The humidity is bad.
The humidity is great for me. I actually have medical reasons for loving the humidity. It can suck sometimes though like when I walked out of my house this mornind and my neighborhood smelled like wet dog. Granted it rained like crazy last night so it doesn't always smell like that."Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

It was 95F here yesterday. Chance of rain today is 100%, so I'm expecting a cooling trend...finally."Yeah, but never trust a Ph.D who has an MBA as well. The PhD symbolizes intelligence and discipline. The MBA symbolizes lust for power." -- Katy Lied

We were at the Ole Miss game last night and the weather was lovely.What's to explain? It's a bunch of people, most of whom you've never met, who are just as likely to be homicidal maniacs as they are to be normal everyday people, with whom you share the minutiae of your everyday life. It's totally normal, and everyone would understand.

Halloween in Houston is fun. The kids get to show off their costumes as they don'nt have to cover them up with heavy coats or even jackets. Parents walk down the road with drinks in their hands. Neighbors sit in their driveways to hand out candy. It's actually quite lovely here from late September to late December and then again from March through early June."Discipleship is not a spectator sport.

I will say that it has at least started to cool off at night here and the nights are actually quite pleasant.What's to explain?
