   Sports car drivers have changed so much since I had one (I, too, had a TR3 before I got the Spyder). We used to wave to each other as we passed. Nobody does that now. When sports cars went sort of “mainstream,” the camaraderie got lost.

   I used to own a little Fiat Spyder. British Racing Green. Went like stink, it did. I still miss it sometimes.

   It’s finally cooling off here, for a day or two at least. Temperatures have come down from the mid to high 30’s to the low to mid 20’s. I feel I can almost start turning on the stove in the kitchen and cooking again. We’ve been subsisting on Costco BBQ chickens (which were NOT cooked in a metal mailbox) and potato salad.

   Let’s hear it for Harry’s peril-sensitive sunglasses.

   We had a mouse last fall. One mouse. It got in somehow and was thinking about becoming a permanent resident until it met Brambley. She sorted it out in a hurry, and left it lifeless in the middle of the kitchen floor to prove to us what a magnificent and perfect hunting and killing machine she really is. We have had no further intrusions of the mouse kind.

   When our daughter was four, we moved from one small town to another. Unfortunately, the place we were moving into wasn’t finished with the much needed renovations and we had a week between moving out of one place into another. We thought we’d take a bit of a holiday and go camping beside a small lake where the trout fishing was really good. It rained every day we were there. Every. Single. Day. And this in an area that boasted of a mere 10 inches of precip a year, including snow.

   I don’t remember any rules about indoors, indoor voices. The only hard and fast rule I grew up with was, “Don’t bleed in the living room.”

   I’m sort of with Arlo on this one. I have a pretty big kitchen. However, because of poor initial design, I have almost no counter space—maybe 8 feet and that includes the double sink. I have enough space to prepare meals, but I have to be cleaning up as I go along, or the space very quickly becomes woefully inadequate.

    It’s not even reasonable doggerel. Mind you, that last line is—um—creative?
