Yesterday’s high in Boston was 89°F (about 32°C). I suspect today’s high was higher. Right now, several hours after dark, the temperature is 83°F. Those of you who live in habitable warm places need to understand what the humidity is like. And the pollen. If I lived in Antarctica, it would be the middle of the winter right now! Sorry, everbody, I love you all, but the penguins call.

And I love you too, but the only words that spring to mind (with reference to anyone who complains about Boston heat and humidity) are "Cry me a fucking river." Come see us in Tokyo during the rainy season, daintyboy, and then tell me how bad the humidity is up Boston way.

Sorry. I had a very bad day.
