It's 76 in NYC now, but is supposed to get up to 98 by this afternoon. Ugh.
Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Swouncing
I never understand what exactly the different ways of writing a word mean when there's a pronunciation discussion, which makes it all a very strange stream of posts to follow, all looking like they're almost saying the same, when they actually don't, and that slight difference is the heart of it all, but I can't tell what it is. I need a little microphone to the hivemind's mouth (does it have a mouth?).
Cutlery at least reads differently, even though upon catching up on a few dozens of posts, I can't make up my mind what I used to do in general before starting to read the discussion.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
The "ahnt" pronunciation is with the ah sound that exists in Hebrew. The same ah sound as "father" (or "abba," for that matter.) The "ant" pronunciation is with the one that doesn't, like the same sound as "hand."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OMG HOT. I don't know if I have a sweatier face than the average person or what, but I don't understand how people keep makeup on in the summer. I would be SOOL.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
And Zeljko Ivanek has apparently aged about two decades since I last saw him on The Inside.
He's always looked kind of cadaverous.
After the Federer/Nadal match yesterday, I was glad Federer won (since there were a couple of times I was pretty sure he wouldn't), but I must declare Nadal officially ADORABLE.

Mineral powder foundation (i.e., Bare Escentuals, Aromaleigh, et al.) stays on even when you sweat. For reals.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I find Federer extremely adorable, especially when he cries when he wins--at times you can't tell the winner from the loser because of it.
Nadal really grew on me.
Did anyone see the women's final? How was it?

whoa! Might have to get some of this. I don't even bother with makeup on hot days.
