skreidleToday at work, I learned that we're apparently getting both bonuses and a small raise, which seems odd in light of the potential change of hands of the contract in a couple months, due in large part to cost-related issues. Oh well.
After work Christina came over, we had an appetizer-without-dinner of the chips and salsa that Nathan bought along with other groceries yesterday (yay!), then read through an assortment of Highlander (season 3) DVD extras before watching an episode, and then watched Storm Stories on the Weather Channel--a blizzard in the Rockies, and crazy flash flooding in Vegas last August. In current weather, apparently there's severe wind/rain headed for Long Island, and recently snow in the south! Wacky. However, it seems the rain's going to stop shortly here in NoVA, which pleases me. :)
Speaking of rain, several days ago I did an informal study of required-by-VA-law headlight usage with windshield wipers, along an 11-mile stretch of Fairfax County Parkway. It seems that, on average, 20% of drivers in that area are either ignorant of the law, or willfully breaking it. Idiots. :P
Tucker points out the actual law, though, which explicitly states that a driver can't be pulled over solely for a violation of the clause pertaining to mandatory headlight usage during inclement weather!
