Got into the 80s today. When I passed through downtown at lunchtime, the Chamber of Commerce sign seemed to have a couple of LEDs out, so it was indicating the temperature as 32F rather than 82F. Unless someone thought that was a good joke...

You would think that weather like that would keep people out of the library, but the computer users were as insistent as ever. Thank goodness the machines now shut down automatically at 15 minutes before closing. It used to be really difficult to get people out the doors so we could lock up.

Fox is back. I'm quite sure. Haven't seen her yet, but I've smelled her several times and she's been digging in various places.

This would be the weekend to get lots more stuff into the garden. Hopefully the promised thunderstorms Saturday through Tuesday morning won't materialize. Lots of stuff to do indoors as well, but none of it is as time critical as planting. At least tonight we'll get to sleep with windows open for the first time this year. I wonder whether it will be to traffic noise or to frogs. I definitely prefer the frogs and maybe the fox yerfing.

Oh, and the only night out I could imagine that would be worse than the 80s would be the 70s. Gah.

Actually, my tolerance for loud noisy music has never been good, so even when one could visit the 80s without a TARDIS I avoided those environments.

I loved nights out with loud(ish) music in my student days. These days I have less tollerance for it. For me, the 80s (young as I was when I was living through them) were a decade of amazing music. Most of the rest of it was crap though. Thatcherism and crippled public service. IRA bombs and Michael Winner movies. *shudders*

I'll take the music and leave the rest, thanks.

Music with a reasonable sound volume please. :)
I have always liked peace and quiet.
And now I have Scenesat (www.scenesat.com) ^__^

That's music? Sound like ambient noise from a shopping mall to me. ;p

Well, the quality varies, as it is all made by demoscene artists.
I enjoy it a lot. The music is also free. Of course, Scenesat has got a couple of commercial exclusives like "She - Coloris", but generally it is all freeeeee! :)
