Temperature drop

Yesterday's thunderstorm brought temperatures down from overwhelming mid-30s to more comfortable lower 20s - a good and welcome change.

The let-down of the temperature of football fever is harder to enjoy - like Icarus, we've been flying high and gotten too close to the sun. The wax has melted, and though the fall isn't fatal, it's definitely produced a hangover-like headache.

I guess that means the conversational opener will go back to the weather condition rather than sharing the excitement of having seen our team win the game on the previous evening...
