Tokyo, 2010.08.17

I believe that today is the hottest day of the year to date, for Tokyo.

It's 34ºC plus 67% humidity, or "feels like 47ºC". Nasty.

Three good things that happened today:

1. The doctor says that the infection is beat; now the healing begins

2. I got a raft of work done on the site

3. I've got an interesting interview lined up for later in the week

rand()m quote

The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to such a pass that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love, and in order to occupy and distract himself without love he gives way to passions and coarse pleasures, and sinks to bestiality in his vices, all from continual lying to other men and to himself.

—Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov
