Work is being busy, but not yet too busy. Most of us have coughs or colds and are wrapping ourselves in various forms of cardigan.

This strange thing known as "sunshine" occurred this afternoon. Such a change.

It really doesn't feel like a Tuesday. It feels like much later in the week.

Once I dipt into the future far as human eye could see,
And I saw the Chief Forecaster, dead as any one can be--
Dead and damned and shut in Hades as a liar from his birth,
With a record of unreason seldome paralleled on earth.
While I looked he reared him solemnly, that incandescent youth,
From the coals that he'd preferred to the advantages of truth.
He cast his eyes about him and above him; then he wrote
On a slab of thin asbestos what I venture here to quote --
For I read it in the rose-light of the everlasting glow:
"Cloudy; variable winds, with local showers; cooler; snow."

-- Ambrose Bierce

I have heard it can cause burns.
