Sunday, and A Fic Rec

nightdog_barksIt's not 100 yet, but today is forecast to be the 37th straight day of 100+ temperatures. There is finally hope on the horizon -- the high-pressure system that's been sitting on top of the region for so long is expected to start drifting west late next week. A light breeze has begun blowing the last couple of days, clearing out some of the still, stale air. Also, in the Auguries Department, this morning I saw a pair of hawks wheeling in the sky, and when Mr. N cracked an egg for French toast, it was double-yolked.
Mr. N wants to make bread today, so have taken the yeast, sunflower seeds, and some bulgur out of the refrigerator to warm up. Still need to find the 10-grain mix. Or we could just use the bulgur.
Picked up The Hobbit last night, intending to read only the first chapter. Stayed for three.
The fic rec is not for a new story. It's from 2007, and it's one of those five-things fics. I re-read it late last night and was so glad I did. Full disclosure that the author is one of my own writing partners.

Presuming his biological dad wasn't the same strict martinet that John House was, I think House would have flourished without the physical abuse. On the other hand, his bio-dad ended up as a minister, so perhaps he was a Navy chaplain, which could've led to some intense arguments about God and a fractured relationship. Lots of possibilities. :-D
