    It is sunny as good today,yesterday we had a bad storm, severe thunderstorm, several branches knocked down. My daughter send me my Father's day card, with a picture of me and my daughter , it was taken back in April when she and her boyfriend came up to Illinois. My daughter tells me that there was extreme hot weather down in Tennessee and the weather was unbearable.
    I felt real delightful today, because it is sunny today, but yesterday was depressed and it makes me wanted to call my sister in Texas. I didn't have a chance to call her because I have things to do around the house. Why do overcast or cloudy(heavy) makes me depressed?
    I may looks forward to go out of town tomorrow.

    the dog pictures remind me of a day at work. the front of our shop is a big bay window and the parking lot is right in front of it. one afternoon we started to hear horn blasts a random times. at first we thought there was something wrong with the horn. on closer inspection i noticed there was a dog behind the steering wheel. i said, "i think that dog is honking the horn." a woman in the store said, "sorry, that's my dog. patience isn't one of her virtues."

    tomorrow, father's day, is the official beginning of summer. but it's been officially a texas summer for a couple of weeks now. last week, while waiting for a bus, a driver pulled up to ask me if i was all right. she hadn't noticed that the bus stop sign and just thought i had heat exhaustion. another day i tried putting an old painter's cap in the freezer to at least keep the head sweating down. but i couldn't even make it from my front door to the bus stop (up a hill and over one block) before the hat was as hot as the rest of me.

    now begins my time of estivation. i picked that term up from some nature show: it's summer hibernation; frogs and fish do it. i'm hoping to popularize the term.

    i've been listening to the local college radio. just heard a version of "jump in a line" (the harry belafonte song that ended "beetlejuice") by a "big beat a cappella" band out of austin called shrodinger's cats.

    now i'm listening to what i have just noticed is sort of a folk rock version of "baby got back"!

    triple digit heat and it's not even july yet.


    seems like summer gets hotter earlier every year.




By moonit on Monday, June 22, 2009 - 01:11 am:

    Went to the supermarket one night and heard a car honking - walked past a van and a little Jack Russell dog was leaping on the steering wheel to beep the horn. Very very funny. Thank god reese can't figure it out.


By patrick on Monday, June 22, 2009 - 10:07 am:

    no sarah. just texas.

    mexico wants it back. she's just turning the thumbscrews.

    i saw a dog on a jet ski yesterday at the lake.


By droopy on Tuesday, June 23, 2009 - 02:32 am:

    i've spent winters in mexico that were as hot as an early texas summer.


By Dr Pepper on Tuesday, June 23, 2009 - 11:55 am:

    I know my ex-sister in law whose her husband did spend times in mexico if tennessee are colder in winter times, they can't stand cold weather.


By droopy on Wednesday, June 24, 2009 - 02:17 pm:

    have to leave for my shift in about an hour and 20 minutes. it's 100 (the heat index is supposed to get up to 105). i put my shirt and a painter's cap with a wet headband in the freezer.


By Dr Pepper on Wednesday, June 24, 2009 - 11:03 pm:

    It was 93 degree with humidity, working in a warehouse without A/C define like a hell.


By droopy on Thursday, June 25, 2009 - 12:28 am:

    just before i rolled out the door, i put on the shirt and hat from the freezer. the shirt was ice cold - sort of like stepping outside on a chicago january. the cap was cold but also stiff and shrunk because it had been wet. with both on, in 100 degrees, i set off to the bus stop: up a hill and over a block.

    it kind of helped. my shirt had warmed down by the time i got to the stop, but the coldness kept me from being drenched in sweat. at the stop, i took the cap off and rubbed the frozen parts around my face and neck.

    i don't know if anyone made this connection, but i got the idea for putting clothes in the freezer from marilyn monroe in "the seven year itch."


By platypus on Thursday, June 25, 2009 - 01:10 am:

    I like to put sheets and pillows in the freezer in hot weather, but I never thought of freezing clothes. That is a brilliant idea.


By patrick on Thursday, June 25, 2009 - 10:49 am:

    on the contrary, ironing your sheets just before you jump in during the winter is pretty tops


By platypus on Thursday, June 25, 2009 - 02:26 pm:

    Back in the woodstove days, we used to hang our clothes over the stovepipe in the morning during the winter to warm them up, which was pretty damn excellent.


By semillama on Thursday, June 25, 2009 - 09:58 pm:


By droopy on Friday, June 26, 2009 - 12:24 am:

    sem - i have actually seen products like that in medical supply catalogs. they always seemed like more than i actually needed. if i were spending hours in the hot sun, yes. but all i really have to do is get to a bus stop. a frozen shirt is enough.

    i've been rolling around in 100+ weather for 20 years, and it's mostly no problem. the problem always comes when i stop rolling and go into someplace cool. for some reason, that's when the sweat starts pouring out of my body.

By Dr Pepper on Wednesday, July 8, 2009 - 10:41 am:

    platypus, tell me, how old are you anyway?


By ruff on Wednesday, July 8, 2009 - 10:42 am:

    *crickets*


By platypus on Wednesday, July 8, 2009 - 11:19 pm:

    I am 22 anions old. How much is that in crickets?

    My old dad told me that there's a lady from my Dentist's office and wanting to date me. It tunred into horrible nightmare as if I recalled my failure from my first marriage, but I declined.. I am better off without her....and told my old dad to layoff on it. He pestered it on me and told me that she wanted my E-mail, again told him "not interesting" and again, he pestered me ,grew the frustration out of me and told him again"fuck off ".

    well, ok---i read your stupid comments on the other thread and i'll give you a little clue: the watcher's wife didn't die.

    so get all twisty and whip yourself into a swirly lather over some other fictional bullshit!
    or maybe just pound some more whiskey, scarf a couple of pizzas and watch some witchy crap on tv!
    ha ha!

    happy smoking!
    drop me an email sometime!

    your idol,
    jack
