I was a little ill yesterday. I won't go into the pathetic details, but it may have something to do with swallowing too much pool water at West Edmonton Mall, or eating all that KFC for lunch that same day. Long story short: my agony and inability to stand up yesterday morning -- that same agony that prevented me from going to work -- had pretty much faded to a dull rumbling and growing restlessness by mid-afternoon. As such, I decided to take myself out for some air, and drove down to visit our lot. Interestingly enough, someone had staked it, and dropped a small collection of building supplies -- things like rebar and bucks (and of course there are more in the gallery) -- at the edge of the road. In about four months, a pile of rebar and two-by-fours at the end of my driveway would be a bit of afternoon angst. However, since said driveway does not yet exist, and the supplies will in fact lead to its eventual creation, it was more of an exciting sight that anything. I predict by my next visit there may be even more progress -- perhaps even a big hole.
