The to-do list on my phone currently has two items:

1. Coke, cobble stones
2. John has plenty of theories

I get the cobble stones - the cobbled lane by the theatre I work at is apparently listed, hence we can't replace it and will continue to twist our ankles and step in puddles in the dark. Someone suggested pulling it up and keeping the listed cobbles and whatever they're set in in a bucket, and I want to know what they *are* set in.

Coke, I have no idea. Buy some? Stop drinking so much of it? Investigate some aspect of it? I've got nothing.

"John has plenty of theories" pretty much has me going, "well, how lovely for him. Wish he'd share." It sounds like a line for my John-in-SG-1-one-night-stand fic, and it was put on the list at three minutes past one, which suggests it seemed like a good idea when it woke me up.

Now I'm just staring at it going, "Great. Theories on *what*?" and it's driving me nuts.

It's like trying to read back my minutes at work and realising that just because I wrote the notes, doesn't mean I can necessarily decipher my own shorthand, despite having a teeline certificate.

This is a problem. Sigh.

cobblestones

generally in between cobblestones there is gravel. You could use some gravel to fill in the holes. By listed do you mean historically or something. Most cities that have cobblestone also have a restoration person who can fix the street without distroying the historical part of it. My uncle is part of the Delaware Historical Society and is very knowledgable about that kind of stuff.

I don't think ours are gravel, unfortunately. I don't think they're traditional cobble stones either, actually, but they're definitely a pain!
