No storms here yet. If they'd drop the temp even 10 degrees and suck some of the humidity out, that'd be GREAT.
Not even going to mention the interior temp right now. Will be another night on the livingroom floor, I think.
And strongly worded letter to maintenance. I can get the number of the main owners in NJ, so I think I'll put in a call to them just to light a fire under local management.
I hate this.
Time to go rescue laundry from the cool basement. Which will make coming back up miserable.
the sun finally came out here. It is in the 70's I think. someone knew I had painting to do. if I ever get the chance to start
Cool and foggy here in SF, as it tends to be in August. I recommend that all of you who are hot just come and visit me.
Oakland A's - Bart Simpson - Reliable bad-boy winners who march to the beat of their own drum. Locked in a constant struggle against the overbearing establishment. Every time you think they're going to get what's coming to them, they weasel out of it and surprise you again.
Sweet weasely goodness!
Emmett played his last tournament baseball game this morning. Despite their best showing all summer (they went 4-1 in this tournament) they missed the finals game by losing this morning. Apparently they were half asleep for the 9am start-time, and were missing easy outs for the first three innings. There's some distressing talk about Fall Ball though.
We saw Sky High afterwards (again - as Bad News Bears was already gone). Saw the Narnia trailer and it looks...fantastic. In a big fantasy epic way - not in a veiled Christian allegory way. I might have to leave JZ home to see that one.
She's off at Faire workshop again fussing over period dialect. Emmett's on the couch reading Uncle Scrooge comics (it was inevitable he'd eventually discover Carl Barks, I suppose, with all those images of swimming in money).
Happy belated birthday to Erinaceous!
Nice that I spent all day "mentally preparing" to do laundry, and now it's too late. Maybe tomorrow.
Announcement: I make damn good quiche.
Revelation: But 1% milk isn't the best choice for quiche-making.
Analysis: Embrace the butterfat.
Outcome: I'm still eating the quiche. 'Cause it gooooooood.
Quiche-eater!
Emmett's playing the "Cheese Roll Call" right now. What's in your quiche?
I'm drinking Cheerwine.

A blend of asiago, fontina, and romano. Yummmm. Also spinach and crabmeat (neither of which are cheese, just in case you weren't aware).
The wonder of quiche is how easy it is to make. It looks all fancy and complicated, but it's really not. It's like an omlette in a pie crust.
