it's very dark right now. like really fucking dark,(considering it's 9:30 in the morning) and not just dark but there's this goldenrod cast to everything and ash is all over everyones cars and the sidewalk and such. there's fires everywhere, basically North County, East County, part of Riverside and near the border there's fires. Me being in Clairemont/PB i'm pretty much surrounded. Redeeming Quality: i live next to water it was a tad disconcerting to wake up and find the sky yellow and to find the house smelling faintly of smoke... there was a solar flare on friday and it made a very pritee effect in the sky.... i heard this on NPR this morning: a man protesting in washington square was in a pair of white overalls washing the american flag in a bucket of soapy water and was yelling "IT'S STILL DIRTY" that's the best i've heard yet
