Gah! Figuring out guest list is a total stresstival!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I dearly hope you are all having much too fun to click this link, but just in case you want a glimpse of the ridiculously ginormous task I'm working on, it's to take this website [link] and turn the whole g-d thing into pdf-able documents. Someone else did just the first layer, and it's a 49 page word doc.

I've been snorfling corn chips and cashew clusters all day. With extra added watermelon. Supposed to have dinner at a friend's house. Oops. Chances are good I won't eat much.
I took Bartleby to the neighborhood 4th of July parade this morning. Even strangers commented on how good he was. The parade itself was a quaint as ever.
I left the windows open until I realized I was blowing hot air into the house with a window fan. Now, the hatches are batoned, if that's even a phrase. I put down all the storm windows and screens and turned the Levalors so the blades are pointed up. Plus, closed all the doors between rooms.
It's going to be super, super hot for the next week, so I'm trying to make the house as sealed as possible to make best use of the a/c.
Thank God for a/c, that's all I have to say.
At what temp do people generally keep their a/c? I generally do 78 in the summer.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Lisa, sorry it's so stressful.
I keep mine at 78 until the humidity is bad, then it goes down to 76. Sometimes at bedtime I have to put mac's at 75 until he falls asleep. He has fatigue induced hot flashes.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
68. I hate the heat. 78 degrees inside, I'd die.
You guys, Boston Market CLOSED. The only one in 100 miles, and it's gone. I'll starve to death. Send rations.

68.
Honestly, I'd expect to enjoy 68, but anything less than 74 and I feel like I need a sweater...which seems to defeat the purpose.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
75 while we're around, 78 elsewise.

We're 78, too, and run a dehumidifier. Of course, upstairs, with the AC set at 78 for downstairs, it can approach 90 on a sunny afternoon. It's usually down to 82 by bedtime, which is sleepable with the ceiling fan.

NO IT ISN'T.
Is there such a thing as a "coldhouse flower"? Because that would be me.

Arctic flower? Himalayan flower?
Good news, good news! /roscoe p. coltrane I talked to my boss and she agreed that the task is not only ridiculous but wrong-headed - we need to restructure the whole blessed thing. So now I'm just breaking the bad news via email to the committee chairs and setting a meeting to discuss next steps. That and my monthly report, and I'm out of here. Hopefully by 7 pm, and hopefully one of the cookouts is still going on.
Poor Frankie is so bored.
