We'll need to practice some more...
Here it is
not yet 7:30 in the morning and I’m sitting outside guzzling my obligatory
second cup of coffee. The heat is already 120 and the humidity is also already
120. Or so it seems. Here in New England we’re just not used to this. Yes,
short spells are fine. It makes jumping in 0 degree Atlantic Ocean water
perfectly acceptable. And the resulting octave change of voices too.
Fortunately that’s temporary. At any rate, this long term heat thing that’s
been going on for what, six months now, is enough. How about a break?
The quiet
stillness of the morning has now been pierced by the tick, tick, tick of the
farm type oscillating lawn sprinkler that my wife of two months has turned on.
I think it’s a test. Now that the lawn is being watered, the grass is going to
grow and I’m going to have to cut it. In the heat. And the humidity. And then
she is going to remember the new weed whacker that has been sitting in the box
now for two weeks in the garage. Can’t wait. I think the birds have stopped
chirping. Must be a sign…
Cook out with
the kids planned for later. I’ll just tell her cutting the grass will ruin the
flavor of the food. I think that will work. Ya, that’s it.
Stay cool
and enjoy your day.

update – crap, she just asked me to cut the grass…
