I’m so sorry, meara.
The smoke is really bad down here, too.
All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Weirdly, the sky is blue here this morning.

Air quality warning here today too.
I am so sorry, meara.

Even here we have haze and air quality warnings. The graphs in the paper comparing to previous years are yikes.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

It doesn't look as hazy here today as it did yesterday, but my entire respiratory system is screaming in pain. I can only imagine how folks are doing upstate and in Ontario this week.

It is weird hearing about smoke and bad air and not being in it. Masks and respirators help, if you have access to any - those masks with the valve that we aren't supposed to use for COVID are pretty sweet for smoke. It's one of those obvious things that I forget I can do so I am reminding those of you who are in it that it might be something to remember.

Yesterday was a surprise retirement dinner for my best friend at a Brazillian steakhouse. I got followed and accosted by a very aggressive panhandler on my way in, which I can't imagine working to solicit handouts. Maybe people who are scared of him throw money (rather than the punches I was tempted to)? Fortunately, good company and eating enough beef to satisfy a mountain lion salvaged the evening.
