Windsor Locks gave up the goods. At 1745 the UPS man came up the pathway with a small box in his hand and a tired beaten look on his face. I wouldn't want to be driving in those open dark brown trucks in the over 90 °F. weather we've been suffering the past few days.
This is being written with my new toy.

It’s a town near I-91 between Hartford and Springfield. I have probably driven though it on the Interstate no less than a hundred times, maybe a lot more. I never noticed it. Never needed to. Now UPS tells me my Nexus 7 is sitting in their depot there. All of a sudden I have noticed Windsor Locks, CT.
Are they waiting for the canal boat? It’s about 4 hours from my house.
Just saying…

Now that most holidays have been cornered on Mondays having a “You must take the day off” holiday on Wednesday is a tad confusing. Not confusing as to whether or not to take off on that day, but to which weekend it should be associated.
The previous weekend, which started in June, was called the “July 4th Weekend” by many in the media. But now, the day before Independence Day, the same media is referring to next weekend as “July 4th Weekend”.
As I think of it, perhaps having a holiday on a Wednesday is not that bad an idea after all. Instead of one, you get two weekends.
But…
That means you have to take Monday and Friday off. Which leaves your work days as Tuesday and Thursday… Oh, dear…
Happy Independence Day!! LiveJournal Tags: Holiday
