stupid heat is stupid

At this stage, I am willing to concede that it is uncomfortably hot.

So, you may have noticed that I am posting approximately every 14 seconds. I'm on holiday (kind of)! I have time to tell everyone everything! Sorry. It will probably slow a bit when I get real job, or as I wean myself off my Internet addiction. Right now it's particularly bad because there's the carrot of email-from-J being dangled, in addition to all my usual curiosity about possibly finding out what's happening with People.

Luckily for you guys, I have no camera so I can't take photos of all the stuff I want to show you, like our backyard and my filing. I did my filing! I also stuck brightly coloured paper over all the badly-written labels from yesteryear on my file-o-stuff. And then brightly coloured paper over the file itself. And also in the inner door of my cupboard. And also on blank pages of my journal.

I feel like I'm laying in colour for lean days, when I get a job and have no time again and go back to rushing between bluestocking and work and greek and all the other things I want to fit in.

It is indeed uncomfortably hot. I am looking forward to Wednesday! I am enjoying your chirpy updates :)

Psst, I haven't seen you in approximately forever. Since you apparently have spare time these days, catch-ups may be in order.

(also: If you have no camera you should draw hilarious pictures of things you want to show us instead!)

To the first suggestion: Yes please, that would be lovely.

To the second: No thanks, that would be terrible.

Thank you for the darling card! It's gone straight to the pool room, as it were.

Yay! Last night I had a dream about all you guys reading it. Except that someone had written a 'translation' on the blank side of the card, which was mostly just a lot of very rude jokes, and so everyone was laughing as they read it (but in a nice way).

I would like to write old-fashioned 'thank you' cards more often, it gives me such pleasure to feel like I've properly acknowledged other people's nicenesses.

Not for the first time this summer I'm patting the portable aircon in my bedroom. A night sitting in the Matilda Bay last summer prompted it, and it's the best thing I've ever bought.

We have some little fans, but they always seem like more trouble than they're worth.

it is very hot, isn't it? I go from a palatial airconditioned farm house to my house in maylands and its a terrible adjustment to make :(

Sometimes staying still and drinking lots of iced water helps. Sometimes.
