"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I can read the words but they make no sense. Heat stroke, perhaps?

That was my theory.

It's going to be in the mid 90s and humid today, but at least everything is air conditioned in the South.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The sun is a mass of incandescent gas...

Much like a gigantic nuclear furnace, no?

Hands up if you want to be the first on your block to punch someone for saying "Hot enough for you?" or something equally inane.

Rather than hit someone, I think I'd rather respond, "NO! ON PLANET ZYCRON, WHERE I AM FROM, THE MEAN AVERAGE TEMPERATURE IS 238 OF YOUR EARTH FAHRENHEITS!"

hand. up.

Really though, I can't complain, given I'm in an overly cool office at the moment. My apartment might get into the high 70s, but will still be bearable. I'm just trying not to think about it.

I hate plowing through email after a vacation. Why did I come back?

Oh, right. Paycheck.

The forecast here is temperatures around 100° with heat indexes of up to 110° for the next three days. Can it be fall yet?

Happy birthday, Juliana!

Hope those of y'all killed ded by the Li'l Sphere cuteness are amply recovered today, at least enough to receive my words of thanks.

Nutty: Also, future drummer on your hands.

Yeah! We’ve rigged our drum set (my wife plays a bit) so that he can reach most of them. It’s a racket, but he loves it.

Beth: but the cutest part - when he got distracted by the book. awww...

He loves books, and Hand Hand Fingers Thumb is eminently distract-u-lating.

DavidS: What kind of parent lets his kid dance around in tie-dye like that?!?

Hey, I'm a cruddy dad. To be fair, though, I silk-screened a picture of Max in his wolf suit on the front.

Msbelle: Lil Sphere did kill me dead, but so did his dad laughin and talking behind the camera.

He's a funny un.

Sorry for the ego-rambling. This post has been brought to you by the letter “I” and the number “1”.

Can it be fall yet?

Can it just be fall all year round please?

Oh dear. These are the times when I hate having no AC. I did close my windows and curtains this morning in an attempt to seal in the cool air, but I will already be roasting from driving home in my non-airconditioned car that has sat on asphalt for 9 hours.

However, since there are usually only about 4 days a year when things are unbearable, I hate to shell out for AC.

Now there's I plan I can get behind.

I've taken refuge in the library across the street so I don't have to have my AC running all day. I'm thinking PotC when it closes.
