Well, after the kind of week it's been at work, it's only appropriate that something like this would happen on a Friday morning. The incident site is right along my walk to work, at State and Wacker (yes, Martha, Wacker Drive is pretty much my straightest shot to get to work!). After walking past, I smelled like a campfire. I also got to see the fire boat in the river - I think Mark would like that job. :-)
So, yeah, this week at work's been a doozy. The rest of life has been great, though! Trey and I got to be home together Wednesday night and got to make dinner. It's fortunate that we actually got to tidy up the house a bit, too, because it looks like we'll have guest with us this weekend! Plus, Kristin will be in town for a visit, and I have the day off Monday due to Columbus Day. Could life be any better?
Have a great weekend!

I like the smell of campfires. Did you happen to have marshmallows to roast?
I'm jealous that you get Monday off. :(
Do you snicker every time you walk down Wacker Drive? I snicker every time I hear/read/type that word.
I hope you have a great long weekend, and hopefully work will be better next week!
Wow - i went to that link adn it was updated as of 53 minutes ago (according to the screen) and i felt very in the know! :)
Ok, so now there's ANOTHER fire going on, just up the street. My boss who was outside for lunch said that they've closed the street off, and the fire's at 450-something. I work at 401. Crazy.
I'm used to Wacker - I associate it with the Blues Brothers for some reason. Trey, on the other hand, responded with, "Wacker...I don't even know 'er!" When I told him you thought Wacker was funny. Wacker, Wacker, Wacker! :-)
Smores would be yummy right now!
hehehe.
Like I've said before: I promise I'm not 14.
Another fire. Wow. All accidental/non intentional?
Ha! Martha - I was thinking the exact same thing... Freaky!
Columbus day? And there you Americans go complaining about not having enough days off every year! :)
I can't recall ever having Columbus Day off. :( I don't even think schools get off, do they? Do you work for the Feds or a Bank, Viki??
I wish I had today off!
There have been a string of arson fires on foreclosed/abandoned homes in the Cincinnati area lately.
