Today continues.

It was warm out, and sunny, and Eva saw an ambulance in front of our neighbor's house earlier so I hope she's all right.

If you don't mind me channeling my inner Gordon Ramsay, really good pizza is not "fast food"! (good article other than that, though)

Oh, dear. Not a good sign.

I haven't been hearing a lot of sirens of late. I went to the post office about 9pm last night to try to post a parcel (failed: didn't quite fit in the drop, wife posted it today) and saw two law enforcement-types at the gas station, so at least they're out and about. I guess lower traffic = lower accident rate and people less inclined to speed. Certainly no school zone violations these days.
