Alright, so last night was a crazy night.  I finished my training classes and was on my way home at 9:18pm–my ride is normally 20-25 minutes long which has me arriving home around 9:45.  I grab a bite to eat and generally sit down to start my blog post for the evening.  Well, last night was the commute from… not heaven… took me an hour and twenty minutes.  It was awful.   There is a crazy construction project on that road which can turn my 25minute drive into a 45minute drive in its own right but on top of that awful project, there was a water main break earlier in the day that they were repairing.  So, this is like a ‘main drag’ 6 lane road and they had it down to one lane in each direction, with random lane switches, and had it so people could not make a left hand turn (to get off that road).  It just so happens that I needed to turn left to get to my house.  After 4 intersections, passed the one I initially wanted to turn left at, I finally gave up and turned right at an intersection and then made a VERY illegal u-turn so I could FINALLY cross the darn road!  It was a crazy journey and I didn’t even get home until 10:40 but I made it home eventually and safely.  I had to feed the dogs and return some work emails… and I found it to be nearly midnight before starting to think about my blog… which stinks because I agreed to a last-minute babysitting job for my neighbor… and the job starts at 7:15am.
Given that I have to get up in like 6 hours, I’m not going to get to write a proper blog.  Sad-face right?  Well, I’ll make it up by sharing some Rio puppy pictures and a few Rio naughty pictures and and early Rio video… I hope you enjoy!
