    Nooope. Send it our way please sir.

    I live in a very dry climate. The winter and early spring has some rainfall but summers are just dry and sunny. Weirdly the whole time I was in the hospital it rained. Not complaining. Our grass looks gorgeous. I run the sprinklers almost never because water is priced somewhere is the neighborhood of gold. Fucking water rate hikes.

    I should put some pants on and do a walkabout on the yard. The weather is crisp and all the flowers are blooming. I need front porch chairs.

    I'd gladly send some of the excess rain we have been getting your way. We've had 7 inches of rain since Monday and the forecast has high rain chances for the next 7 days. Uggghhh.

    Not quite at toytoy's level but supposed to be 108* by mid week.

    My Memorial Day bbq yesterday was a fail. CostCo sells some premade carne asade that is out of this world. Bought all the tortillas, guac, cheese, chips, salsa etc, go to Costco and they don't have it anymore. Damn it. Had to grab some burgers and wieners instead.

    Paloma's are great - but I like to use grapefruit juice and an Aperol float. So good.

    It was 34 C here today that’s about 100 here. Freakishly hot for this time of year, and after such a miserable April it is just scorching now.

    Perfect beach weather for nobody to use. C’est la vie.

    Man I kinda miss living in a in a high rainfall area. 7"! This area's annual rainfall is a little over 10''. I wouldn't trade rainfall for our temps though. High 75F/low 55F. Crisp. Breezy. Low humidity makes the summers pleasant.

    How do you make that?

    I live about 100 miles south of GTE so it will be 108 before the weeks end also. Usually my city gets a breeze off the Delta that takes the edge off the heat. When the conditions are right, that breeze does not happen. It is going to be a long week.

    My wife is at the lake with our boys and I'm going up tomorrow, which means I have the house to myself for approximately 24 hours. First order of business is fucking with her. We have a nanny cam in our living room which she uses to watch the dogs and sometimes check on them when she's drunk and misses them more than she misses me. And since she's afraid of clowns, I took this picture, taped it to a coffee mug and put it right in front of the camera.

    I used to hate masks. There is an expectation to wear them when you've got the slightest hint of a sniffle here. On the trains, you get a lot of people mean muggin' you if they hear/see it. Which is hilarious because people will pull down their masks to sneeze. Since COVID hit, I've become a total "mask guy". I wear them out almost all of the time, and I've got some urethane ones that are breathable enough to jog in. They're not going to filter anything, but they definitely prevent the droplet problem. Plus, you get that extra hit of anonymity.

    It's not so bad in the Minato ward. I've noticed a lot more foreigners recently in my area. Whether or not it's an actual increase, or just higher visibility is unclear. I can always count on racism to shield my identity though!

    You can make rude faces at people and they don’t know. It’s fun.

    I have to imagine anybody working a corner store must have their nerves jangled into bits now. Imagine EVERYBODY briskly walking in your store in disguise.

    I would guess that Americans living in other countries are just as bad at quarantining themselves as the ones we have here at home.

    When the mask thing started, the best one I had at first was a balaclava. I decided that I did not want to wear that into a gas station or liquor store. Eventually, I found a flimsy surgical mask and have been wearing that in public.

    Well fuck me running. I hate gender reveals, except my brother in law is having his first born and my son’s middle name is his. Tannerite scares me. A lot. But it’s what they want.

    related: anyone know where I can buy bulk fire extinguishers?

    I think Kiddie will sell them directly to consumers if bought in bulk. Otherwise, you can contact the Home Depot Pro Desk, and they'll tee it up for you.
