saturday may 30

today i clung to the belief established around the start of may, that, with our house lacking any sort of air conditioning, it was important to keep it as cool as possible in preparation for the summer. this resulted in my leaving most of the windows open overnight, despite the fact that the temperature inched down to about 3 or 4 degrees. when i woke up and walked through the house in shorts, i became aware that it was quite cold, and that maybe my assumption that the summer had already arrived was a little premature.
