Heat Wave

Posted on by

Did you know that Weatherbug turns red when the temperature breaks 100 F? Yep… found that out when I finally dragged myself out of bed today. It’s 102 F at least in Cut Bank where the temp is being recorded. Where I am, they’re estimating between 102 and 106. The nice green hills are now YELLOW and I think the fire danger exists if you even look at someone funny. At least it is indeed a dry heat — 8% humidity and it should drop to 85 F tomorrow which is a bit more bearable, especially when one’s study is on the third floor.

And I guess I should be grateful that it’s not 116 F like they’re predicting for Vegas.

It’s That Time of Year Again!

Yep! It’s Blogathon time!!! I’ll be doing the Blogathon here on July 28th as well as being part of the group doing Potterthon and monitoring. I’ll be raising funds on my blog for International Justice Mission, an organization that works in third world countries to combat slavery, sexual exploitation, police brutality, and other miscarriages of justice.

If you want to sponsor me, click here. I’ll have a footer at the bottom of every blog post for the next few weeks with the same link, so feel free to think it over if you need to.

An incentive in case you need one: if I raise at least $500, I will show up at both services on August 5th in full make-up, with my nails done, and wearing a nice dress. For those who know me in real life, that is a pretty rare site and something I haven’t done (at least in full) since my wedding day 5 years ago. So… if you want to see me dressed up pretty that Sunday morning, sponsor me!

Independence Day

Despite the idiocy of our executive branch this week in commuting the Scooter Libby sentence and our asnine vice-president assuming that he’s above the law and part of his own special branch of government, try and have a decent 4th of July.

And remember: vote intelligently — don’t let our country make mistakes like voting these jerks into office again.
