Cool, it is dark as night outside my window. No rain though. It's been a long time since I've seen it this dark.

Rocket surgery is an interesting if unexpected offshoot of the brain science discipline.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Hey, sometimes AI's need surgery too.

My brother ate those. I have a picture somewhere. Couldn't get the nephew to try them, though.

I'm obsessing about a/c mounting brackets because the humidity is something ridic like 80% and I can't for the life of me figure out how the ones that came with my units work with my windows.

I almost put my ac in in the middle of the night last night. It was that hot and muggy and I was sleeping okay but the dog was not and when he doesn't sleep well I don't sleep well.

Mine doesn't have brackets though.

You just shove it out the window? I'm terrified to do that for the one that'll hang way above the deck.

Last night I had a dream that Martin Starr (the guy who played Bill Haverchuck on Freaks and Geeks) took away my anti-depressent, swallowed it, and offered me Tums to replace it. WTF?

I dreamt that Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs was trying to convince me to revive my dream of being writer.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have mine just shoved out the window. You're supposed to screw it in to the frame, but mine are metal, and I couldn't deal. It's been fine since last summer!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

We never had our A/C permanently mounted when we were renters - too paranoid about the security deposit!

Now that the windows belong to us (and we're more paranoid about D climbing on things than putting holes in the wall), both units are permanently screwed into the windows. We'll probably leave them there when we move.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I'm glad my current place has central air, although I've been pretty lucky and haven't had a really hot summer since I moved in three years ago.

I was chatting with my brother yesterday to wish him happy birthday (which is today), and he was telling me that he was filling out a loan application for his part of his son's tuition. I made him laugh (ruefully) when I vastly underestimated how much a year's tuition is (I guessed $25K, he said it was more like $40K). Now I know why my parents were so glad for my financial aid package (out of four years, they only had to pay for less than $10K total; my loans and scholarship took care of the rest).
