so knock the fucking bridge down and be done with it already
we're in day... i dunno, five? of the duke street bridge destruction saga, and the nightly pummeling that echoes across all of durham kept me up til about 3am this morning.
now admittedly, my extensive wakefulness was partially my own fault; sometimes i go with the restlessness a little more than i should.
:|:
in the "oh, you've got to be kidding me" department, someone is selling a diesel westy in youngsville, nc. it's from new mexico, so there's probably no rust, and overall it sounds like it's in much, much better condition than 9 Westy.
when a diesel westy popped up a short ways away from me, i thought, "well, i'll never find another one in north carolina... ought to go for it if i want one".

avondale and roxboro bridge(s?) to begin destruction in a week or so.
time to get used to sleeping with earplugs.

I feel so lucky to be far away enough that we couldn't hear anything when they were doing 85 construction down at our end a couple of years ago.
