How do you cancel national holidays? I mean, I know my boss is capable, but I didn't realize you were a boss. Oh wait...your wife seems to have a pretty good grasp on the "boss"ness, HA!

well, i just walked through the rain to my truck, got in it...wouldnt start. the starter turned over but the motor didnt.
Messed around with it for a little while, still nothing. Got out, walked around campus until i found a brick that looked worthy enough to kick the ***** outta my starter, crawled under it (on top of a drainage grate/ enormous puddle) beat the starter hoping to free it up so it would engage, turned the key again...still just sitting and grinding.

Took all my clothes off except for my boots and shorts and threw them in the bed of my truck and walked all the way back across campus looking like a crazy man..

Well thats about how my night went..how about all of you?
