The long holiday weekend is over and even though something like three and a half feet of rain fell, it still worked out just fine. Some good family time, some good Schaub housewarming time, some good Roos brunch time, some good McMillan get-together time, and - go figure - some good pumping out the sailboat time.

I also attempted to watch the Indy 500. I say 'attempted' because it started and stopped and started and seemed to stretch across like 10 hours of the day on Saturday and I doubt anybody really saw the whole thing. The green flag was scheduled to drop at 11, and right off the bat rain forced like an hour delay. Even without the delay that felt like a late start. 11 am? I remember back in college that I used to have to SET MY ALARM in order to wake up on time. This year I was up like 6 hours early.

Holy crap I'm an old man.

In case you missed the other big race that day, the winner of the Milhouse 500 was Milhouse.
