Should I worry about Communists?

I was sitting on my back porch eating a peanut butter and honey sandwich, drinking sweet, looking at the trees and listening to the birds. Driving back in from church I passed 2 lemonade stands, one which didn’t even have any adults in sight. Every yard in the neighborhood has an American flag in it (not exaggerating, someone took a whole bunch of American flags and put one in front of every house). I didn’t move to the suburbs, I moved to the 1950s.

Operation: Chicken Little - Stalled

Filed under: Housing — dave @ 4:14 pm

I’ve put in three more days of effort into operation chicken little, but that’s rather pathetic given the nearly month long period that has transpired since day 2. Day 3 was the third bedroom. I was joined by Jeremy for Day 4 when we took down the entire living room in one go.

Day 5 was the entryway and “dining room”. Special thanks to Dylan and Dorothy for bringing burgers and beer. Now, I’ve got my parents coming in a week from today, but I’m not entirely sure what projects will be worth doing at that point.
