For an early April day, it sure is gloomy!
Starting early Wednesday morning, it began to rain here in North Texas.
It poured quite hard around 3 AM and this continued on into the early morning hours. The rain had all but moved out of the area by 9 AM, and the concrete was dry by 3 PM.
My dad had come from work early, so we decided to head out a Chinese restaurant for lunch. My mom and nephew were in tow, too. We packed into the car and headed for the restaurant around 12.15. As we came up to a stop light at an intersection of a medium street and a major north-south thoroughfare in my town, my mom commented on a person coming up on the other side of the street.
Sometimes, I feel like the fucking Emperor of China in the car, so I pull my head up to look past my dad to see the person crossing the street. PEASANTS, I say. FUCKING PEASANTS.
I looked past my dad to see the person come up to the curb.
He looked right, then left, and proceeded to cross the street.
When I saw the person, I gasped a bit.
It was the pharmacist from two weeks ago!
My mom quipped as the guy crossed the road, "He has a blue shirt in his hand. He must work at Kroger." He had in his hand a blue collared shirt. He had blonde hair, and it was parted on the right.
It was him.
As he continued past the intersection, we turned left, and bye-bye forever.

When we arrived at the restaurant, and after we were seated, there were these two guys in Army dress.
One of them looked like Mr. Ward. Set phasers to CUM.
I tweeted "Hello Soldier Mon."
Set phasers to CUM TSUNAMI.
