Halcyon Repose

People never check to make sure the water bottle is empty at the water cooler.

So things are finally starting to cool down here in Southern California, much to everyone’s relief. Sure 90 degree days and 80 degree nights aren’t bad, but when you have no air conditioning, you have the fan on full blast, and you are still sweating buckets while trying to go to sleep, it can get rather annoying. I didn’t want to spend any time upstairs in my room, so it was out and about in the sunshine trying to keep myself from remembering how hot it really was.

An old fencing friend was in town this week. Whenever he comes in we all go to Louis’s restaurant and indulge ourselves in good food, good friends, and some good wine. This time was no exception and while I spent more money than I actually had, it was worth it.

Assuming we get a bonus at work, I am seriously thinking about a motorbike. Something small to learn on. Of course this means I will have to go take the motorbike training class, and spends lots of money on protective gear, but the end result will be some transportation that will help mitigate the gas consumed by my monster of a Mustang.
