I am at school.

I still feel like shit.

I can't sleep with the noisy AC on in my room, although I am starting to suspect I am going to have to learn how soon. Because last night was not pleasant.

Today is my first day interning/apprenticing at the vintage store! I am very excited, and dithering over which dress to wear. Stripey sleeveless dress with tiny buttons down the front and robin's-egg trim, or short-sleeved shirtdress in a seafoam floral with a rolled collar?

I needed my AC this weekend, but my neighbor with the special AC-install screwdriver dealie was (wisely) vacationing upstate instead of sweltering in Brooklyn with the rest of us. So we just cranked up all the fans and windows and waited it out. When there's a breeze, my apartment stays pretty cool even in high 80s/low 90s weather. But when it's hot and STILL, there's only so much the ceiling fans can do on their own.

Even more than the AC in my room for my own comfort, I want the AC in the kids' room so that I can go back to putting Aeryn in a sleepsack. The only reason she didn't sleep through the night last night is she rolled over and got one of her legs caught in the crib bars. (Crib bumpers, we need them.) So I was up at 3:45 with her and then couldn't get back to sleep myself because it was so frelling humid.

I should go work on some math stuff, but I really don't feel like it.

God, I feel like shit this morning. I slept through all of yesterday, and I thought that should make me feel better today, but it really doesn't. I don't know what to do workwise.

The ac at work appears to be suffering in the main building. It's 10 am. That I notice this in a sundress is not auspicious. I may actually choose to go work in the server room, which is usually an icebox and gets preferential treatment even when we're running on reduced power.

Sorry for all the shit-feelings. We are at coffee bean waiting for Noah's school to open.

Want more sleep.

I got up at 5 AM to pee, and discovered that the Ant Invasion 2011 had commenced into my house. There was a highway of ants down the hallway into the kitchen, with a side road of ants branched off into the bathroom. All I have in the house in the way of bug killer is some ant bait (too slow) and diatomaceous earth, so there was a lot of swearing and stomping. What I would have given for a can of Raid.

I found where they are coming in the house inside, but not where the outside entry point is. I think it may be covered by the front stairs. I will be liberally squirting ant bait there after work, pesticide ban or not!

I tried to go back to sleep, but I was too cold with the covers off and too warm with them on.

Then I get to work and the big important staff meeting @10 tomorrow was actually at 9 today! So there was much flailing to get us all downtown to a meeting that told us nothing. @@

After all that excitement, I am just struggling to stay awake.

Sheesh, Sue, that's too much morning for morning.

I am off to the car shop. We shall see how long this all takes us.
