Vintage 40 Prime THREE

101 here yesterday, expecting the same today. 72% humidity so none of that "At least it's a dry heat." Bullshit. Reminds me of Iraq. Afghanistan was dry. I can't believe this place is more humid than North Carolina. It must be the constant breeze and no Pines to hold all that humidity in that make it not feel that horrible.
 
We've had rain since Friday.
The last 2 days it's flooded here pretty bad. Posted pictures on FB.

Memorial is Thursday afternoon. I was gonna have to go alone but a couple of
Friends from back over 20 years ago are all going to meet up.
Some of us were station employees and others just close friends.

Yesterday I had to run errands in the afternoon and I nearly passed out from the heat. It rained overnight but that just increased humidity and it is supposed to be even hotter today. I might just melt into a puddle of sweat when I take care of this afternoon's outdoor business. It is at times like this when I want to find a nice deep cave and a woman who is willing to live there with me.
 
The idea of living in a cave with a woman brought something to mind. I have heard that women's menstrual cycles and moods are closely tied in with natural rhythms, especially those that are related to light (everything from the moon to the sun to indoor lighting). I wonder how living in an environment that has nothing but electrical lighting would affect a woman... especially her sex drive?
 
Well this afternoon is the memorial service. Thank God I don't have to go alone. A couple friends who also knew Mr Radio personaly all these years are going with me. They're probably the only ones left who know who close we once we're. We are meeting a couple other friends who worked the station back 20 years ago and aren't really a part of the current group either. So we will be a tight little knot in the mass craziness we all expect this to turn into with it open to the public listeners.

Stay safe, Starry! Sorry for your loss. :heart:
 
91 and soupy!

Thankfully someone took pity on me and drove me home from work. I'm in upstate NY, not the Everglades!
 
100 here. But a nice breeze. Like a convection oven:D
 
Made it thru the Memorial. It's probably a good thing I cried myself out Saturday. This was so much about celebrating Mr. Radio then my personal friend. I did get to finally meet his brother and see his Mom again. I'm very proud of how well she handled herself with Media interviews. I couldn't have done that as well as she did. I was honored she gave me a hug and quietly shared with me she wasn't happy about some of what I call the "station stories". I agree with her but it all goes with the media job.

Then I got home to news another long time friend passed over this afternoon from her fight with cancer. Seriously I dont have that many long time friends to lose one a week like this. I'm trying to remember that she's not in pain anymore. And they both are flying free up in Heaven stirring things up. :rose:
 
The only thing you can do Starry. Be positive. The friend with cancer is pain and care free. Still, I am sorry for your loss.

75.6 Deg. with 82% humidity and cloudy this Fri.

A storm alert is in place until Sunday.

A hurricane is needed to get rid of the Adirondack humidity. :eek:

Working on the positive thing big time. But I'd still like the landlords /slumlords to have a good bite on the ass and know what it's like to live how they've left me in their greed quest.

I'm back to more sorting and dumping. This morning was all the old wire hangers, half the thick plastic ones and keeping the rest for when they need to be used unpacking. I moved the 3 clothes tubs into the 1empty closet and then added a few other items packed so that's ready to move to storage or a new place once something does happen.

It's been slow since I'm doing this solo but I can't keep up with people here helping, sorting in the heat. So it's 1step at a time. Clothes are almost down to just what I can wear right now in the heat & with the shoulder issues.

I relate all too well to that. I would probably have been out of here a long time ago except that I have enough stuff to spend a year packing. :(
 
The calico princess has been with us for a year. Last month, she discovered that we have an enclosed back porch. She loves to hang out there at night, sometimes when she's bored she'll go out in teh afternoon and watch over her domain.

Today, it's 93, dew point is 77. That's Florida weather! I opened the doors for her, she stepped out, got to the mat, stopped, and backed her large ass back into the house. She sat and watched me close the door, made sure they were closed. She went and ate some food.

She's now on a chair with the fan on her.

<snort> ooooo so spoiled!!!! :D
 
I had Siamese cats, twins actually. Spoiled and chatty.
It was like living with Joan Rivers and Fran Drescher.
I miss them one was 15 when she passed and the other 18.

She's only chatty when she has her soft ball in her mouth, or wants someone to throw it around.
 
The heatwave is finally over, rain all day on Tuesday and the humidity dropped to 55%, it's about time.

Well, the plants got watered, the ground is dry and I am still anti-snow.
 
I have been thinking a lot about my ex wife's sister. I fell for her when she was dating my best friend of that time. She was not beautiful in the conventional sense but things reached the point where I would simply melt when she walked into any room where I was sitting. She could do anything a man could do, was a keen participant in profound discussions about everything from quantum theory to the best sexual techniques, and she had a vulnerability that made me want to just wrap her in my arms and protect her from the evil of the world. They had problems conceiving and I almost had them convinced to let me be their sperm donor. Then he died and my wife and I divorced. She looks like hell these days but I still think about her constantly. If there was even the smallest signal for her then I would be at her door in a flash. Turning off the lights and making love with her in the dark I would finally have what I have longed for throughout the last 40 years.
