It’s so freakin’ hot. Seriously. Cheryl Cosim said this morning that today, the temperature could reach 37 degrees Celsius. I suck at Science so I’ll just have to assume that that temperature is hot. Scorching even.

I always think hard before I decide to take a cigarette break during work. If I smoke, I’d have to endure the heat on my face, the sun on my bare head, and the stink of perspiring fellow smokers. I smoke anyway since I’m a slave to the nicotine. Feh.

This summer, there are only two options for me to keep myslef cool: the beach and white-hot ladies in bikinis, or an air-conditioned room, with a bunch of comics. If only life was that simple. *sigh*

What’s fun with the intense heat, though, is that when things get hot enough, you start to see things that aren’t really there. A mirage. It fucks with your brain. It changes your perspective. It gives you the hope of finding an oasis. Most of the time, you get disappointed. But sometimes, when you least expect it, you get surprised. There it is. Something real out of something that’s supposedly just bullshit.

Anyhoo, it’s been a slow week in the comics haul department so let’s just get on with it. SPOILERS ahoy!

Blogathon

Holy mother of stinkin’ crap! I’ve blog for the past five days like I’ve never blogged before! In less than five days, I’ve posted ten blog entries (including this one) with topics ranging from blogging to TV network hijacking by a dude wearing a Max Headroom mask. Is Baddie insane, a blog addict, or just hungry for additional cash? You decide!

What have I learned from this blogathon?

I learned that taking “mind notes” of certain topics you want to blog about in the future may come in handy, provided you remember said notes. In my case, out of probably a dozen topics I have thought of before, I managed to blog about one of them. Now I know what pens and paper are for.
