My God it's hot.
Hot, sticky, blechy, horrid.
I have discovered a new beat the heat thing, though. As I was telling Nik the story of my Saturday (I dined out on that story all day yesterday), he handed me one of the frozen gel packs that they pack with the samples to rub on the back of my neck, and I remembered that I had a few of them in my freezer at home.
So when I got home after work I immediately pulled one out and stuck it in the back of my collar, alternating it with putting it on my thighs or inside my bra, until it was all melted and getting warmish, then I'd trade it for another frozen one.
I recommend it highly! I wish I could do it for the cats, but they don't like the dampness. They are all trying to sleep on the coolest surfaces possible--Monty doesn't even get hissy at Milo when he sits near him on the kitchen table, and if it's too hot for my cats to fight, then it's too hot indeed!
On Journal L the question of the day was "What do you do when you get writers block?" and my first response was that I just write anyway, but later I realized that my real trick is when in doubt, write about the weather.
So, now that I have legitimately written about the weather, I cannot think of anything else to say! So it seems that writing about the weather doesn't cure writer's block, it causes it!
Run for your liiiiiiives!
O, go read fiendish thingy instead. I'm sure she's got something good up today (and if she doesn't, she will when she reads this!).
Today's horoscope:
You'll feel better if you seek out the beauty in your environment. Smell the flowers; plant something; put up a pretty picture, etc.
One year ago today:
Yesterday was such a beautiful day that it was a sin to be indoors.
