I don't think that's euphoria. I think that's heatstroke. You should probably see someone about that. Ideally indoors.

No, off Hanwell Road. I have seen them on the lower part of Hanwell, plus several on balconies at the apartments near the corner of Hanwell and Bishop Drive. Same lights they had last winter, maybe they had not noticed that the seasons had changed? Maybe on a timer?

The animal can be of your own choosing, but a cat or a dog is preferred, because people tend to like those. (Background music is entirely up to you, but it should not be jazz, because that is too chaotic.) There! A plan! (Disclaimer: this may not, in fact, be a good plan. But it is a plan.)
