Sometimes, I can't believe how the Corporate world values money and productivity over real life caring. A 70+ year old woman at my office was having major breathing issues, constantly coughing, and not a single coworker asked her if she needed help.

I was the only one to even ask if she was ok and needed help after hearing it from a distance.

That definitely sounds like northern Maine or New Hampshire. New Hampshire especially.

Don't forget the Cascades. Now that climate + weed is truly heaven for me and would cure some of my problems.

It means you hate urbanity and all things city-related, therefore your response was predictable, and I see no point in having this discussion with you because you are clearly set in your ways.

But, for what it's worth, I was talking in relative terms. Los Angeles is a rushed city, because all cities are rushed, but it seems laid back compared to New York or London. Just because you think it's 'far from reality' means nothing - even a modest-sized city would be too much for you to handle. My own city would probably drive you stir-crazy, but to me it's nothing.

I most certainly like the scene of coventry in the UK, if you call that a city. Seems to have a very comfy feel.

BTW, it was a wonderful day at work for me. Finished up all I had to and all set for Monday's meeting.

It was a grueling week, and I deserve some sort of relief. Look at my fridge, and there is nothing to drink .

In other news, it's been in the 80's and 90's in Toronto all week with very high humidity. All the igloos have melted and the polar bears are very uncomfortable.

Welcome back. Never seen you here before. Maybe it really has been a while since you visited.

Only 69 F outside and it doesn't even feel that humid for some reason. It feels so nice. It hasn't felt like this in months. Thank you rain.
