I'm trapped!

They're resurfacing our street today. The only notice we got was a rolled-up piece of paper stuck in the screen door handle. Alan brought it in yesterday and plopped it down on the kitchen counter along with the mail. I was going through the mail, sorting out the junk mail to throw away, and just happened to spot this red piece of rolled up paper. We get a lot of junk in our door, and I just about tossed it without looking at it. Good thing I decided to read it. It was a notice telling us that they'd be surfacing the street today (lots of advance notice, eh?) and that we wouldn't have access to our driveway. It was a good thing I read the notice because otherwise Alan would have been trapped this morning. Last night he moved his car onto the street on the side of our house, where every other car from the entire neighborhood seemed to be parked. By the time he got up and went to work this morning, our street was already closed to traffic and had a lot of heavy equipment on it.

So I'm trapped. :-) My car's in the driveway, and my bike is in the garage, so if I go anywhere today it'll be on foot. And who wants to do that? It's supposed to be 95 degrees today. I'll just stay inside the cool house.
