Goodnight friends! Temperature swelling, up 5 degrees to a baked-dry 27°c, stone surfaces faintly warm to the touch and air itself feeling dense and hot. Fitful breezes sizzling in the linden branches, trembling shadows inky dark but not truly feeling cool. Purple tipped wild grasses sway slowly, insects glittering on their stems like cabochons, seeming too sun-stunned to move anywhere fast. Still 21° now approaching midnight, though as evening came on a thick shroud of pale clouds gathered and the pressure dropped, so the heat has become a little thick and sticky.
Taking the day fairly slow and paced out again, since my girlfriend and I are planning a weekend day out at an art event. A long leisurely walk and more drawing, as well as printing out a few zines to give to friends tomorrow.
May we find ways to live towards our beliefs and values today!
