There isn't a strong enough profanity to account for how damn hot it is. Triple digits.

I didn't cook dinner. I ordered pizza. The nieces made a BIG FUSS and now we're trying out dairy to see if they're outgrowing that intolerance, so we tried cheese pizza. (They've been eating ice cream, too. That's what prompted this, they were tired of raspberry sorbet.) Fingers crossed.

As we were eating dinner, Evangeline started talking about her upcoming birthday. You know, the one in the middle of October. THAT birthday! She already has her guest list written, and today she was explaining to us why she picked the guests she did. "I would've invited Themie, but she's best friends with Stephanie, and Stephanie sat at my table so I really like her, but if Themie comes they'll just play together so I can't invite her, I don't think."

*blinkblinkblink*

Is it just me, or is this a nice amount of social awareness for a five year old? (No, really, is it just me? This is one of those things I don't know.)

Tomorrow is this thing on Bessie Coleman.

To remind everybody, back when I went on a biographies kick (which I'm still sorta on! Picture book biographies, send them my way) I discovered Bessie Coleman, who was the first American of any race or gender to get an international pilot's license, and she did it before Earhart, too!

I'm a great admirer of the woman, so yes, we're gonna be there. Oh, yes, we are.

It occurred to me just now to check and make sure they're still doing that, y'know, because of the heat.

They ARE still having this outdoor reading at 3pm, in the full heat of day... but they are NOT holding the evening campfire, because of the "extreme weather conditions". No argument here, but wouldn't you expect them to cancel the even that's in the sunlight rather than the one that's after the temperatures have theoretically dropped?

I don't get it. There aren't enough natural disasters, people have to make the other kind?
