The temperature on campus reached 96F today, with single-digit humidity. That's a little too hot for my comfort, though still noticeably less awful than 100, 105 or 110, all of which seem to be recognizable points on my personal scale. The saguaros are busily blooming, the night-flowering cacti are budding, the Mexican bird of paradise bushes are a splash of flame-color, and the oleanders are weighted down with slightly scorched blossom in red and pink and white. The university year is just about over.

On the bright side, we're still getting night-time temperatures in the low 60's. I just wish my neighbors would realize this and not run their a/c all night. The a/c in these apartments is not exactly whisper-quiet, and I dislike white noise enough to avoid running my own at night as much as possible, only to be kept awake anyway by the intermittent grinding sounds from next door or downstairs.
