Hot, humid night. Unbearably humid. Have got the A/C turned to 11.

After a few hours of fucked up storms...now it's partly cloudy with some sun coming through... Oh, global warming, if you only existed... Still might rain before then end of the day. Supposed to rain on and off...for the next seven days.... Still tropical humid. Nearly unbearable.

It rained last night and now it's cool, and damp, and overcast, and wonderful! What I imagine Seattle to be like most of the time. Or the better parts of Canada. Something like that. It's supposed to be cool and damp all week. Like a switch was flipped right on cue, Labor Day, oh, it must be fall! The nights are almost cold. We're coming into my ( Read more... )

Know what's awesome? When you wake up in the morning, look at the news, and find out your city has fallen into anarchy while you were sleeping. Great! Bridges are up again. The past three weeks there have been running gun battles in the streets between people. They think it's gangs. They don't know. The new police superintendent is totally and ( Read more... )
