It's Summer! Stop Complaining.

The honeymoon is over for now. It promises to be a real scorcher today and throughout the week. Just got back from the recycling center 4 blocks away and I am soaked to the skin. Checked the weather online to find the current local temp is 77' but feels more like 90'. I agree. And oh goody, the humidity is back with a vengeance. Another nice touch.

I really can't complain. We've had a week of lovely weather here with overnight temps in the 60s and 80s during the day. For that to happen in July is truly a gift. Besides, given what everyone else is dealing with this isn't so bad, I mean, being at the beach and all.

There are a couple of errands on the gay agenda today (includes purchasing some beer) after-which it will be another day off in a cool apartment trying to find some deviltry to get into. Maybe more searching online travel options for an October holiday, and perhaps a bit of shopping for a new Haversack - my very old one is about to give up the ghost, if you know what I mean. Although I have 2 backpacks I have difficulty wearing them for long periods of time because of the pressure put on my spine.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to wring out my shirt, put on a clean one, and hit the road. The sooner I get out there, the sooner I get back before the thunderstorms hit. Did I forget to mention the thunderstorms on the way? Sorry. Nothing for it but to put on the big-girl panties and cope with it. Yes that's it, just another delightful July day at the beach.

Of course, it won't be long before we're complaining about the cold and snow. Maybe that's what I'll focus on today...Jeebus, we're never satisfied!

More later
