It's not supposed to be 90 degrees at the end of October, dammit.
I hate to break it to you, but that's not uncommon in LA. My mom often reminded me that the day she brought me home from the hospital it was the middle of a blistering heat wave, probably over 100.
I have two napping kids, just woke up from one myself. Mmmm. That makes for a good day, heat wave or no. But I'm very stressed out about the fires in San Diego. One friend lives in the middle of the burn zone, and though I know she and her family are fine, I fear for their home. And my cousin lives just outside the mandatory evacuation zone, I have no idea if they've left their place yet or not.
Gotta love that dog poster.
Apparently it was something like 97 fucking degrees on Saturday in Phoenix. I'm getting married this week next year!
In not-that-bright questions, you getting married in Phoenix? Daytime wedding?
I'm still wondering about my 5pm wedding in a couple weeks. I guess I get to wear a long slightly showy dress.

Phoenix, daytime wedding/evening reception. I gotta stop procrastinating on figuring out how to control the weather!

Parrot Imitates Fire Alarm, Saves Family
MUNCIE, Ind. - A noisy parrot that likes to imitate sounds helped save a man and his son from a house fire by mocking a smoke alarm, the bird's owner says.
Shannon Conwell, 33, said he and his 9-year-old son fell asleep on the couch while watching a movie. They awoke about 3 a.m. Friday to find their home on fire after hearing the family's Amazon parrot, Peanut, imitating a fire alarm.
"He was really screaming his head off," Conwell said.
The smoke alarm had activated, but it was the bird's call that caught Conwell's attention.
"I grabbed my son and my bird, and got out of the house," he said
He was best "person" on Countdown yesterday.

Seriously! What kind of so-called "bride" are you anyway?

Oh I know it's not uncommon in LA. Even though I'm entering my third year here, though, my paradigm is still New England. My brain gets confused about heat waves this time of year. I suppose I might get used to it eventually, but I suspect I will be having the same grumble no matter how long I'm here.
