Humans are weird. I prefer the company of dogs, bikes, and saws, which I'm told were actually invented by humans.

As I get older, everything seems to be to damn loud.
I thought I was supposed to go deef in m'dotage. |
Neighbors are having a pool put in. On the one hand, it's kind of cool to watch, and the hole they've got so far provided a very clear object lesson to the kids about why we don't have basements in Texas: there's about 18 inches of dirt, and after that, it's solid limestone. But that means I've had to listen to a steady soundtrack of jackhammering for the last two days. Really hope today's the last day.

...and hell no you can't use the pool!!

Psh... Don't need to. We have 3 neighborhood pools within walking distance, and another 4 that are just a few minutes by car. If it's raining and you don't mind paying, you have your choice of 8-10 indoor pools within a 15-minute radius. It's not a luxury item around here, just a home insurance hazard.

Damn. I'm not aware of any public pools. Do wave pools count?
Ya got no pool, and you wanna swim around here, ya go to a motel. One that has a pool.;) ETA: Or the creek. |

That looks like a great resource, but vulnerable.

With the recent torrential rains, the water treatment facilities were overwhelmed and Austin was put on a "boil water" notice for over a week. That's never happened before that I can recall. I kept thinking that this is how the apocalypse starts: something mundane that just... keeps... going, and suddenly you're a month without clean water and the next shipment of bottled water from the north doesn't arrive and it's instant chaos.
