salixbabylonIf I'm not on much lately or I'm not answering your emails or replying to comments or I'm not around for chatting, it's because of two recent changes:
1) It's over 100 degrees here, for the last 3 days. And we have no air conditioner and my house gets direct sun from about 9am to 8pm. It was 97 degrees *inside* the house today. I am miserable. The dog is miserable. My computer crashes. So I turn things off nd sometimes go into town where it's cooler and breezier.
Husband swears he's buying a heat sink for my computer tomorrow and also some kind of air conditioner, so help him god. I just hope like fuck they're not totally sold out at Home Depot like they were last year.
2) I'm trying to limit how much time I spend fucking around on the computer. Trying to remember to use it as a tool for work, and shut it off to make time for the *other* work that needs to get get done - exercise, house cleaning, sewing, studying, etc. I'm actually getting a lot done, so I think I'm going to continue the trend.
Invitation = Because I have OCD and, well, yeah, mostly just because I have OCD - I have decided that in the next month I'm going to read all of the existing 6 Harry Potter books to "ramp up" for the 7th. Anyone interested in joining me in reading at home and then babbling here? I'll make a post with my thoughts/observations and maybe we can have some fun discussions reacquainting ourselves with the canon universe.
