It has been thirteen years and two hundred and
thirty-six days in a row since I overcame a bad
habit of smoking.
I was able to keep a total of 51-time push-ups
for the thirty-ninth straight day and greater
than 9-time push-ups for the three hundred and
fortieth consecutive day.

Today again, it is so beautifully sunny in Nagoya
that I feel a little fear of heat stroke.
Actually the temperature at 9 a.m. was as high as
33.1 degrees with the predicted highest temperature
of 38 degrees.
However, I have noticed signs of the end of this
deadly scorching heat.
Recently, the shrilling of the cicadas around here
has become a little bit fainter, and the sun's rays
have already started to shift position obliquely
by a slight angle, moving lower in the sky.
