Two of today's four meetings got cancelled. I might get some work done after all.
Maybe.
So there is something I can do, besides scream like a woman?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Henry Rollins once tried to sell me a kitten.

Can't say I'm surprised. Do tell!

Good ghod, it's 97 out here in PA. And probably not cooler back in MA!
I have hung pictures and moved furniture until Mom is satisfied, so soon I can escape the Old Ladies Penitentiaryher retirement community, and not a minute too soon....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I assume this is for me....
I went to see him do a reading for Pissing in the Gene Pool. Afterwards, I went up to have him sign my copy. I told him to write "whatever you think is appropriate."
He signed my book, "Lukewarm and transparent - like most people."

Plus major league humidity. Whereas in Utah it's 97, but with 6% humidity. Bad enough, but if I can lay motionless in a shadow it's not too horrific.
I don't think I could bear to go back to Pennsylvania in summer.

Avoid DC at all costs - it's just as bad, possibly worse. As one writer described the air quality in the summer, "it's like trying to breathe clam broth."

Huh. I can see how that wouldn't be what you might have wanted...at the same time, I wonder if he was talking about himself.
Lukewarm and transparent - like most people, Henry (is).
He has certainly said stuff like that about himself in the stuff I've heard.
One flash of this came in the first episode I watched, where he interviewed Oliver Stone. Stone came in and made some comment about feeling like a child because the overstuffed chair they sat him in was really the size of a loveseat. (Kevin Smith quite cutely just curled up in it)
Henry was totally thrown and went on to fumble some apology...'we. have. um. big. chairs. um.' And then caught himself being a total pratt. The look on his face was something like 'what a dick am I?'

From the "things could be worse" department....
At least we're not all on Mars. Mars currently has a dust storm that's thousands of miles wide. Occasionally Mars will get a dust storm that covers the entire planet.
