We're having a heatwave situation here, and I can't help but wonder if perhaps there's some kind of warming effect happening to our globe. The building where we have our office is air conditioned, but the west walls with their wide windows get very warm by the end of the day, and that's where my desk is. This turns out to be an arctic paradise compared to our house. I would think that the Northeast corner of the first floor, where we spend most of our time, would be the coolest part. Not so. I've tried a lot of different things to help but nothing has worked terribly well. A few minutes ago, defeated, I submitted some contact info to Home Depot's contracting department to get an estimate on installing central air.
It's not all bad. Saturday morning I completed my first novella, as many people already know. This was an incredibly rewarding experience and I plan to continue. I've already begun reworking some material I started a few years ago and hope to develop into a complete story. I'll give you a hint: my favorite flesh eating monsters might make an appearance.
