Too hot today
I'm lounging around, reading ebooks (Honor Harrington) and newsgroups (RPCA of course!). It is unbearably hot because the apartment complex hasn't turned on the A/C yet. So I've got a big glass full of ice and Diet Coke sitting within arm's reach, and a gel cold-pak for occasional use to cool off. Little Boy sort of moseys on over, and I can see the interest in his eyes. I try to watch out of the corner of my eye. He gently touches the cold-pak, and pulls his paw back right away. Then he pats it a couple times. Finally, he lays down and rubs his face on it. Next, I see him staring at my glass. So I reach over and hold it so he can check it out without knocking it over. Well, he doesn't want that. Everything was just fine before I told him it was okay. He wanted to be mischievous, by golly! He stomps off, but not before he slaps the cold-pak. Note: As soon as he realized I wasn't "supervising" he came back over and laid his head on the cold-pak. Poor baby! I guess I need another one - this one is his. Also, Dulce Mae has curled her tail around my glass... Hugs and Purrs -- Proof of Sanity Forged Upon Request |

and have snow on Friday, we are told. ACK! I think I will just keep things as they are, not turn anything off and on yet. Maybe change the filter, eh?

It's 81F (23C) and the afternoon has only just begun here. I did some quick shopping and after merely putting away a few items I found I'd worked up a sweat. This time last weekend I had to wear a jacket or sweater if I ran out for anything. Might have to turn the on the A/C this afternoon. However, we are expecting some storms so that may cool things off a bit. Jill |

"Christine K." wrote in message ... Too hot? Welcome to Finland. Some 20-30 cm of snow in unplowed areas and -6 degrees C (21 degr. F). It was about -15 C (3 F) only last week. The kitties tend to find the warmest spots to snooze: in the sauna before we bathe there, even during sometimes, under covers in the bed making bed-bumps (Laku too, nowadays), in the corner of the sofa. The apartment managers must have decided it's spring, no matter what the temps are... -6 C is fine with me. Even -15 C I can tolerate. It is the -20s and -30s that I found hard to bear. But I am not complaining. Yesterday it was up to +10C here in Canada's capital. The snow on the ground is melting. The snow banks which are way taller to me should start to come down. The maple syrup sap is running. In 3 weeks I can maple syrup from this year. Can spring be far away?

Not the heat, but laying around drinking iced Diet Coke, and reading Honor Harrington. Yeek! Instead I have the air conditioning on (whatever happened to spring?) and am supposed to be working on a term paper, two stories, notes on over 100 pages of American Lit, and trying to figure out how to do my math assignments, since the teacher we have can't or won't teach it so that more than one or two of us understand it. I'm really bummed about the math. Pam S. going off on a rant, when she meant only to admire Mark's good sense and excellent taste in SF series. |

Tom is still out there, but I couldn't take it anymore. It's only 86F (30C) today, we have a nice breeze blowing. Yesterday it was way hotter. -- Victor M.
