Sep. 1st, 2004 02:16 pmThis morning as I was taking the office dogs for a stroll up on the lushly overgrown railroad tracks, a curious vehicle passed by. It was a pickup truck, modded to run on train tracks.
That looked like such a fun thing to be driving along. I mean really, you don't really have to worry about steering, you can just motor up and down the track as you see fit. Case in point when the same truck passed us again, this time in reverse.
They must be doing some track maintenance up there. It's been weeks since I've seen or heard an actual train go by, and there'd usually be at least two or three within my very short workday. Weird.
It's actually really nice out today. Not sweltering. Not soupy. Nice. A little hot, but the breeze mitigates it. There are some trees in the neighborhood seriously jumping the gun on the color change thing. Dude. Wait another six weeks, will ya? (that soon? wow. I'm going to be 26 in a little over a month. The level of baffled I am by this fact is... immeasurable.)
In other news there's a seriously bizarre crick in my neck currently.
Need lunch now. Then maybe some brain flushing into
violetsilence and then maybe a nap.
