After two days so hot that I had to turn on the air-conditioner, a cool front has brought us closer to normal. My windows are open to the cooler air (and pollen, oh well), and the scent of my neighbor's orangeblossoms is wafting inside.

Miss Adventure is also reclining on the sofa barking at the birds, which is less pleasant but utterly characteristic.

5 Things?

1) Looking forward to reading the new Veronica Speedwell mystery by Deanna Raybourn, which should be in my Kindle as we speak. No time to read it now, but it's here.

2) Ordered new glasses, which may arrive at some point this week. I know how much my glasses cost, and I still winced.

3) The way I socialize with In-Town Best Friend these days is a brisk nature walk, and on Sunday morning we went out to a local wildlife refuge to walk on the berms around the pools. Even at 8:30 it was far too hot, but we did our 2.5-mile hike anyway, with light wind ruffling the blue water and the tall swampgrasses, with anhingas and cranes and various ducks all around.

We didn't see any gators, but I am FINE WITH THAT.

4) Enjoyed Victoria Beckham's autumn/winter 21 show/video. The sheer dresses don't work for me, but the suits, oh my god. Alas, my eye loves the high-heeled knee boots, but yesterday I wore proper heels for the first time in a couple of months and I've lost my skill in managing them.

5) Writing on my own stuff, which means I haven't ficced at all. I keep wanting to, but I keep not having ideas, so...

Have a wonderful middle of your week!
