Lounge of Tomorrow - Sooooo.....

Portland is experienceing a record heat wave. Record highs (102 yesterday) and record length (into the hundreds through Friday). Today's forecast is 105.

Now, to you SoCal Desert Rats this may not seem horrible, and believe me, I grew up in a place where 110 - 115 were regular summertime temps. But we're not set up for this.

I'm just happy to spend the week in a semi-cool theatre.

New-kitty needs a name. Husband keeps calling her Bert so I need to find something soon or it might stick!

Bertie is actually a cute kitty name!

Right before I went to sleep last night, I thought the same thing.

Been feeling really down in the dumps for the past month, because I've been working my butt off on a massive web design project while my "boss" has been busy relocating - meaning that I haven't been getting paid for the past month.

Thankfully, he's now settled and we hashed out everything today, and I'll be getting a nice sum in August. Thank. The. Gods.

I feel like I can breathe again. Although, we have a lot of bills to catch up on when that check comes. But, at least now I know it's coming and when.

That's great DP! Nice to know not only are you getting money, but when.

U.S. swimming champ Ricky Berens' suit split down the backside just before he stepped up to the starting block. There was no time to change, so he went ahead with the race. Here are some pictures of him. You'll be seeing some crack if you click these links, so be forewarned. He has a very nice crack though! :evil:

It also happened to Italian swimmer Flavia Zoccari.

It is officially 104 in Portland right now. The ALL-TIME high is 107.

The zoo was dead, with fewer than 1300 through the gates, mostly in the morning.

People here are grumpy.

So while my nails are long, I feel like a girl. It's a little strange. I'm typing with the nails, not my fingers like normal.

Of course, it doesn't help my typing that I have a cat sleeping on one arm.
