We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Making a big batch of bolognese and bruschetta for tonight, just opened a bottle of wine to breathe.

Oddly, I had to explain to my mom why I am so pale. Vigilance, mom. I do look better with a bit more sun than I've allowed of late, true. However, I have permanently pigmented skin under my eyes/top of cheekbones courtesy of years of sun at 4000 ft. And let's not even talk about my poor shelf. I really don't need to do any more damage.

It got up to 99° here today, with a heat index of 108°. I may look into moonlighting in a meat locker somewhere. (Actually, indoors it's comfy enough as I watch my power usage meter spin like a quisinart, but my car felt like a blast furnace around lunchtime.)

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I want to be in bed by ten, so I am off to make a salad for tomorrow, grill some chicken for it, cook some fish for tomorrow's dinner and maybe get some veggies steamed. If I do it all at once I think it will minimize the hot inside the apartment.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I got more color in two hours at the beach yesterday than I did in four days in Vegas, most of which began and ended in the pool. I guess it's true about the 10-2 business.

Also, I left the A/C in my bedroom on low while I was gone, and even with the window in the living room open, it was surprisingly not-hot in my apartment when I got back.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I want to go to the beach. I should do something about that.

Like maybe go to San Diego for the weekend.

Or Hawaii.

I'm guessing that there are beaches closer to you, but since I spent six hours on a bus for my 2-hour beach trip, I have no leg to stand on.

I was invaded by small children. Damned, my apartment is completely fascinating to a 4 year old (T came by with 2 of her cousins, one of whom is 4.) But oh my gosh, it is not childproofed. No near misses, but I had to be really vigilant.

but you can't swim at the beaches near me.

Did you know the children, sarameg?

Um, Lee, I kind of forgot you don't live in LA anymore.
