The Queen is in the US? The Queen of England? Blast, I have to start reading the news a little more deeply than just the headlines.

yep. the Queen is here.

I've got Woodchuck Summer Cider on ice. If you were closer, I'd pop the tops off of two of them, but I'll pop the top off of one and send cool thoughts your way instead.

The thermostat on my Prius read 108 today. It always reads 2 to 4 degrees high, but at this temperature, I'm not sure it makes any difference! Stay cool, friend.

It's stupid hot here,too. I thought I might need a large piece of construction equipment to peel my undies off so I could use the facilities this afternoon *rolls eyes*. Add to that the worst case of PMS I've had in years and lets just say this hasn't been the best day in my personal recorded history. Some guy who tried to line jump me at the cable office called an exorcist for me I'm pretty sure.

LOL! heavy equipment? wow. you know, sometimes PMS does come in handy, people tend to back away slowly when the pea green vomit starts gushing...

As you sew, so shall you reap. It's a pity some crops take so long to harvest, but when it's a spectator sport it just makes watching the combines that much more fun when they finally arrive on the field of play.
