just a moment ago i turned into my street and there was a company repairing/replacing bricks on the chimney of the first house i passed. my mind starting racing with “what things around my house could i ask them to do while they are working on my street since i might get a good deal because its convenient for them.”

i thought maybe the front of my garage where i intend to face the foundation with round stone for a more “countryside chalet” look.

the point of the story is i was planning/imagining/strategizing my approach to this man and delivering my question, but in my imaginary scenario my leading line was “hey, do you do masonry?”

sorry, thats the whole story. i just realized in that moment what a stupid stupid stupid question that is to ask a man who is repairing bricks on a chimney and it sounded like a good joke.
