Just another spectacular day in my home town. We (Donna, I, Fellow ABCers Chuck and Cindy) went for a 25 mile bicycle ride this morning. Got at it early to avoid the traffic and the heat. The sky was beautiful, in that religious cliched sort of way, sporadic big clouds covering the morning sun, but allowing streaks of sunshine through to illuminate the green fields. Just awesome.
The rest of the middle of the day was spent indoors in front of the computer. I finished up the mix for my upcoming CD swap. It is supposed to be “music that makes you hot. Music that makes you sweat. Music that turns you on.” I don’t know any of the music titles from those cheesy porn movies of my youth, so I made up a mix of songs that have the word summer in the title.
Tonight around 8 o’clock Donna wanted a top down drive in the Miata and being the accommodating guy I am, I agreed. After the first turn out of the neighborhood we knew we couldn’t go north, dark ugly storm clouds were brewing. I headed east and then south. After a 20 mile loop or so we headed back into town to stop at the store to get some odds and ends. As soon as we turned north we realized that all the while we were driving east and south those clouds we saw earlier had continued their relentless march south. We needed gas anyway so we ducked into the first station available to top up the tank and put the top up. We made it into the store before the rains came, but had to use the little emergency umbrella to get back to the car without getting entirely soaked. The drive home from the store was very similar to the drive home from work on Friday.
