evileWow, there was a big damn wreck right outside my office. What is UP with the traffic today?! Oh, wait, I forgot, it's the ROT Rally. I heard motorcycles up and down 15th street alll of yesterday afternoon. Whatever. Noisy bikers.
And apparently those marching kids were the "Youth Leadership Conference"...whatever that is. I never will understand why and how things get scheduled here. Youth Leadership and Bikers the same weekend. SXSW and and the UIL basketball tournament every year in March. You'd think one or the other would want to move their dates. To reduce the cognitive dissonance, if nothing else.
ANYWAY. Peeking out my 4th floor office window, there are lots of cops and the usual bunch of rubberneckers, including some folks that look like they've been on the Santa Rampage since whenever that was in December 2007. Some blood. ew. People are so morbid! Actually walking TOWARD the wreck!
(aside: you know, I am totally cool with Keepin Austin Wierd, but Santa costumes in June...that's a little too wierd, even for me.)
OK, back to work. Since we're so short-handed, there's actually lots for me to do. The phones are pretty quiet today, too. That's a plus.
