sticky, stinky and scratchy

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Just the other day I posted to this journal that the pleasant season was passing.

Sure enough, we were woken last night by mosquitoes. I can still see three bites on my right hand alone.

And it was too warm to wear my collared shirt to the office, so I put on a t-shirt and folded my collared shirt into my pannier. All Summer I do this trick, with some predictable results:

But today I added to the fun by leaving my damp t-shirt in my pannier all day. So naturally it was still damp as I was getting ready to go home.
