Despite the heat, summer is my favorite time of year. It's unrelentingly bright. Many of my best memories take place in summer. I can't ever hear U2 without thinking of Christian and his acoustic guitar, the spicy sweet green scent of linden trees makes me think of Prague and the world before 9/11, the combination of hot concrete and cold water, the heat radiating from the ground, staying up night after long night, swimming pools during the day, Sonic cherry limeades and onion rings. In summer time I went to concerts, lived whole other lives, escaped adult supervision.

Recovering from surgery sucks. I can't stand this feeling of weakness, getting worn out from the most basic things. Anything that involves bending at the waist is nigh impossible. The healing stitches upset me because they itch and hurt and look grotesque. Plus this whole not being able to sleep in any sort of comfortable position makes me cranky. I haven't been able to sleep in my bed for more than a week. Tonight I'm going to try by piling sofa cushions and pillows into a giant nest.

Mike bought me hair dye and sushi today. So I can finally fix my hair that has turned blond with some faint bluish highlights by going back to black.

The robot is mopping the kitchen. Yay for robots.

It's nice seeing you pop online now and then, in WoW. I always have your characters/alts on my friends list, just so I can peek and see if you're there or not.

Yay! I like to see how everyone is doing. Plus Ama and I talked about pie the other night. Very Important Pie Discussion.

(And if you ever need help farming up herbs or fish or something, just poke me!)
