The 5th of July

If that wonderful summer holiday, aka Independence Day, falls on any day except a Wednesday, my POW (place of work) gives us 2 days off. But when it falls on the hump, like it did this year...then it's one day, slaves.

So you get that blessed day off and then right back to a (mostly empty) building, since many take this week off it seems. Oh, well.

In North J., we got heat. Oppressive heat. "Africa Hot" as a young Matthew Broderick saidin Biloxi Blues. Both boys have ball games tonight, so hopefully we see a little break later. I won't be coaching those games, as your regulars know. Almost ready to tell that story. Stay tuned.
