feelin hot hot hot
So this is California again. It's in the high 80s temperature-wise, and there are hordes of little green flies plaguing the city, and us. I don't know which was more unpleasant today. Probably the flies, but it sure is hot too. We went to the beach this afternoon, which was great fun. Checking the temperature online just now I see that we're in a high surf advisory, and we can certainly attest to that: we were afraid to go deeper than up to our waists on Santa Monica beach, and we picked what looked like the calmest spot. About a half-mile north it looked like the breakers were reaching 15 feet or even higher, and looking from the pier towards the south we saw spray overtopping the Venice fishing pier.
Also proof of California: I went to the grocery store this evening, cause we didn't have any food, and I parked next to a hummer (H2) that was parked right down the middle of two parking spots. Even better, they were marked as 'compact only.' Don't you love entitlement?
