Transcending the meaningless.
Monday, 27. July 2009, 22:54:28
On reviewing my previous post--especially the last paragraph--I find I may have uttered untruths. It isn't I don't want to write about certain things or dwell on the present pain in my own life. Literature--genre literature especially--is best when it's as honest and forthright as possible, if that makes sense. Writing confers meaning. Oh dear, am I entering into the art-for-art's-sake argument? I'm afraid that's entirely beyond my sphere--at least when it's 89 degrees and humidity at 54 %...

You don't subscribe to the post-modernist theory that it's the reader who confers meaning?

And yeah, I've been told that I'm a humidity wuss. Greg says this ain't nothing compared to Kansas City in August.
But STILL! EW! When will it be back to our usual 60 degrees?? I'm dying here!

I think.

It's weird - we've not seen 90 all month. That's only happened six times since they've kept records, and this is the lowest average high temperature ever, almost 8 degrees below normal. Quite a month.
