It's about to rain its motherfucking ass off down here. All that shit that's been swirling around Texas and Alabama? It's swirling around us now. Just in time for the 5:30 commute through the biggest set of moronic jackasses to ever get behind the wheel of a car.

It is cloudy and raining most of the year. That sounds awesome to me, though. |

Yeah, I wouldn't mind living in raintown USA, personally. I mean, I liked Fogville (Daly City, CA). Rain is even more exciting!

The one time I was in Seattle the weather was very nice. If anything it was a little too warm and sunny for me.

By all accounts, the summer my parents in Seattle had was far nice and possibly even warmer than my summer here in Chicago. I don't know if it's global warming or whatnot, but I don't think the complaints about Seattle weather hold quite like they used to.

You can do outside-y things in Seattle almost year round if you don't mind drizzle. It rarely gets too hot (at least for those crazy outdoors types- anything over 80 is criminal imo), and only gets nasty cold in short bursts. Although we had almost 2 feet of snow from a series of storms last year right before Christmas, that is very unusual. At least I fucking hope it was.

Just found out I have hearing loss in my left ear. Woo! No idea if it is at all related to the troubles I've been having with that ear of late or not, and I still have to wait another month and a half to see the specialist! Lets hope I don't lose any more hearing in that time...

Damn dude, being in the same boat, it sucks, but you do get used to it more or less. |

The grapes I just got aren't seedless... Should I be eating the seeds? Getting a little sick of picking them out or spitting them into a cup.

If you swallow the seeds they'll grow inside of you...at least that's what my parents told me when I was young...

I hope it's something treatable. I've noticed a partial loss in my right ear and problems distingusing voices in a crowd but have avoided going to the doctor because, really, it's not too terrible and I don't need a hearing aid yet. Another 5-10 years and I'll be having one. I know for a fact mine is related to headphones and many, many years of listening to music way too loud. I've owned a portable music device of some sort since Freshman year of high school some 21 years ago and always have had the thing too damn loud. I expect with the proliferation of MP3 players with kids as young as 8 owning them we'll soon be a nation of deaf as well as fat people. |

I bought grapes with seeds in them by mistake recently. I take a knife and gut the pestilential little fuckers ten or so at a time, then relax and enjoy the sweet grape sensation uninterrupted for a while, before repeating the process. Much as I do with pistachios. |

Apparently they stomped on them to get the juice out, let it ferment, and drank the result. |

I've got a bit of hearing loss in my left ear (probably both, but worse in the left), along with some tinnitus, mostly in the left as well. Sitting in front of full stacks without ear plugs wasn't the best move I made as a kid. But now I use it as an excuse when I want to blast the stereo wicked loud  I always say when life hands you lemons, question why an abstract concept is doling out fruit. Remember the Amityville Horror, the scene where the priest is in the room where the window fills up with flies? That was my kitchen monday night. At first I just nuked them, but there were so goddamned many, I decided I'd call the exterminator and get the nest taken care of. Called Orkin, guy on the phone was great, knew all kinds of great info on ants, we had a great conversation. The kid they sent to my house was a fucking moron who couldn't think off the script. Now I'm out $350 and have to try and recover it from their money back guarantee... My favorite part was the guy talking about his eco-friendly spray. "Eco-friendly? What exactly does that mean" "Oh, it's made from a (somethingsomething) plant. It's all-natural." "You know, belladonna is an all-natural plant." "Oh, this stuff is totally safe for mammals, I can spray it in my eye and be fine." "Ok." "Ok?" "Yeah, spray it in your eye." "Well, I'm not going to do that." "Give it to me, I'll spray it in your eye." "What?" "Because when you say you're going to spray it in your eye to prove it's not going to harm my cat, and then you don't do it, I think you're not being honest." "It's eco-friendly."  |

It's the warmest day of the year here today. September 23rd is the warmest day of the year. That sucks.

That's fairly normal for Northern California. September is not infrequently the hottest month of the year here. I think August beats it usually, but September has it all over July. |

I think he is sorta saying that, even if there are warmer days, that will hardly be better than having Sept 23 as your warmest day.

Yeah, I'm trying this whole nice thing. Sucks. In other news, it was a really shitty day for that incompetent exterminator dude. Found out my cousin just got promoted to service manager for their home office. Woops. |
