribe, I totally get it. After we got home I took the kids over and we removed the debris. Very satisfying.

Aw man, Otoboke Beaver is going to be in America when I'm going to be in Japan.
