o my flist, let me tell you that trying to book a round-trip flight from savannah to bangalore and back again, especially when you also have to change a one-way ticket from boston-bangalore, is a PAIN IN MY ASS. especially when the managing director for whom you're doing this keeps making things complicated for you. well, more complicated

DRINK WATER!!! At least a gallon or more a day. STAY INSIDE. Tight clothing is miserable. Heels are miserable. Fans are your friend. Hang in there, hon.

i've been sucking down water like it's going extinct, seriously. i don't know if it's a gallon, tho. i mean, that's a lot of water. O.O and i haven't even considered sitting outside for lunch, much less actually done it. even in the shade! today is much more manageable and also rainy, so i think i might live.

Hopefully your heatwave will break soon - the UK's broke a few days ago and here in Berlin we are finally down to reasonably hot instead of stupid hot and humid with it. So much easier to exist in 25ºC and a nice breeze!

it broke today! with rain. :D i got dressed, went outside, and actually thought "wait, do i want to wear jeans?" i didn't. but i had to think about it!

reasonably hot is still hot, but i'm glad it's not humid any more. humidity is the worst.

Just watched the end of the 100. I was not expecting that!! They left so many hints about how they could go back to Earth, even right till the end I thought Monty would have dumped his algae back on the planet to re-terraform it. They totally got me with the reveal. Awesome show

[tsuki_no_bara]

i kept waiting for them to go back to earth too! i figured earth would eventually fix itself, tho. i mean, it never occurred to me that monty might use his algae to reseed the place. but no, he sent them to a whole new planet instead. surprise?

the heat broke over the weekend because it rained. :D now it's just damp. i definitely have the water-drinking down and "lazy" is my default state most of the time, so the not-exerting is easy. not sure about being naked at home, tho.... i don't want to put my naked ass on my couch, plus i have all the windows open which means the shades are partly open which means the neighbors could theoretically see the aforementioned naked ass, and i don't want to scare anyone like that. and yeah, people survived this shit for thousands of years without a/c, so we can too. just... with a lot of whining.

Ugh, I suck at paying attention - I think you are in Boston area, but not in the city proper, right?

I wonder if the not caring so much about neighbors looking in is a big city thing. I mean, it's not that I want my neighbors staring into my window, but I figure when you can look into 10 other apartments from your window (or where I live now probably 100 other apartments), surely one person's naked bod isn't that interesting?

Of course, the anonymity helps - I would never want to be naked in a shared house (even with my partner), but for some reason I don't care if it's randoms in the next building over, or just neighbors two doors down, since I'll never see them outside of the weird parallel universe that is those accidental moments when we both happen to be cooking at the same time.

Whining is A-OK in my books. I figure one of the first things we did after inventing language was finding words to describe our woes. It helps us to get through them 😊

greater boston, yeah. across the river. :D the weather is pretty much the same.
