it just looks so friendly! but today with the temperature breaking 100 and with the heat index being about one-hundred-and-ridiculous, i felt like i understood the true nature of the sun, and imagined it like this:
and for the 7 minutes or so that i was outside tie-dying bandannas with my campers i felt like this:that's right, i'm comparing my experience to melted rock. oh sun how i love you, but i forget how powerful you can be!

Yea, it was just atrocious this weekend. I drank probably 12 litres while working in the shop on the car.

i'm proud of you for toughing it out with your campers! i got a nasty sunburn this weekend when i thought it would still be cloudy so i also have a new respect for the sun.
