Humanity has just run out of road

 Today was the fourth day of summer and the fourth morning that I went out the door wearing a jacket. Wife and I went out tonight in jackets. Wet, windy, cool days, with sprinkles off and on all day, doesn't feel like summer at all. And nothing is growing "right" in this water-logged, gloomy environment. All the plants seem to be on hold, even grass isn't growing, just sitting there being green.

Deer are moving too. That's odd for June. A new dead deer on the side of the highway every morning since the Solstice. With no field activity there's no reason for deer to be scampering about and jumping in front of cars. Maybe they heard Bernanke and Obama speeches and decided to kill themselves.

I almost expect to see the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse any time. Everything has a feel of ending soon. We're all just going through the motions now. Humanity has just run out of road.
