Cool

Tonight is glorious. After work, I blasted down Route 2 from Somerville to 128. The road is smooth, sweet, and fast. I put both my oversized coupe windows down. My hair (short as it is) was blowing around my head, and the air was cool, with the occasional speckle of moisture. The speed and cool continued down 128 (until 3 exits from home, when construction slowed me, heated and scented the air). For the first time in a while, my typing is impeded by cold fingers - and not because of AC! Because I'm 24 going on 800, I can feel the changes in my elbows and knees.

The past couple of days were cool, too. Yesterday and today, I was in New Hampshire visiting family. Even "hot" was cooler than the 95 and humid we've been having here. Their house, a log cabin, is very well insulated, so it's pleasant inside no matter what. There were ceiling fans, a lake, and cool, breezy nights. Today, the weather all over New England cooled. Long pants! And it's supposed to be fall-like (autumnal, even :-P) through the week. I love September, so despite my desire to have, oh, you know, a life direction before the change of seasons, I am happy about these changes.
