Happy Solstice
Yep! It was today. Longest day of the year. I put a couple hours of it to good use scaring old people by running through their neighborhood. I don't think any of them have seen a 22 year old in decades much less one as attractive as this guy... right..
King Kong is ridiculous. I'm still not sure if it's ridiculously bad or ridiculously good. I do know that the whole ape-chick love thing is kinda weird. And the whole Heart of Darkness thing is kinda whacked, and what the hell happens to Jimmy, huh? Never mind, I decided. Movie sucks. Now the seventies version, that's bad in a great way. "I'm a Libra, what sign are you? No no, don't tell me, you're an Aries! I can tell." So says "Dwan" (it's like Dawn but she switched two letters to make it more memorable) to Kong when he's about to eat her. I shit you not. Great stuff.
Tomorrow my nine year old cousin is coming running with me. I've been down here for two days and she thinks I'm some kind of god. At least it'll get her off the couch and away from her XBox for a while. Guess it'll be a slower run tomorrow, at least till she quits. No worries, maybe it'll inspire her to start athletics again. She's nine, and she's already moved through four sports, didn't like any of them but was good at em all. Go figure.

"Longest day of the year."
You meant longest night, of course.
But it's an interesting mistake, and here's why: all days are the same (24 hours), except when there are leap seconds. So, the longest day this year will be December 31 (24h, 00m, 01s)
Check it out, it might be the last one ever. Leap Seconds
