Shorts, perhaps a skirt

What a rainstorm! The highways were flooded, and there was a six-car accident on Rte 2E, in Arlington. And now the sky is clear. Flash! and it's gone.

I'm now out of season.

Kashkaval is a good thing.

However, a non-local person giving out my phone number to a not-quite-random SJM (single Jewish male) without asking me first is not such a good thing, whether or not the SJM is reasonably in the ball park. Or rather, it may or may not end up being a good thing, but how it was done annoys me.
