Still so fucking humid.
It's like slogging through an aquarium around here. Definitely not October weather.
Angel: I appreciate you guys looking out for Connor all summer. It's just—he's confused. He needs time. That's all. Fred: Right. Time, and some corporal punishment with a large heavy mallet. Not that I'm bitter.

We've been lucky on the humidity front for the most part, but the temperatures have been the high 80s.

Harvest is late in southern MN, which is a bad thing.

Woke up at 2AM to the smell of smoke, and incredible wind blowing. Turns out there's huge fires in Napa and Sonoma counties, thousands of people evacuated, maybe hundreds of homes destroyed. It still smells like smoke here, 60 miles to the south. Air quality is bad so no run this morning.
My BIL's sister and her husband were evacuated at 2AM but are otherwise fine.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Gah, fires + wind advisory = badness. The wind last night blew my closed umbrella over and my canoe off its sawhorses, must have been awful for the firefighting.
The Napa/Sonoma fires are not super near me (looking at a map. 20-30 miles for the closest), but the smoke is very very bad. I could see it billowing over the hills as I drove to work this morning and it's very twilight-y lighting-wise.

Herding cats for fun
good to know DH was right about our three am smoke smell wake up call being far to the north. After another unseasonably hot day, too. How lovely, more fire season!

not your mom's socks.
I dropped in here to check on buffistas and fires. Staying to send hugs, especially to Jilli and Kat (and all the things I missed bc post bankruptcy) but there are enough for everyone.

Yeah, the air quality is awful. No run for me today, although I may take the dog for a walk later...

Just dreary & depressing here. Great day to not be at work, idk?
Have rearranged a room and need to go back up there with a trashbag. But eating yellow squash with chile lime salt first.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
