Strange day

Up too late last night, then awakened too early by the stupid dog next door. As I write this, it's yapping mindlessly. Evidently good neighborly relations with me mean little to these people, which is why, over the years they've been our neighbors, it's been frustrating to communicate with them. I do hope this whole dog business improves, since it seems to have been deteriorating lately.
The sky after noon became complicated, half lovely blue and half bruised with thundery-looking banks of clouds. Stimulating to run with just enough clothes on to almost feel chilled by the stormy side of the atmosphere.
It never rained much, just spatters.
Making progress with DQ.
