Green beans are fun

We didn't get our new door this morning because at the last minute, the door installation people suddenly realized it might rain today.

No shit. It's been raining steadily for A WHOLE WEEK without a break. You'd think they might have seen it coming and not scheduled a door installation for the next day. All those news stories about flooding and such, not to mention the gray skies, the fog and let's not forget the water everywhere, maybe that should have tipped them off.

However, while I was sitting around at home trying to get some work done, wondering if the door people were ever going to show up, I was treated to some high entertainment. Apparently last night when we were making dinner, we dropped a whole (uncooked) green bean on the floor. Indy found it this morning and decided it was his new favorite toy. He gingerly grasped the tip of it in his teeth and carried it around the house, dropping it here and there to bat at it. He had no interest in it whatsoever as a food. The strangest thing is that he had no interest in it as a chew toy. Probably because it wasn't expensive, dangerous, inedible, or hard to replace.
