June Looms

Asuka Kurosawa, A Snake of June (2002)


Summertime,
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high




Your daddy's rich
And your mamma's good lookin'
So hush little baby
Don't you cry
-Gershwin

It's been a bit rainy the past few days but it mercifully cooled things off. I just throw an umbrella in my backpack and i have a Columbia light water poof jacket. We did have deluge on Friday that dumped a lot of rain on us, but then it was sunny as soon as it stopped.

Life on the Iberian Peninsula; in the summer storms move in and out very quickly.

No work today! Yeah! i taught one class yesterday before the Champions League Final.

Saw Susanna, Joe, Polly, Laura, Tim, Sarah and a good cast of characters for the game. Good times. Then home on the Metro and then sleeping. Sweet gorgeous sleeping.

I will be 43 at the end of the week. Calendars start with Monday in Europe (freaks!!!!)

It's been a good 43 years. I know what i want to be when i grow up (teacher!)
