Heat

[iamnikchick]

I did a pretty good job of keeping the house cool yesterday during the first day of our predicted heat advisory (temps are 20-25 degrees above normal). I opened all the windows early in the morning, turned on all the house fans, got a nice breeze coming through, then lowered the shades in the afternoon to keep the sun out. It was downright pleasant

I'm strongly considering catching a movie after work so that I don't have to enter my house til after the sun goes down. It was still around 80 inside when I left this morning, so I'm expecting it to be simply stifling tonight.

We, long with half of Seattle, went to see Harry Potter last night to beat the heat. It was a good plan, though it was still hotter inside the house than outside when we got home.

I'll go catch it this weekend. The house was 89 when I got home (ugh), but managed to get down to a mere 83 degrees or so by the time I went to bed.

Today it should cool down the rest of the way.

Wait, isn't one of the perks of having your own business and working at home that you get to have margaritas any time you want?

Ha! Not if I actually want to get something done... Margaritas and invoicing don't mix.
