Sky gods, much as I appreciate the break from the Humidity (OMG), perhaps you could have seen fit to inform the poor remains of the Amtrak gods?

Or, more specifically, I wish to register a complaint about having to lurk in the bathtub for over an hour so I could actually feel all of my toes. And fingers.* While this was not assisted by the fact that I had a sweater for insulation and ballet flats for ... well, being awesome, but oy, that rail car was COLD.


The weather. It is whacky lately. New transplants are boggling at the humidity. (Also the vehemence with which older transplants are EEEE WIND!

Ahem. My back yard is throwing apples at the house. :D

Anyway! The vehemence with which older transplants sing the praises of hats, full spectrum lights and Gore-Tec.)

You can tell it's fall. :D



*: Well, as much as I ever feel all of my fingers.

...what is an amtrak?

Your yard is throwing apples. ooookay. I note not recalling any mention of an apple tree...

A hurricane made my plum tomatoes fall over, that was new. (Ok, it wasn't a hurricane by that point, and they later fell over again without any hurricane involvement whatsoever, which rather ruins the story. Now on the MK3 tomato-supporting-construction, now with 60% more canes than plants).

...and I have just after boggling quietly for - well, five lines of reply - realised that by 'transplants' you are not in fact talking about gardening... :D

To be fair, old transplants were also boggling at the humidity, because wtf hot and humid, and that humid period, but also humid that way in SEPTEMBER, wtf.

I have discovered that sufficient application of Car makes for much nicer errands in the rain. I approve of this discovery.

I would like to complain about the humidity. AGAIN. I dressed in rainworthy gear (wool peacoat, wool hat) and was quite comfortable being rained on, and then I caught a bus. A bus that was like unto a sauna. If I could have stripped completely I still would have been warm.

Thankfully I do not often take buses for very long; that was the bus that goes over the Lionsgate just to see how it went. The Seabus and Skytrain do not suffer from this greenhouse effect.
