water tower blather
its been horrifically hot here
temps were up in the 90s
for days
then
sunday evening
it poured
oh my
did it ever come down
it was over cast and not much cooler on monday
tho the sun
did
actually break through
in the afternoon
as i was heading home
it started to cloud up again
after paris
i am finely tuned
to looking up
at
brooding
threatening
skies
as i headed down 80th street
i said a sort of prayer
hey you up there
please let me
get down the block
before the skies
open up
rain
down
i made it with nano seconds to spare
seriously
i pushed the door open
as
the rain
began
whew
toonman insisted
no fans
or
air conditioning
were needed
after watching
the killing
a brooding drama set in soggy seattle
i went to bed
fell asleep quickly
waking near dawn
freezing
cold
huddled
under the sheet and cotton blanket
wishing
for the comforter
i think toonman felt it too
because
seconds later
the cozy comforter was covering us both
tuesday was 40 degrees cooler
than its been
thankfully
the air conditioning in my office
is not on full blast
i really dont like the cold air
at
all
that photo?
i couldnt resist
adding my name
to what was
then
a blank billboard
at the intersection
of
west 72nd street
at the cross roads
of
broadway and amsterdam avenue
i missed celebrating my sister's birthday here on the blog
she had a major birthday tuesday
it was a big one
but she doesnt look her age
so i am not going to tell you how old she turned
happy belated birthday little sister!
