Aaand it's back up to Parkville because apparently my pool crew can't get the ph right after a week. Not impressed with the new pool coordinator.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Ah, young minds are great.
My pool doesn't open until 8 today! Glad I checked.
Tub had actually drained this morning, hooray! Drain is still super slow, but I think just continuing with this same stuff for a while might be the way to go. Maybe I should be more concerned about adding helpful bacteria to the sewage system, but I'm not. I'm sure there's a lot of the unhelpful kind in there.

My pool opens at 7 today. Which is fine, but blah.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Ah, young minds are great.
It is true. I'm thrilled to see him so excited by science. (Or, indeed, Science!)

That's the one we quoted from in our wedding vows. Seriously.

Have fun on your travels, meara!
Today I'm hoping to get some yard-long beans from my CSA into a salt solution for fermenting, to bake a pound cake for trifle tomorrow, and vacuum my apartment.
I've been marathoning X-Files episodes lately, so I'm happy to see that Duchovney is in a new show this fall called Aquarius. [link]

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Hot and humid here.

Not too hot-hot (83F here) but dew-point is in the 70s, so it's unpleasant.

Our wings are not tired.
Looks like a nice day here. Danced the night away at the Otter Lake fire department annual Labor Day bash. They do hats and noise makers and new years stuff since no one is around on NYE. Today is a family picnic.
Good day for exploring, but the bulk of the tourist crowd will be gone tomorrow so that makes more sense.

Are yard long beans actually a yard long or is that just a kind of bean?
I had much better luck with directions (even randomly picking the correct of six exits from the metro!) this afternoon. Went to a Benedictine monastery started in the 1300s. Very neat (also, only $2.50 to enter). Now having a slice of cake and hot chocolate back at the hotel (yay executive floor lounge!)
