I went to bed with the intention to spend the morning writing, and well… obviously that’s not happening with what’s going on. I’m stuck to the Boston police scanner. Good thing there’s two nap times a day and it’s Friday. Wow, it’s Friday already? Double WTF.
What else is going to happen this week? What is it about this week in history?
1775 – American Revolution began
1865 – Lincoln assassination
1947 – Start of the Cold War
1961 – Bay of Pigs
1983 – Lebanon embassy bombing
1993 – Waco siege
1995 – OKC bombing
1999 – Columbine shooting
This year – Boston and West
We stopped in West, TX just last Friday on the way to our vacation destination. Captain M had a kolache, and I had a gingerbread cookie. I think nearly every Texan in this area has stopped there at some point for awesome Czech goodies. It’s only about an hour south of us.
Crazy. More reminders that life is fleeting.
