My Favorite Truck Returns!

Whenever there's lots of hatred happening in the street (like today; jackhammering everywhere, but most particularly, right under my window), you can always count on a visit from the Non Potable Water WATER Do Not Drink truck. Here it is at 2nd & Blanchard:


Every time I see this truck, I get thirsty. It's telling me that I can't drink from it and I'm begging to differ. I just want one sip, just to see what it's like, just for laughs. How sick could it possibly make me? I mean, is the water tainted with ebola or something? I want water from that truck!

Another Reason Why Yesterday Sucked

Just as I was trying to turn the friggin' day around, the orange vests show up on the corner of 2nd & Blanchard with metal monsters. One of them was equipped with the lovely Baroness von Jackhammer. Yeah, it was loud. Even the flies who orbit in the center of my main room wanted no part of it.

They punched a couple of big holes in the sidewalk and asphalt, and, as is their habit, disappeared. Will they return? Who knows?

But yesterday wasn't a total loss, my favorite truck made a special guest appearance:

For those of you new to this blog, that's the Non Potable Water WATER Do Not Drink truck and I love it. You know what I really want to do? Drink from it. Damn straight.

I also got together with Trumpet Dave at Buckley's at 3:00. They have a lovely terrace and an extensive happy hour there, so we hung out and drank for a long time. Thanks to much wine, the day did indeed turn around and things began to look less grim. The end.

The Return of My Favorite Truck!

Just down the street from all that swell entrenching is my favorite truck. It's parked at 2nd & Stewart. They really don't want you to drink that water. Observe:

Favorite truck is just a component to a larger scheme that involves taking out large sections of pavement, digging around for a while and then repaving. It looks something like this:

But you know that it ain't no party without the Non Potable Water WATER Do Not Drink truck there.
