rkoldBlah, it's more than 90 today with high humidity and my house has no air con and I just want to melt. The HP fan-fic I love which introduced me to the joys of Snupin has mysteriously vanished and I never saved it to my hard drive because it was 80 or so chapters and didn't seem worth it. I also managed to forget the Tipping Point at home when I went to the gym, so I didn't get to read it. So much sadness.
I've also decided that it is hard to be maven. I so want to share advice and try to help people, but then people keep doing dumb things. I seriously can not fathom why you would pay $100 to do a SunRise Tour of Kyoto. You can do the same tour by cab and skip the Kyoto Handicrafts Center which is when push comes to shove a tourist trap. Yes, the items they sell are nice and traditional but you can get the same items for the same price in the Narita Airport and not have to lug them around Japan with you.
I've also been frustrated with the person on DoA was in Japan for GW and insists it is "kin-Yobi" in Japanese. She also doesn't seem to grasp that there are no trains that are reservation only. She ignored my posts on DoA about how expensive train travel is and didn't get a pass only to later post, "oh yeah, everyone get a pass cause it was $300 to Kyoto." ~.~
Did I mention it is incredibly hot and humid.
About the only good thing I can think of is many of my seedlings now have a second set of leaves, that and I am so getting pizza tonight.

Hopefully cool weather will be coming your way soon. It was really unbearable here in the Land of Corn during the last few days, but things are cooling off now. My sinuses don't much like the stormy weather, but the coolness makes it all worthwhile. ;-)

Date: 2007-07-10 12:48 am (UTC)We decided to put off the pizza until tomorrow night when it is supposed to be worse. ;;_;; They think at the end of the week it might do better, the problem is my house is 83 inside and that is just a little too warm.
I keep hoping that at least maybe my plants will like the sun and heat, I hope. I have been trying to water them a lot.
Thank you though for the kind wishes for cooler temperatures. *hugs*
