Summertime Indolence
It's difficult to come up with something even remotely meaningful to post here, or to convince myself that I should post it, whatever it is.
Still... the June was unusually rainy and cool; the rain was welcome after the unusually dry and warm May, but enough is enough.
The Midsummer passed nicely. I followed the traditions, and spent the holiday with my family, with sauna and traditional summer dishes (smoked salmon, pickled herring, new potatoes, grilled sausages, a variety of salads and, of course, beer and such).
Closer to the present, I attended the wedding of a couple I've been friends with for years. The ceremony was nice, the party afterwards excellent, and generally speaking everything went swimmingly. I'm now determined to refresh my dancing skills as soon as feasible; although I've never been much of a dancer, I used to be passable at waltz, tango, fox and a few others, but the lack of practice has wiped the steps from my muscle memory.
