You guys…it’s 8:06PM (yeah, I know, 2006 hrs, but, “whatever”…) and it’s 91dgs outside…and I walked outside…and noticed a “chill” in the air…*NO SH*T*!!! I al-most put clothes on…what’s become of me?

The store-door-handles don’t burn the f*ck out of my hands anymore…I still drive around with my windows down, but I no longer forget my name or where I’m going…I know not to drink “the second beer,” because it has been outside with me for 10 minutes…I no longer sweat until it is 105+dgs and/or 30%+ humidity, whichever comes first…I haven’t seen my surfboards in weeks (in outside-exposed, un-air-conditioned storage) but, if they have heat-delamination, at least it’s cool enough that I can repair ‘em (the resin would dry like *that*…better back-off the catalyst). Ah, man, I think I’m one of *THEM* now…able to bring home a box of condoms (XXL, of course) without them exploding in the back of my car (VERY hard to explain at the car-wash…) I fear that I am at the point of “no deposit/no return”…I am Desert Folk…I’m going out to “the Coast” tomorrow…I guess I’d better pack the “moisture-wicking fleece” and a blanket or two…

Anyway, that’s my experience/story and I’m sticking to it…

Hey, I’m not kidding…it’s almost 2200hrs and it’s 85dgs and dropping…my outdoor candles have re-solidified into disgusting, grotesque but oddly-artistic shapes…the lizards move much more slowly…the same sprinkler puddles have been there for hours…a coat of paint took 10-minutes to dry…my spa-towel took at least an hour…I peed in the sideyard and it’s still there…

“Hot” is in the eye of the beholder…and those eyes are still moist…

OK, off to bed…maybe with a down comforter…
