Summertime

Nope, we didn´t go to Fehmarn, Bro did and wrote me this card (and yes, I still get cards via postcrossing, too, it´s fun!).

Niece loves the sea, the sand... and ice-cream, sadly they´re on the way home already, after just one week.

Yep.
After a way too long winter with ice rather than snow (I am thankful for that - um, no snow, I mean!), a way too cold spring (nahhh... not thankful), flooding (yikes!), we´re now stuck in a heat-wave.

They warn motorcyclists in the news, in the heat the bitumen might deform and make them fall. Weird weather this year!
Colleague M told me this morning he came by car – yesterday he was… aw, well, let´s just say it´s too hot to have fun in a leather-suit on a motorbike…

A note of mine at FB says it all:
"I´m sitting at teamleader´s PC a few hours ago, he´s got the mouse.
He stares at the screens, from the left to the right one and back. He moves the mouse a bit,
stares. More staring.
Really, I felt the giggling coming up. Mouse... stare.... "... just - what was I going to do again?"
This happened not only once! Guess from lunch-time on it´s just too hot in the office to do brainwork, any brainwork.
But it makes it easier to write test-plans to be tested by.... yourself!
The customer wants it that way! Maybe too hot over there, too!"

I do not... well actually not at all!! complain about the heat!

I suck it all in, think to myself, it could´ve come in better doses, but well... at least it´s here - right?

Oh, summer, I love you, no matter what!
Please, please stay (forever)....

And right now, as I type this, bats are flying over our balcony! Awww! What do the want in the city?
Anyhows, awww...
