Random thoughts...

So I've been getting a little lackadaisical with the whole blogging thing. There's not much new to really write about. Work is still insane, England-move plans are still creeping along, the house is still in need of major work, yada yada yada.

The only things of note are:

1) The British Consulate confirmed acceptance of our visa applications and noted that processing would likely take 5 business days.

2) This weekend I paid $45 to fill up the Beetle! It wasn't even on empty - or even close to it. 3/4 empty, maybe. I only got about 24 mpg last tank, but I blame that on my lead foot.

3) I nearly forgot our wedding anniversary was Sunday. We didn't do anything in particular... just more housework. We've been married seven years; there's just no point in marking the occasion every year.

4) I had my first Five Guys burger and fries last week. Since they only cook their burgers well-done, it started out behind the potential curve. It was alright, a little wet and messy (I had cheese, grilled onions and mushrooms, pickle, mustard and ketchup). The fries were decent enough, not really crisp enough for my taste, although I did like the malt vinegar. Definitely not the second coming in terms of burgers.

That's all. I didn't say they were exciting things of note.
