It was 106 degrees here today in Portland. It's supposed to get to 108 tomorrow. I spent today indoors at Rael's office, with a few quick brief trips to Powell's and the 7-11 during which time I lost approximately 200 pounds of body fluids through evaporation, osmosis, and theft by tiny elves. I will spend tomorrow inside Rael's basement, playing Uno with his kids and doing a day-long impersonation of JD Salinger by not going outside, not sending mail, and ignoring the telephone. Sunday I will move to the OSCON hotel and prepare for the coming week of craziness, when I'll get little sleep, running around like a madman, but at least I won't have to be outside in his smothering sweatening hobo-baking granny-killing blood-boiling nightmare inferno of swelt.
