Random Commuter Thoughts - Subtropical Update
I'm going to go ahead and O-fficially classify this as one of Dee Cee's nastier summers.
I noticed this morning that the air is starting to stink in a way that reminds me very much of the summers I spent on the Texas Gulf Coast - the excessive humidity traps all that sweat, garbage, diesel and general stink, then the heat cooks it up. Only thing missing is the smell of salt, which I almost imagined I was picking up today.
Geh, as I say.

** Yes I realize this is a cheap shot, I just figured I'd take it before INDCent Bill did. **

Posted by: Robert the LB at July 15, 2005 08:34 AMNo quibbles with this post. the air is, indeed, oppressive.
Posted by: Bill from INDC at July 15, 2005 12:02 PMMiserable indeed. We moved most of my crap into a storage pod today and I thought I'd never dry out.
