Melted ...

[blamebrampton]

It is 27 degrees Celcius (just over 80F) and nearly midnight. It has been like this all week. Everyone in Sydney has taken to apologising at the start of every sentence because we are too melty to brain. It's at least bonding us all together in thickitude.

Which is also my excuse for forgetting to with the lovely morien_san  a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY for yesterday. However I am just in time here to pass on the same wishes for today to 1strangebird  -- I hope this year is working out as you wanted it to. Here's to lovely days for the both of you, including visits from the present fairy!

I received a parcel from calanthe_fics  today for my own Festival of Birthday -- gorgeous knits and Moomins! She knows me so well! I'm so privileged in my friends!

You could try doing what I did one January; leave Melbourne with a temperature on the tarmac of 40C; arrive Toronto 24 hours later where the temperature was -25C.

Actually a mate of mine use to do that every day. He worked at the Polaris mine and it was not unusual for the temperature in the mine to reach 35C while, in winter, the surface temperature sometimes dropped to -40C.

In summer we're so relieved at the days when it's only 80F. So much of the time it's more like 90.

Happy B'day - I hope the birthday festival is joyfully continuing!

I've not done any travelling to compete with the scary temperature changes above....but does working in an office where the ambient temperature makes you put a cardy on and then walking outside where it's 43 count?

Stay cool :)

Happy Birthday! I remember the Moomin books. I saw an excellent museum exhibit about the Moomins last year.

Warm weather feels rather surreal right now.

Stay cool, if possible. :)
