I turned the ac back on before leaving for work this morning. I've not needed it since I got back from the west. It's supposed to hit 97 tomorrow. Yesterday morning, I woke up cold with the windows open. Weirdass September.
Mal: That's not what I saw. You like to tell me what really happened? Book: I surely would. And maybe someday I will.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Wow -- happy birthday!

Many happy returns, Amy. Twenty-two!

57 with rain coming down here in VT, tho' we're supposed to get up to 81 later!
We had a fairly pleasant time getting lost yesterday -- wanted to find Sterling Gorge, which has a geology path. I trusted in my GPS, which if I can reconstruct from Google Maps, was trying to put us on a dirt road -- literally, two tire ruts separated by not too low grass -- that would have taken us up to it. So we went back down to Stowe and tried to remember the half-forgotten directions, which took us way to hell and gone. Stopped by a not-entirely promising storefront which turned out to be an outdoor outfitters which actually had really great stock.
While the nice proprietor gave me accurate directions (and drew a map), my friend Pat wandered around, trying things on, and ended up buying $80 worth of clothes, so I think it's a fair deal for them being friendly and helpful.
And the directions turned out to be good, and we made it to the gorge, and thus another good day in VT was had.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I *think* the weather broke here. Those are a dramatic 8 or so degrees indoors, anyway. Differences between wearing pants (US version) to sleep as well as covering my feet.
Because I am just that idealistic and delusional.
No, that's where you live. Unless you live in TV, which is its own very special brand of delusion, but reality they are supposed to be communicating "may", whatever words their jurisdiction chooses.
Old job called twice last night after 10 (I found out it was them this morning--three calls would have been a home crisis), to ask if I broke something that night.
Uh, no? I did a favour for you on Sunday.

Happy Birthday, Amy's oldest!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I'm at Nora's home.
