Well, okay, not really. But “holes” is very much the word of the day around here. Our new neighbors have no yard at the moment. They have forty-bazillion holes in the ground. They’ve also had to dig one across the street for some purpose as yet unknown. We think they’re trying to find the sewer lines.

At any rate, listening to a backhoe all the livelong day is driving me insane. Of course, my dad says that’s a short trip for me.

I’m feeling especially braindead today. I sucked at Jeopardy. Probably a good thing I’m taking a break from writing right now. Though I am trying to work up a plan using Michelle’s great post. I’m not sure I should do that with no brain, but what the heck? Could make it a very interesting career plan.

Well! It was quite day at the races yesterday. Poor Giacomo didn’t do as well (he came in 3rd). My uncle’s horse did even worse (she came in 9th).

But, man oh man, what a finish at the Preakness!!!! I thought for sure Afleet Alex and Scrappy T’s jockeys were going to be thrown (and trampled!). Very scary moment!
