Today's Hot, Sweaty, Smoggy Tandy Hills View Of Downtown Fort Worth

I don't know what air pollution level watch we are at today, here in sunny, smoggy, HOT, Fort Worth.

Orange, Red. Or Purple.

But, I do know I don't recollect seeing it this smoggy before, or looking at the stunning skyline of beautiful downtown Fort Worth through such a thick dirty filter, as what I was looking through today.

I was feeling the best, this morning, when I got up, that I've felt in well over a week. The miracle of a really good night's sleep. And a clear conscience, strong body, good heart and kind nature.

I stayed in the pool a very long time this morning, just enjoying feeling so good. And enjoying how good the place was smelling due to all the blooming Magnolia blossoms.

I knew well before I hit the pool that Google was having a serious problem with its Blogger system. I figured it would be quickly fixed. At that point in time I did not know the problem had already been going on for over 7 hours. Or realize that the problem would continue for another 7 or more hours.

With no Blogger to blog on I had to find other things to do that needed doing. So, I updated several of my Eyes on Texas webpages. This turned out to be a good thing. I did not realize I was a bit out of date on some stuff. Like who is going to be at the WinStar Resort Casino in Oklahoma. Or at Billy Bob's Texas in the Fort Worth Stockyards.

I went over to Miss Puerto Rico's to take a picture of the smoggy view of her place, thinking I would blog it, forgetting I could not blog due to the Blogger malfunction. It's moments like these that give me pause to wonder and worry about the quality of my cerebral blood flow.

Around noon I got out of here, got gas, called my mom, like I always do when I get gas, but my phone was acting screwy, so I didn't get to tell my mom I got gas.

It was not all that HOT when I got to the Tandy Hills, high 80s, maybe. But very very humid. I do not recollect ever getting so drenched on the Tandy Hills, not even when it's 110. When it is 110, it usually is not very humid. But, today it was like a big, hot, wet cotton, smoggy blanket out there.

When I was done, with my steam bath, I decided, though I'd not previously planned to, to go to Town Talk, just to spend some quality time in their very refreshing walk in cooler. I spent my time in the cooler and then left Town Talk, without buying anything, and headed to Super Wal-Mart where I needed to get milk.

And then back here for lunch, after which, the Blogger thing was back working.

For now.

MLK, I love Town Talk, too, but what's happened to the cheese???? And I miss the hummus. And I was really liking those spring roll packs of 20 for 2 bucks. But mostly, it's the missing cheese that I've, well, been missing.
