Holy DUNG! What's that orange glow???
Distance Run: 0 - Couldn't sleep last night - running wouldn't be a good idea.
Other Exercise: See above
I ended up staying up until midnight last night waiting for the laundry to get dry and fold it. When I got done I took a shower and as I was walking to bed I saw this big orange colored ball off in the distance through the window. Turns out there was a big fire just across the field I'm guessing maybe a half mile away at most. I stood there and watched for a few minutes (it was sorta mesmerizing) and as I did, I debated as to whether I should make a phone call to 911 because it looked like there was an actual structure of some sort that was burning but it didn't look like there was anyone attending to it. Just as the thought went through my head, a cop car soon followed by a couple of fire trucks came down the road. I don't know why but as I was watching all of this, I couldn't help but have the thought about how it started and wonder if it was the job of an arsonist. I think it was mainly because of the location and the fact that it didn't appear to be a place where a fire would just start all on its own.
I checked one of the local news websites today and then watched the news tonight. I guess what I saw burning was an abandoned barn. According to the report, it was one of two fires of the night/early morning (the other an abandoned house) both within less than two miles of each other (I didn't see the other one) and arson is suspected. When I heard about that, all I could think was, "Oh great, not only do we have bullies showing up around our neighborhood, there are pyros here too. Fuckers better not show up at my house."
And now for a couple of rants cuz I need to let off some steam.....
So I now remember one of the biggest reasons I began wearing contacts over glasses. I was slumming this weekend and really couldn't be fussed to mess with my contacts besides it's a good idea to let your eyes rest from them every now and then especially when you wear them like I do (minute I get up until the minute I go to bed). Anyway, I decided I would make this a "rest" weekend. Bad idea! The bridge of my nose and tops of my ears hurt like none other!
Ok, I'm really fuckin pissed off now. I had written up my other rant concerning a drug for dogs and blogger fuckin ate - BASTARD!!! Well, rather than right it up again tonight, I will try to write it up for tomorrow instead. Grrrrr!
Til next time.....
