- God, what a mess out there. * Drove into work late this morning. We were just having a company meeting anyway, and I
can do that just as easily at home. * Of course, there's no way I was gonna be out there walking. * Thank god for snow
tires. * Called roof guy. I feel we're making real progress in our relationship. * He's sending a guy over tomorrow.
Which is okay, I suppose. The dripping's stopped and I don't want some guy falling to his death in my backyard. That
would suck. * I got the ladder out last night and put it up against the roof. I guess I was thinking maybe I could
clear the drainpipe or something and get some of the water moving again. Something. But I took one step on the thing
and my whole brain screamed out "Jesus Christ! You're going to kill yourself!" and I stepped down and put the ladder
away again. * I hate ladders. * My trees survived the ordeal largely unscathed. * Likewise, my eaves troughs are still
attached to the eaves. I was a bit worried. * Work was looking pretty good up until Wednesday when it started sucking
again. Luckily, I have my quarterly review in a couple hours. This could either be good or very bad. * I need a
haircut. * Ad Astra! Woo! I have no idea when I'll get there. * Okay, I'll stop now.
