Today I dipped my feet into a stream and found it to be almost boiling hot.  To put things a little more into perspective, the temperature outside was in the mid-nineties and I was looking for a refreshing dip in the cool waters to make the heat a little more bearable.  Thus you can imagine my surprise.  The sensation is quite similar to picking up a nice transparent beverage that you expect to be water and drink up, to find that it's really Sprite.  First reaction:  Repulsion.  Followed then on by realization, adaptation, and then, hopefully, pleasure.  I was no exception to this chain of thought.  
I'm home from travelling many days sooner than what I would like to be, but unfortunately, life cannot be one long series of consecutive weekends without the in-between.  Thirteen days remain.
