Cockroach playing dead by my bed (don't ask why I took a picture). It didn't move til I picked it up causing me to drop it and run screaming out of the room. I'm such a wimp.

We've had incredible rain storms in the evening and through the night, but have been lucky to enjoy nicely sunny days.

The ocean has been really rough, with rip tides bad enough to warrant signs with Strong Current! No Swimming! and a picture of a stick figure drowning. A lifeguard came by to update us on the conditions saying "it's better than yesterday, but still rough. If you want to swim head down toward the pier". My sister asked "can we go in here just to cool off? Lifeguard..."If you want to cool off there's a shower by the lifeguard stand and for productive swimming you should head down by the pier". Cool off in the shower? At the beach? Productive swimming? What the hell?
