It isn't unusual to get a day or two of overcast, almost-fall-like weather in the middle of August. On the other hand, we've been experiencing it for most of the week.
The count of three isn't a plan. It's Sesame Street.

I'm having this vaguely mexican thing I make with black beans, corn, tomatoes and rice. This batch isn't so great because my spices were packed. It really does need the cumin and coriander. But, it doesn't suck.

Oy. Why does faxing have to be So Damn Hard from my iBook? Especially the part where the modem wouldn't hang up and I had to warm boot the laptop?
On the other hand, I've faxed all my pages to the Unemployment lady. :: fingers crossed ::

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Suuuuuuuucked to be outside
While we were there, Annabel developed cabin fever, since she's used to a nice big playground at daycare, being two blocks from a park at our house, etc. She'd beg to go outside. Sometimes I'd let her try if it was early or late enough, but most of the time she'd take a step or two out the door, frown in consternation, and announce, "I stay inside!" And since she's learning comparisons, she'll tell you that Alabama is hot but Seattle is coooollll.

The one day it rained, I chased the elder nephew outside to go get drenched. And then flouted the water restrictions and attacked him with the hose. We spent pretty much all day inside. Good thing it's a big house.

She'll get the subtext from that soon enough, too!

I think we've got it. It's been cloudy and barely cracking 70 all week, but today were supposed to be pushing 90.

Emmett had similar issues with Georgia in August. Plus he hated the bugginess down south. (San Francisco is very nearly bug free.)
