Time that is intolerant
Of the brave and innocent,
And indifferent in a week
To a beautiful physique,
Worships language and forgives
Everyone by whom it lives.
~ W.H. Auden

you write beautifully. it's so amazing to me when you can perceive things like humidity and textures from someone's written words.

My weather world has been a complete opposite...in the negative digits for many, many days & snow. I've enjoyed watching the pace of work & life and how this reminds me of oppressive humidity and heat. The want to walk, go exploring, have a life outside climate control is there but, a -20 wind chill much like 115 in the shade makes one think twice. I also have the next couple of weeks off so, I'll be able to catch up on sledding and warming up w/ friends & drink.
