we're just on the cusp of the hot and humid summer weather. it soooooo wants to be 95 degrees with 100% humidity but so far the weather is holding on to a high of 82 and with 70% humidity. one day soon we will be melting.
the po-lice have been dealing with a ton of car break-ins around raleigh and cary. something like 100 a night. when craig took the dog out this morning he saw that SIX cars got broken into at our apartment complex. an investigator being interviewed on the news said that wednesday and friday nights are like "christmas for criminals". maybe because teevee is so crappy on those nights? perhaps they should put CSI on everynight of the week and see what happens. heh.
looks like old martha might be heading to a posh connecticut jail. maybe she'll get house arrest - she'd probably love that. i have to quote - and agree with - one of the blogs i read when they said: "I love Martha Stewart and everything she does... Martha Martha Martha... I don't care if she goes to jail, just keep sending me the recipes for bundt cake." you can't buy that kind of funniness.
speaking of martha-ness, for craiger's birthday this past weekend i bought him a wallet made out of duct tape. it's cool as hell. the company uses some sort of sooper dooper strength duct tape - who knew? and speaking of the word "strength", apparently people from connecticut (craig) say "stren-th" and people from upstate new york (me) say "strang-th". how do you say it?
i wish we had a trader joe's here in nc. all i hear about lately is trader joe's and how anyone who's anyone shops there and loves it and has the best time and gets the best food. somebody please send me something from trader freakin' joe's! (or don't if you think it sucks.)
currently, i am reading "seabiscuit" and it is awesome. next on deck are: "the true and authentic history of jenny dorset", "quite a year for plums", "tender at the bone", "the good people of new york" and "jay's journal of anomalies : conjurers, cheats, hustlers, hoaxsters, pranksters, jokesters, impostors, pretenders, sideshow showmen, armless calligraphers, mechanical marvels, popular entertainments". read along if you'd like.
