It's gorgeous outside. I sure would like to be sitting on a patio drinking lattés right about now.

That's exactly where I was, and essentially what I was doing approximately one hour ago... But, I could not get a damn thing done. I can't concentrate when the sun is shining and the birds are singing and the brain damaged guy named Ken is babbling on about how icey his street is...

I went for a walk. I didn't want to come back.

My maternal grandfather used to do that quite frequently after he retired from the postal service. He never owned a car (being a native Chicagoan, he never saw the need), and didn't like riding in them. He walked everywhere. After he moved to Gary, and lived near the lake, he would walk up and down the beach for miles. One time, he took the Greyhound up to Sault St. Marie, and walked back---keeping to the lake as much as he could, and sleeping on the beach or on park benches. When rangers or cops would roust him, he would show his postal worker's union card, and they would let him go. It took him 5 days, if memory serves correctly, to walk back. He was amazing.

Current temperature where I'm at

26 degrees (celsius). I was just sitting on a patio drinking a beer.

Lucky.

Not entirely lucky: It was my dad's Heineken Light from the fridge.

Re: Current temperature where I'm at

[sabotabby]

Oy. Why even bother?

I'm not one to say no to free beer.

I went out for lunch when it was 12. I was/am super-excited.

(And to think, a year ago, 12 would seem hellishly cold to me.)

[sabotabby]

No doubt. It went up to 10 yesterday and I flipped my lid.

[seilduksgata.livejournal.com]

Wow you're lucky - its minus 12 (celsius) here in Oslo which is pretty foul...

[sabotabby]

Yeah. It was about that cold a few days ago, which makes the heat wave even sweeter.

[elgordochico.livejournal.com]

Same. It's 49 F/ 10 C here. I just got back from outside; all the snow on ledges were raining on peoples' head.

[sabotabby]

Isn't it nice?

Well, until you think about what was in the snow.

[terry-terrible.livejournal.com]

Me too. It's a nice 60 degrees here in Reno. They say a snow storm is coming this weekend though.

[sabotabby]

:( I didn't know it snowed there.

The day has that beautiful smell that comes only after rain. This is the last proof I need that the world is upside down.

[sabotabby]

...I can't smell anything. I have a cold.
