What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.

My new favorite blog.

I like that blog too!

The hivemind may need a couple of weeks, but eventually it great minds think alike.

Creeping slowly over the hill, the sun seemed to catch the small village nestled in the valley by surprise, which is a bit unusual really, as you'd think that something with a diameter of 865,000 miles and a surface temperature of 5780 degrees Kelvin, and which is more normally seen from 93,000,000 miles away, wouldn't be able to creep anywhere, let alone catch anything by surprise.

Hee.

Of course, it creates the image of that little (hey, in astronomic terms it is not that big) sun trying to go all "boo!" from behind a wall, stepping all a-character-from-a-cartoon-ish quietly up until it gets there, and disappointed when all the people not in village say "made you look" because they already saw it.

There are awesome clouds here, puffy cotton behind dark spiderwebs.

I love it when the sky actually has depth (or height, I guess) - when it's possible to see that above the clouds there's not just that blue empty whatever, but rather a whole lotta space, thanks to the other clouds that have enough room to roam there, too.

"Die, commie pigs!" grunted Sergeant "Rocky" Steele through his cigar stub as he machine-gunned the North Korean farm animals.

Seriously? Because that sentence is fucking HILARIOUS. (Okay, to me, at least.) (Seriously.)

Sadly the sky is now just slate gray. Booooooring.

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

Well, as they say, the sky is always grayest just before it turns a different shade of gray....

The days are definitely getting shorter. Due to how close I am to the mountains, I was able to drive to work and get in the building without being in direct sunlight the whole way. My own personal equinox, or something.

Not in SF. It's blue skied and beautiful.

“Not dead yet!”

It's been raining off and on all day. I'm in heaven. The only downside is I have to take Abby to the orthodontist in a couple of hours and go pick up the dogs from the groomer.

Punishingly Intricate

Just ated too much thai food. Am sooo sleepy. I really want to nap on a bench in the park across the street. It's lovely and hot but not too hot not humid.
