Pleasantly cool! Work done! Discoveries made! Quality of life improves with little effort and minimal expense! How gratifying that is! Brief power outage last evening with the usual cause, a drunk driver or drugged driver loses control and smacks a power pole. That happens a LOT. I kind of regret now that Lubbock went "wet". The City of Mums has become The City of Drunks. Too many bars, nightclubs, package stores and so on. Gee, with a church on every corner and most of them Baptist and Methodist, how can this be? My personal feeling about drunks has no element of sympathy. I would have to say that I hate drunks, and druggies as well.
That's one reason I no longer drive after dark, at least not on a weekend, and not around tech, and not anywhere near the Depot District. Avoid that area like the plague. In the dark! In the night! At times when the drunks hold sway! Truly, the only good drunk is either dead or doing the steps. AA is a good thing indeed. In fact, Alcoholics Anonymous is the only religion this country really needs. And there are actually good drugs, like anti-depressants and anti-psychotics and drugs to control mania and personality disorders. We need a lot more people receiving treatment for mental/emotional illness.
