Timelies all!
Have had a headache most of the day.(Not unusual when fasting) Still have it after breaking the fast. Advil at bedtime for me!
Walking I get. But power walking? Why not just run for a shorter time?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
The warmest room in my house is the basement, the room with no open windows. It's currently 67 upstairs. Low of 39 predicted tonight.
The house was 62 when we got home tonight, and seeing as how it isn't going to get warmer overnight, the furnace is on for the first time since April.

I've been delaying turning on the furnace. I think I've got a week's layway before it's inevitable.

Another thing I need to do: call warrantee to do a seasonal prep. I haven't checked the overflow tank since 2009. Given the amount of air I bled last season, it probably needs draining.

As long as it is still in the 60s and 70s during the day, I can leave the heat off as long as I close up when it is colder at night. House has about a 3 day delay in adjusting to the outside without interference ( which is why the basement is still so warm-it's always closed up.)

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I finally turned on the furnace, after I found myself wanting to pull up the hood on my sweatshirt.

I always hold out until November before turning on the furnace. But it's pretty balmy here.

Just found out that my dad's best friend, of 53 years, passed away yesterday. I've known this man all my life. Just wow. Also learned that Sandy was my dad's best man for all 3 of his weddings. I was at the last two and hadn't made that connection. He taught math to generations and generations of San Francisco High School students.
Kinda reeling here.

Wine, Chocolate and Art Festival was pretty great, if very hot. Mom and Dad each found a wine to buy, we all found chocolate to buy, and Dad picked up a metal willow tree that's super cool. It was very hot, but a lot of the wine was chilled and that helped. One of the chocolate stalls had little insulated bags for their chocolate, which was awesome. Then we went to dinner and I got Roasted Bone Marrow and brought home the bones, so I have delicious stock in my future. It's still 86 in my living room, but that doesn't even feel warm right now.
I'm supposed to go see a friend's husband's band play music tonight, but I think I'm going to just watch the end of this baseball game (if it ever ends) and go to sleep.

I forgot to mention, my Y staff knows me too well. Tonight I got asked 'so now that it is cooler, more cookies? With booze? I really like kaluah?' Even they know I don't bake until my kitchen won't become a furnace. Maybe I could do that tomorrow.
