THE GREATEST OLDIES OF ALL TIME

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

it's too hot for titles

Remember how toward the end of E.T. he got sick, and spent all of his time lying around lifelessly? That�s how I feel, because it has been 35 degrees Celsius (95 Fahrenheit) EVERY SINGLE DAY for the last very long little while. And every day and night it threatens to storm, and then at the last minute it wimps out. The very meticulously detailed watering schedule I had been working with has been revised to the following:

Thoroughly soak every possible square inch of soil/vegetable matter you can see, every time.

There is some sort of plant that I believe I have destroyed. One sprout of it at the very front of the front yard has leaves the consistency of antique paper that has barely survived a museum fire, the others being merely beigeISH and lank. I have, however, been noticing plants of this sort all over my general neighbourhood, that are noticeably wilted in contrast to the other, hardier plants around, and that phenomenon, I believe, will be the basis of my defense (otherwise, I might find myself clawing my way out of an early grave, planted amid the crispy root system of the parched garden).

Vance has been filling in fairly often as our team supervisor for the past couple of weeks, and his absence from his own zone seems to have somewhat revived his vibe with Viola; however, I don�t want to get my hopes up again if they are merely toying with me, and don�t actually intend to follow up this show of enthusiasm with a nice, sweaty encounter in the parking garage later. But tall skinny cute gay Mark will soon be rejoining our team, all the better to set him up with Don. Although I have also been toying with the idea of trying to get him together with a certain team supervisor, also skinny and named Mark. They could be skinny Mark and taller, skinny Mark.

Tonight after work NotSoSecret will whisk me and the cats away to his air-conditioned, sun-porched, barbecue-equipped, beer-stocked house for the weekend. I have been instructed to bring my bathing suit, in case we have to make a dash for the lake, and then stop at the casino to earn some more beer money. Happy weekend, everybody!!!
