Rain, rain, go away.

The rains of have begun, and are at this moment falling on a pile of wood that Mr. Woodward (yes, that’s his real name) dumped on my driveway this afternoon while I was out. Buddy Boy split a whole pile of old logs into kindling, but we can’t start using the wood stove until the chimney sweeps have been. Home ownership is sometimes a real pain.

Buddy Boy had an interesting adventure last night. He and a friend laid siege to the dumpster behind McDo’s in the hope of finding unclaimed prizes on unpeeled drink cups. To their credit they were rewarded with enough valid coupons to pay for their breakfast, but the grand prix eluded them. Personally I think he’s nuts. He did get to find out firsthand how grotty the inside of a dumpster is, though.
