Hot Town, Summer in the Canyon
Well, we are way ahead of schedule into (shudder) fire season. One was in a town park-- I was stuck on the highway near it-- I heard popping noises, small explosions. On the radio, they said the pine trees were exploding when the heat reached them. On TV, they showed the big Griffith Park fire, near the zoo. That is far from me, but there were 2 smaller fires now far by. I went to work 2 days, even took standby and was up most of the night, but after the fires, it was hard to breathe, so I had to stay out today. I don't like to miss work days, but I want to feel decent enough that I can think clearly. So I'll be going back tomorrow. Beginning to get some ideas for small sketches so I'll back my pencil and pad and maybe doodle after work. Big M is back from travels , and no big trips fo r the next 2 weeks at least. It's been so hot, that I have been taking pictures through the windows, but they are terrible!

What to you do to reduce tensions and worry? At least I am kntting little squares again. I had stopped for several months. Some day. for a lark, I will photograph the squares. I want to make another blanket, , although making and aghan size may be better. What do you all think?

I can't believe that sometimes I have to watch Ghost in the Shell 4-5 times to "get" the plot, but I am appreciating it more. This I may need to learn a little more about CSS and make some little changes in my site. (yes, I generally try to sketch my own backgrounds, unfornately I rush the sketches many times.)

What are your long time non anime favorite movies? I love Shrek, Monsters Inc, but also Wall Street. Anything that has nothing to do with work-- that can kinda seem like a fantasy to me.

No photos today, but I want to send warm feelings and good fortune to wonderful friends, who though I am irregular in posting, make me feel like they are standing right by.

Love, Peace, and biscotti!
