The driveway repair isn't my birthday present. At least, not from Georg. It's conceivable but highly unlikely that anyone else would have re-gravelled my driveway as a gift. So the gravel fairies remain a mystery.
Georg thinks it was the city. He thinks they fixed it because the rut was right up against the edge of the road, and it might have been weakening the asphalt. It seems like a plausible explanation. Certainly more plausible than anything else I can think of.
Now I have two hopes: 1. that I do not receive a massive bill from the city for the driveway repair; 2. that I can somehow convince them that regrading the soil around my foundation is essential to the structural integrity of the road. Maybe I could tell them that the house is going to fall down and end up blocking the road.
In deck news, I am valiently fighting off a cold this weekend to work on e-cards for my site. If I can get the hang of MySQL, y'all will soon be able to send electronic postcards with images from my deck. After that, we'll tackle the secure order form. Which is a bit more serious. Have I mentioned how much I love OS X? None of this would be possible without it. Well actually it would, but it would require camping out at my office. This way is much better.
