I love you, too.

This morning I got up, went to put oil in the tractor, noticed that it was already full of oil. Checked it three times to be sure, since they assured me that they would remove all the oil before delivery. Then, I put gas in the tractor. Then I started it up. I ran it for like 30 seconds and shut it down. I didn't drive it out of the garage, cuz I checked my watch and noted that if I didn't leave for work soon, I'd be late for my 8:30 meeting.

I had a big grin on my face when The Mrs. came in the garage. Always there to share in my happiness, she put her hands on her hips and exclaimed, "Now the garage stinks!"

Hey, we need the Mrs.' help back here in SJ. The garbage was once again NOT picked up. As I recall, she actually was able to talk to a live person the last time this happened.

The guy in the white Jag is spending a lot of time at the ole house. Closing can't be far off.

OH! I remember - call the number on the garbage calendar, and keep saying "transfer" to the automatron. I think that's how I did it.

Persistence and a fair amount of bitching actually paid off. I actually got someone to pick up the garbage on Saturday, imagine that!

A few folks at the ole house today with tape measures. Must be good news.
