Storms moving through, which keeps the smoke particles grounded. Moby dealing better than usual with the thunder, not hiding anyway. Lots of warnings and alerts, but so far it’s just been rain. Momentary hail. Disappointing to this storm enthusiast. But maybe still to come. Full rain barrels though!
No less than three people have commented, complimented me on the purple hair. I’m torn. Because I do it for myself. But I also know that it would be utterly churlish to tell them to mind their own business, when I’m out in public with bright purple hair. It rather invites looks. So, I stay polite and say, “thank you” to whomever says, “I like your hair! I like the purple!”
Still.
On the other hand, I’m sort of reaching out to people by doing the purple hair in the face of public response. Also practice in handling less than ideal interactions that I would prefer not to have.
Finished reading, If I Understood You, Would I Have This Look on My Face, Alan Alda. The power of empathy and improvisation as the tool to develop it. A clear writing style, he has quite a distinctive voice.
Off to watch the skies. Hoping for rain. As per.

Rain, wonderful rain.
Does Dylan love your purple hair?
(Well, silly man, of course he does!)
Cat,
His word, “awesome”. So I assume yes.
I hope the storms are dealing with the fires.
Indeed, awesome is appropriate!
