you never watched The Unit, Amy?
No. I probably haven't watched a military show since MASH.

I'm a winter baby. The endless sun means glare and heat and burning. I do greet the sun happily in spring, but then it Just.Keeps.Coming. The best times are spring and fall--and nighttime in the summer (if it weren't for the mosquitoes and whatever it is that lives in the grass around here)

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Is it the Solstice? huh. All I knew was it was a loooong day, and not necessarily in the good way. But it ended with cheap sushi and good ice cream, so that's good.

Balls, I turned my phone off earlier and forgot to turn the ringer back on, so I missed a call from my awol brother. Turns out the house in Boulder doesn't get good cell coverage so he hasn't gotten most of our texts & voicemails. And then of course he forgot to give me the landline number, so I had to email him for that...
argh. Anyway, here's to tomorrow being a better day than today...

It's 80 at 6:25am here. This does not bode well, but at least I'll be in the too-cold AC of work for most of the day....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I wish I had taken off today as a beach day! But now it's too late to.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Glad he's all right, Consuela.
I'm forever turning off my phone and then forgetting about it. Kim gets irritated because her primary means of communicating with me is by text.
Connie, I'm a summer baby, but I agree with you - spring and fall are best. I don't understand people who walk out into 90 degree heat and bask happily like little lizards.

foreign concept. I wilt. Especially with the added bonus of humidity.

I'm forever turning off my phone and then forgetting about it.
Totally me. Or it rings and I don't answer it. I'm rather phone phobic. I like it as an outbound device of getting stuff I need or want. But as a receiving device? Sort of indifferent.

This is me until I get too hot. Then I'm whiny. Keep in mind, I wear wool sweaters in LA all year long, but especially in the mornings.
