June 24: Another Heat Wave Note

[kinetic_elaboration]

Today was very much like yesterday except the AC situation at work was better (some people were still having problems I guess, but where I was, I was comfortable) and after work I did some reading instead of writing. The work days are still long, and I’m still trying to be productive. It’s still scorching hot and humid outside. I took another couch nap–my thoughts are always the weirdest when I’m lying on my back and half-drifting–and another early-evening shower. I am feeling quite tired again at about the same time, a good time for me to be tired.

But I still need to brush my teeth and do some evening writing. So I don’t really see myself getting to bed before midnight. I guess if I really rushed right now. But… I don’t want to get up. I don’t want to rush.

I also broke out my new needles and started knitting again. I love crafts!!! The one craft I can do on a very basic level <3. I’m out of practice so my wrist and fingers are feeling it a little bit, but I did miss it very much. My new needles are very fancy, heavier than the bamboo I usually use, but nice, and a pretty color.

Honestly this heat wave isn’t treating me too badly… I feel like I have actually been doing things. Maybe the four day weekend really helped. Maybe, even though I haven’t been taking a shower quite as early as I should, focusing on the shower as a necessary, preliminary thing helps. I don’t know! Tomorrow my After Work Task should be cleaning of some sort. Boo.
