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 already know what I'm gonna call her. Got a name all picked out...

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.

cooking is almost done. 2 salads with grilled chicken for each. Fish in the oven now as is a tray of sliced beets.

Well, I do now! T is the neighbor girl I've helped with her lines. Her cousins were over visiting.
