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.

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

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I should go work on some math stuff, but I really don't feel like it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
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.

Want more sleep.

hip deep in pie
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.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
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.

Art Crawl!!!
Best friend just texted that her dog is gone.
Fall of '09 she had five pets: 3 dogs; 2 cats. One cat seriously ailing: put down over Thanksgiving Weekend. Then her oldest dog - lost to cancer in Spring 2010. And now the middle dog: also lost to cancer.
Her remaining cat is also ailing.
From 5 pets to two in 18 months.
I feel for her and I worry for myself with only one ancient cat.

I have given up on today. It's just not happening. It's weird, because I was comatose most of yesterday, but it doesn't seem to have helped.
Quick questons: Batman can beat Iron Man y/y? But can movie Batman beat movie Iron Man?
Also, can Wonder Woman beat Superman?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
BMW clad in leather is literally one hot car
ost folks love their German luxury cars fast, powerful, sleek and outfitted with only the finest Italian leather seats inside of their cars. This person loves cow skin so much, he decided to pimp the inside and outside of his BMW entirely with it.
Throughout the years, we've seen chrome cars, gold cars, carbon fiber cars, geek cars, green cars, junk cars and more, but we've never seen a leather car. That's right, some person on this planet decided having leather inside of their luxury car wasn't enough, so they had it skinned on the outside as well.
