Not Just Yet

I was ready to get up this morning and type up a post entitled Summer Already. It was 70' when I woke up. It was still raining pretty hard, too. We escaped the worst of the storms, as they passed well to the North of us. But we did get some pretty hard rain. I know some of you out West wish you had some of our rain, and I wish I could send it to you. My yard is a sodden mess. In Texas, we described this kind of mud as "Too thick to drink, too thin to plow." And the humidity!

BUT....by the time I got home from work, the temperature had dropped 20' and is right now sitting at 50, and expected to drop even lower. So it's not summer after all. Not just yet.

But it makes for great knitting weather. I'm almost done with Cody's second sock. Just under 2" of foot to go before I start the toe decreases. I got another DVD of Magnum P.I. from Netflix yesterday, and spent the afternoon watching and knitting. In this second season of shows, it seems like in every single show some lucky woman gets to kiss him. Ya wanna talk about some hot kisses...now those are some hot kisses. I kind of feel sorry for the girls of today. I don't know who the current heart throb is, but I got to grow up drooling over Tom Selleck. Leonardo, Brad, Ashton, you name him... he pales in comparison.

And you know I love my Tony, but as much as I hate to say it, even he can't hold a candle to Tom.

Incidentally, I was over at Yahoo Sports Football page catching up on the free agency news. As I scrolled down the page, I saw the tiny little thumbnail pictures they have over to the left. I mean, these things are like an inch square. I was without my glasses to boot, which means I'm blind as a bat. Anyway, one of these microscopic photos caught my eye, and for some reason I zeroed in on it like a duck on a june bug. I click to enlarge it, and low and behold....

And now, back to reality...

Rylea is in heat. I'd thought she was in heat once before. Her *ahem* was kind of swollen and pinkish, but this time she is..uh...dribbling...uh, you know. If you've ever had a female dog who's come into heat, you know what I'm talking about. I've already called the vet, and I'm taking her in tomorrow.

For your Photo Of The Day...not Tom Selleck I'm sorry to say. Feeding a hippo at the Memphis Zoo.
