Bored on the first of July

July 1st, 2008 • Related • Filed Under

Back to work, blech. Would be much improved were we not sick with some meddlesome super virus that has layed us both out for over and under a week respectively. Also it is a hot mess here with typical July temps and an ocean that looks like the Bleeding Ganges of Doom. Very sad to report seeing families a few days ago scooping up plural octopuses near death and filling buckets with other flailing gunk from the algaed ocean. But who am I to stop them? Now though government crews are in cleaning up filthy flotsam and I must hope that balance will be restored soon. Duty calls!
