(no subject)

The wind blew and blew today. It rattled the bones of our big old ugly office building until I thought everything was going to come down, and in the process the temperature dropped about 30 degrees after lunch. And as if to signify that this really, really is the end of summer, no more ninety-degree days I swear it, the strap of my all-time favorite $3.99+tax Walgreen's shoes broke, so that, in a Ramona Quimby moment, I was forced to staple it back together in order to get around for the rest of the day. (Once I colored the staples with a Sharpie, you couldn't tell they were there.)

Why am I telling you this? I'm just happy about the weather, really. That and it's kind of a slow news day.
