This weekend, we went out to Arizona.

Now I know where I will go when I die if I´ve been very bad. And I´ve missed church today. Ay!

Arizona is 110 degrees NOW. I was gleefully told by locals, ¨Just WAIT until August!¨ Well, no, not today, thanks. I´ll stay in San Diego where 80 degrees is a heat wave. It´s also fantabulously right-wing All American, Redneckia. Steve was asked in the grocery store if he had ¨got Jesus¨. We´re both Christians, but asked like that, the answer is a sarcastic, ¨No, what aisle is he in?¨ Our otherwise sane relative praised a sheriff notorious for human rights violations. This is the state where looking at kiddie porn will get you 200 years in jail, but actually MOLESTING a child won´t even be life.

negativsteve´s party was a bust, and it ended by midnight. We took off earlier, because the Arizona room (an enclosed porch) was full of real estate agents talking shop, the living room had a few people talking sports, and upstairs were the stoners. Normally stoners are fun to hang out with, but I didn´t want to come back to the house of Steve´s relatives smelling like backstage at a Sublime concert. I had one small drink and that was it.

So, I had a rotten time, right? No, actually. It was nice to see that Steve has at least ONE sane relation, and she and her family are sweet as all get-out. Charming (if rednecky) husband, three fantastically well-behaved and personable kids, and a poodle who manages to still be a bird dog. I jumped on a trampoline. It was fun to see negativsteve in his new digs.

Let me tell you, I never minded San Diego´s weather before, but now I LOOOOOOVE it. The options could be so much worse.

I just got an e-mail from my long time friend Kate. I've known her for about 20 years. Her cat Selene died this evening, of hypoglycemia. She'd become diabetic, but had not been eating enough to not go into a crisis when she got insulin.

I feel really bad for my friend, because she and that cat were really close. She's coping with it well, but that sure doesn't mean it doesn't bother her.

Poor Kate...keep her in prayers and positive energy.
