Hail, hail, the gang's all here...
Sorry for the punny headline, but I just couldn't resist. Today we got about 5 minutes of straight hail. I opened the door to take a picture and one flew onto my carpet. I measured it at about 1/2 inch diameter. Not the dinky, intantly-melted stuff we usually get in the summer. How odd. Here's the sandbox and the would-be flower bed at my apartment, both filled with hail stones.
At least Memorial Day Weekend had nice weather. Brent and I had adventures at Washington Park on Sunday. We rode the lightrail there and rented a paddle boat to pedal around one of the lakes. After that we had some more pedal time on a tandem bike, because Brent saw it at the rental place and couldn't resist its retro charm.
In other news, I'm jobless for a couple of weeks. My test-grading assignment ended on Friday (actually for me it ended Thursday because I would have had to re-test on Friday, which they didn't see as being worth it). Westaff called today with an offer for this weekend, but I was busy so they'll get back to me. To be specific, Brent and I are planning a camping trip this weekend to celebrate the six-month mark of our relationship. Next week we're heading up to South Dakota for his family reunion, which should be fun since I haven't been there. After that I'm set to take over managerial duties for a week at Ten Thousand Villages. That will conclude my busy few weeks, at which point I hope to find some type of permanent or long-term temporary employment. Wish me luck. Now I'm off to do some chores around the apartment.
