Draußen. Überwältigt. Versucht, die lang verinnerlichte Kleiderordnung für Bürotage zu verwerfen und sich mehr Pragmatismus zu gönnen. Zwiegespräche mit dem eigenen Schatten, so klein er auch sein mag. Grelle Sonne, reflektiert von Glas und hellgrauem Beton. Eine ausgeblichene Flagge hängt schlaff an einer ebenso ausgeblichenen Markise. Kurz hinter der Kreuzung verbringen die Handwerker ihre Pause im Transporter, Türen geschlossen, der Motor läuft. Löst man ein Problem, hat man ein anderes. (Erste Wolken dort, wo Blickfeld an Flachdächer stößt. Nervosität dank fehlendem Zeitgefühl. Und die Frage: Wie viel Augenblicke vergehen ohne Gedanken, ohne eng mit, in irgendetwas verwoben zu sein? Metaebenen unter drückendem Sommer.)

https://sfba.social/@NorcalGma2/112956916549608628 NorcalGma2@sfba.social - Summer did talk me into letting her swim while we were out and about. We had to motor to a different spot, but it was sooo worth it.
Happy dog was Summer.

8pm and out again. Rolling with the wind, circling park and its ponds. The early breath of another intense summer night in things. Losing it to some meandering thoughts. Like: What kind of book to form with all the lost drafts, all the typos, all the responses irrevocably gone with ephemeral infrastructure? Just before dusk, the time for considerations that need no purpose.

Außerhalb geschlossener Räumlichkeiten, zur falschen Zeit heute. Ein Versuch anderer Rituale, unterbrochen, weil die Wärme Fähigkeit und Willen zum abwegigen Denken merklich einschränkt. Der schmale Grünstreifen blüht in strahlendem Distelviolett, darüber fließt zähe Luft. Gegenüber im Erdgeschoss berät der Unternehmensberater Unternehmen, spricht in eine Kamera, gestikuliert an einer großen Tafel, wobei ihm wiederholt das Headset fast auf die Schultern fällt. Mehrere Etagen weiter oben wird auf dem unverschatteten Balkon gefrühstückt. In diesem Stadtteil scheinen die Nachbarn zäher zu sein als anderswo.

9am and on. Flowing, yet a bit out of tune. Ventilation efforts, not that effective. Office communication on-topic and off-topic. Listening to the backyard fountain while windows may still remain opened. Bad movie titles: Days In Heat.
This #HamsterMonday, I’m grateful for the bounty of wonderful veggies that are available everywhere right now.

"high noon in the suburb of Tristesse City"
the rules of the game are simple - choose a photo (preferably your own), edit with gimp and tag #sundaygimp on a Sunday ;-) … and follow the tag.
#sundaygimp
(and also #Sunday-photo-edit )
Note: if you do not use gimp, but still want to play along, just use the tag #Sunday-photo-edit and edit the images with your favorite image editor

10am and on. Swapped coffee for water, in an attempt to stay more hydrated. Sometimes, just knowing about bad habits doesn't help all that much. Too: Chores, cake, still dealing with the aftermath of a late night and the warmth rising in this day again. Slowly moving forth.

9pm and slowing down. Resisting an urge to fall back into usual evening habits, at least for some of them. There's a kind of party between here and the river banks, invisible but noisy and there's an overwhelming load of summer in this. Watching candles flicker in the wind, on balconies across the road, and some youngsters spending the hours on that terrace, in front of laptop displays. The different means of joining any conversation.

I love this photograph very much, especially the blue shade of the water.
COOLING OFF
- OPINION: During the hot Summer months there is more violence of every kind. Murders, rapes, fights, arguments, shootings, and violent protests. The blood runs hot. Tempers flare up. Emotions are intensified and thinking is affected.
Now, due to Climate Change, temperatures are higher and for longer periods of time. Cities need places where people can go to water features to 'Cool Off'.
When violence begins at protests and other crowded gatherings, the Fire Department needs to be called - not the Police who will cause even more anger and violence. The Fire Department should aim their water hoses up in the air, so cool water will rain down on everyone. If someone is absolutely determined to be violent, well then, they will get a full blast of water from fire hoses - not guns.
Later afternoon. Between sun and thunder. Letting the hours pass by, watching without too much ado. // đź“· 366skies
