Pepper spray ring will almost definitely be used by accident

This ring hides a secret, and that secret is pepper spray. If someone gets a little too close, simply pull the latch on the side to give them a face full of hot, burning powder. What could possibly go wrong?

The included spray causes "inflammation of the eye capillaries and all other mucous membranes, resulting in immediate temporary visual impairment, difficult breathing, coughing, choking, sneezing, severe burning sensations to the eyes, nose, throat and skin, and nausea, with acute symptoms and discomfort lasting for 45 minutes," which sounds downright delightful. Luckily, a ring isn't something you'd fiddle with while bored or antsy, so there's really almost no chance at all that you will accidentally spray yourself in the face with this while stopped at a red light or something. Nope, no chance at all.

My phone says it's 100° in LA right now. If only it could periodically have been 90° more often during the actual summer, this wouldn't be necessary.

I'm getting a new work laptop this afternoon. I don't want a new laptop. I like my old laptop. Grump.

so there's really almost no chance at all that you will accidentally spray yourself in the face with this while stopped at a red light or something. Nope, no chance at all.

I'd give it a week before I sprayed myself in the face.

That'd totally be my problem with a false tooth filled with cyanide. One crunchy pretzel too many....

Only 100 ita? I feel like I am melting. I usually like all the walking at my job, but today NSM.

It's either 104 or 114 near me, depending on which of the usually-conflicting weather stations in my neighborhood are right. Since it's supposedly 108 in Hollywood it must be 114 here. I never realized until moving here again that summer really happens from July -October in Cali.

Man, I thought I was having a super productive day and then I look up and it is already time to go get mac. Poop. I wanted to get so much more done today. If I am lucky he will have done all but his reading homework and I will be able to get another hour or two of chores/work done.

Saturday was the first day here in forever that the high wasn't over 80°, and of course my dad started moaning about the heat not being on in the house. In September. (Mind you, it got chilly enough indoors early this morning that heat wouldn't have been out of line, but last night it was 75° and he was dressed in an undershirt, shirt, and sweater while complaining.)

Phone says 111° in LA now. Under 100 where I work. Whew. Still, I opted for a smoothie for lunch, just to celebrate the heat.

Yeah, my dashboard widget is telling me 111, too. Thank the goddess the AC here was fixed. I think I'm not going outside 'til after sundown. When I went outside last night to check out the hullabaloo around the So Pas brushfire, I was thinking it was hot enough I could be standing outside buck naked and not get goosebumps (unusual for me).
