Today is my birthday! Today is also Hawaii Statehood Day, Chant at the Moon Day, and Lemon Meringue Pie Day. I do not like meringue, so we are having huckleberry pie tonight in honor of my Pacific Northwest heritage. John wanted to take me out to dinner, but I decided I'd rather have a lot of dim sum and Hainan chicken soup delivered to my doorstep. So we will dine in, but not cook.

As a special gift the day is completely sunny and almost warm. We have not had many warm days this summer and I never got the chance to put away my sweaters, hoodies or sweatpants for a season. I don't remember the last fog-free day we've had. Maybe in June? Anyway, the rest of the country is sweltering and I am grateful to be spared that, but I would welcome any temperature with a 7 in front.

In a short while I'll join my K-pop buddies for coffee at our usual place and a couple of hours of excitement over all the latest K-news, music, and tour details as we focus on the next concert we'll attend in September. Adele and I used to talk a lot about dramas, but she's been watching mostly medical, thriller or dark topic dramas which I will never watch. I am watching Chinese dramas more or less exclusively this year and she never watches those, I don't know why. I would miss having someone to talk to about them, but I have lots of C-drama fan friends at Threads and of course sartorias and anne to enthuse with here. So I'll be happy to talk about all things K-pop today.
