Summer 2.0
Decided to walk home from work tonight, for no other reason than I wanted some ice cream and ice cream on the streetcar is not the most workable situation. So I got my ice cream (cardamom and vanilla), cut up Spadina to get some Chinese buns for after, ran into a friend from school on Baldwin and chatted with him for twenty minutes, and came home...right before the sky opened up for tonight's Severe Thunderstorm Alert.
I stood on the balcony watching for about ten minutes (with my largely unruffled beans and radishes, who fear no thunderstorm). This is probably the sixth nonstop lightning flash-flood-level storm we've had in the past week and a half: these are supposed to be a late August attraction, and they're getting a little too common.
No such thing as global warming, huh?
In non-preach-to-choir news, I got my grant application in today. Everyone cross fingers for the Toronto Arts Council to give me money to finish this book.
