I normally have to water my bonsai trees twice a day in the summer, but it’s going to be three times a day for the next few weeks, at least. I watered at 7:30 and by 3:00, some of them were completely dry. So, I spent 10 minutes watering, and now I’m hot and exhausted. In high school, I’d walk home 2 miles from school in 100+ degree heat, and it only made me thirsty. I feel old, desiccated and overheated.
Are you wondering why I’m talking about the weather when the world is falling apart? I just need to feel a little normal, between bouts of existential dread and desperate sorrow.
Well, it’s almost July, so 90’s+ is about par for the course around here. But I like to stay inside anyway, in the AC. That thing you have up there in the sky – it’s got quite a glare to it.
Oh man. Sorry to moan, but it’s so cold here on the other side of the world. It’s supposedly 10°C but it feels like about 2°. It seems I’m hardly ever at a comfortable temp, whatever the time of year. Too hot or too cold. Dammit weather!
