Damn this park! Just damn it to hell and back. The next loud, annoying project that I’ll have to listen to that’s going to last for days will be from the 9th to the 13th. When they filled in the holes they made when they dug for the new irrigation system, they sunk a bit so they’re going to be fixing those. The only two good things are that I’ll be up during that time so there’s no risk of being woken up, and they’re not going to be grinding the street in back of us. There are others they’re going to be grounding so I’m sure I’ll still hear it and plenty more as tons of loud vehicles roar by.

I’m surprised they’re not going to do the section between us and the Twenties because there are a couple of dips there from when they filled in holes after the Internet upgrade. I always avoid them when biking through there, not so much because they’re dangerous but because they’re annoying.

Last night I bashed the Walmart on Auburn Boulevard on both Google and Yelp. We wasted half an hour shopping just to find one of the aisles was closed because it was being mopped. The guy wouldn’t even let me get the items I needed. Fed up with part of the store being closed, the blasting music, the shelf stockers in the way, we left and went to Raley’s instead. They played music too, but not as loud. Also, the workers obstructed only one aisle.

“Where are we going to shop from now on?” I asked. “Raley’s is pretty expensive.”

So Tom did a little research and we’re going to try Safeway’s delivery service. We’ve seen them delivering for some people in the park. They used to deliver for Jackie when she was here.

Last night I dreamed that Arizona and California were the same state, though I don’t know what it was called. Some neighbor somewhere was annoying me with engine gunning and I guess I was back on probation because Scott was really into the idea of me becoming the lead singer for a band that was managed by people he knew. I thought it was rather interesting too, since he never heard me sing.
