serai: A kiss between Casey Connor and Zeke Tyler (Default)
.

Doing the dishes, I just looked up and realized the sunlight had changed. A pale orange pall has climbed about halfway up the sky and is touching the sun. My neighbour's parrots are irritable and restless.

Oh. Okay.

What Bill and Ted said.

The road to the post office leads out of the little hilly are where I live, so I just got a look at the sky to the north and east, which I cannot see from my house.

Gondor? Yeah, Gondor.

The sky here looks the way it must have looked there when Sauron was just kick-starting shit up again. The smoke is running in a river out of the gap between the San Gabriel and the Santa Monica Mountains, from southeast all the way across about a third of the sky northwestwards. It's orangey-brown, not dark smoke - yet - but it is wow. The light is a sunset color even though we're three hours or so away yet. I'm sure it'll be spectacular.

And when I left the house to go out, I smelled the smoke for the first time. I can't smell it now because I've gotten accustomed - it wasn't that strong to begin with - but that's there now as well. The air is hot and dry and still here.
