Rosie's Diner

Stopped off at Rosie's Diner in my neighborhood this morning for an omelete and some coffee. Good meal and good people. I hope to stop by there again someday.

Some sun today. It was nice to see the road with the help of sunglasses rather than windshield wipers.

Have a good weekend everybody.

I Kinda Miss The Rain

Just joking. I thought I would see some sun this morning. No dice.

I saw a wild turkey sitting on a parked car in someone's driveway on the way to work.

Those things are creepy.

It Must Be Summer

I don't think I saw any school buses today. Looking at my trip duration, the shortness supports a lack of school buses.

It must be summer even if the weather says "sorta".

I Am Not Going To Talk About The Rain

There's no need. I think it's fine since I am in an office all day. I wish it were sunny on the weekend...but we had good times in the house.

The roads aren't slick.

The driving has been pretty good for the most part.

I am not going to talk about the rain.

Nice Convertable

This dude in some pretty cool looking convertable was behind me for a while today. I think peeps are going a little nuts for the sun.

This car didn't look like his everyday car. Probably one he drives on sunny summer days.

He probably wanted to make sure he used it this year!

3 Days of Dampness

The dampness. It seeps into your bones and makes you cranky...maybe. I don't know. I think I am a little bummed out about the sky being overcast.

I want some sun.

It would be nice to put the old shades on again.

Feel the warmth on my face.

Soon.

Vengeance!

Eh, it's not really vengeance...I just being saucy today.

I was being nice and I let one person cut in front of me at a stop light in the center of Chelmsford. Well, somebody else (an additional somebody) took advantage of my kindness and she cut in before I could get rolling... She pulled the "if I don't make eye contact, it's okay if I pull out in front of you" move. I hate that move....even though I have been guilty of that move in the past.

It irked me for some reason that she got in front of me without my full consent.


Anyway, she pulled in front of me and was ahead of me for the rest of my drive...until...

We got to Bedford center and she tried to take a short cut...it turned out to be a long cut because I stayed on the main road and got in front of her. NICE!

I win!

You know...I think I need a hobby.

Looks Like We're In For A Few Days Like This One

Cloudy, cool, rainy, damp...looks like it's going to be another long stretch of these kind of days.

Hopefully, this is just the precursor to many days of sun and good temperatures. Summer will be here soon....and it's better to be in the office when we have this weather than when it is sunny.

I Had A Tailgater

Tailgating bring up thoughts of burgers and beer in the parking lot of some stadium. Not me. It's more like visions of dudes in mid-sized pickup trucks that like to ride my back bumper.

I took care of the sitch by speeding ahead. Then suddenly, he didn't want to be so near.

Tell me why I don't like Mondays?

Deer Sighting

On the way to work this morning, I saw a deer. It was eating grass in the front of the Job Lane House in Bedford. It appeared to be a young doe. It took off before I got a good look.

It was a good sight to see.

Jardek's Doughnut & Breakfast Shop

I had some dough burning in my pocket so I stopped at another local breakfast shop.

This time it was Jardek's Doughnut & Breakfast Shop. I got an egg and cheese sandwich on an English muffin, a medium coffee, and a Billerica Creme doughtnut.

The sandwich was good, the coffee was fine, but the doughnut was excellent.

I may need to stop in a few more times...

I saw a motorcycle with two wheels in the front this morning. It was like training wheels but worse.
