It was a million damned degrees today, so of COURSE the chilled air was turned off in my department. At one point it was 80F with 82% humidity. Indoors. DISGUSTING. It took about 30 seconds for my can of pop to become beaded with condensation.

There are only two more days left of my staycation, and I feel like I haven’t gotten anything done. I mean, I did get a lot accomplished, but it was all boring stuff. Probably the most exciting thing was getting the mountain of Freecycle crap listed and moved out of the studio, which is now clean and ready to work in.
I also got rid of four large bags of books, so there’s room on the shelves for the eleventy million other books I’ve bought over the last few weeks. (Yes, I am now the owner of an entire set of first edition Hardy Boys books. They aren’t worth much, but they’re very entertaining. Someday I’ll re-re-read them and keep a tally of how many times Frank, Joe, and Chet are knocked unconscious. I figure they should have been in a persistent vegetative state by the 5th or 6th book.)

I love potato pancakes. Mmmm.
I do not love getting ready for the city inspector. They’re going through my complex tomorrow, so I’m madly trying to get rid of the mountain of crap in my spare room. Ugh. It’s my own fault though, for shoving it all in there instead of dealing with it. So I’m posting things on Freecycle and crossing my fingers that people pick up when they say they will. The last few times I’ve listed things, people flaked out on me.

Happy Independence Day
The Preamble from Schoolhouse Rock
There really isn’t anything like Schoolhouse Rock on TV these days. Can you imagine a network giving up three minutes every Saturday morning for non-commercial, educational programming? Not to mention that there’s no such thing as Saturday morning cartoons anymore.
