Intelligent and bright, they explored a world that was new and strange to them. They liked it, they thought - a whole world just for them! They were dimly aware that a God had created them, was watching them; they called out to him, thanking him in a chittering language, before running off.
I get three days of winter, with about a month and a half of autumn before, and a month or so of spring after. The rest of the time it is summer.

I'm currently saving to move north to the Seattle area in a couple of years. I can't stand California and it's sweltering hot bullshit anymore.

Brisbane has winter. It's one week in July and man is it horrible.

I can understand Canberra, Melbourne, rural, complaining about the winter months. Sydney is still great in the middle of winter, oh you have to wear a jacket, the horror. I can't imagine Brisbane being colder. Also, Far north Queensland is great for the winter months, because it's dry and warm and outside of jellyfish season.

Also I desperately miss living near the ocean. I don't ever go to the beach or anything. I just like living near the ocean.

Being near the ocean means you occasionally get proper weather. I'm far enough inland that everything that comes in off the gulf coast dies over Houston and San Antonio and doesn't make it here. It sucks.

I went to Melbourne last week and man it was cold, comparatively speaking. I'd been wearing shorts in the morning before I flew down and then I landed in Melbourne and everyone was wearing puffa jackets.

I remmeber it vividly, as I had to go into the city during the middle of the day. It was so hot you didn't even really sweat, because the westerly was dry and hot and your sweat would evaporate almost instantly.

It was great.

Well yes but then i'd live in queensland and nobody actually wants that, least of all queenslanders.

We hit around 43C at one point in August this year, but only because it got so dry. Normally it doesn't get above around 39C.

Also our matchup is going to be pretty close in fantasy this week, MG.

I may actually die if it got to 45.

In the very height of summer it gets to around 35 and I don't have AC and I just melt and it's awful.

It was still hot last week but then it rained for 3 days straight and now it's a cool 12-15 and autumn is fully upon us.

Yeah it's going to come down to what romo does in a few mins. If he has a bad game I win if he has a good game then you probably win.

I still have AP to play though.

Yeah. He's sitting on my bench too.

Fortunately, I'm sitting at 104-89 where I have 4 players left and he has 0, so it's a lock win.
