She's a summer storm

Cyrano,
Someone very close to you may remind you today of what you don't like about yourself. It's difficult enough knowing an aspect of your own life that has fallen short of your expectations, but having another person give words to it can push you close to the edge of emotional discomfort. Don't resist this little journey into your insecurity, for you can gain strength and awareness by confronting your self-imposed limitations.
Oh good. Because I certainly don't remind myself *all on my own* about my many shortcomings *every single day* and cause myself 'emotional discomfort'. I think I'll just take a little journey into my insecurity. Yeah. Yeah, that sounds great. I can't wait for the strength and awareness.

And also, folks who have good energy to spare for my friend Windrose in Florida (and, of course, everywhere else in the path of the hurricane starting with the Caribbean islands it's already plowed over), it appears to be setting a lot of records. I'm guessing it's peeved because it's only tied the record for 'most hurricanes in a single season' and is compensating.
PUNTA GORDA, Fla. - Gathering strength at a record pace, Hurricane Wilma grew into the most intense Atlantic storm ever recorded Wednesday — a Category 5 monster with 175 mph winds that is expected to make landfall somewhere on Florida’s west coast by late Saturday and then possibly make course for New England.
The National Hurricane Center — which bases a storm’s strength on barometric pressure, not wind speed — said Wilma’s pressure had dropped to 882 millibars, the lowest minimum pressure ever measured in a hurricane in the Atlantic basin. Pressure drops as a hurricane gains strength, and the previous record was set by Hurricane Gilbert in 1988 at 888 millibars.
Center meteorologist Hugh Cobb said Wilma also set a record for the most rapid strengthening ever recorded in a hurricane.
