Surprisingly it is much less hot to bike around the lake. Went this morning before it got too hot. It is pretty bad though for the 10 minutes it takes to drive home.  It's crazy how hot it is even first thing in the morning.

I'm up after a fitful night of sleep, which I am NOT happy about.  At one in the morning, all by its lonesome, the jets in the Jacuzzi went on.  I thought it was someone outside idling his motorcycle.  When I figured out what the sound was, I saw that "spa" was lit up on the remote control in the bedroom.  I pressed the button to turn it off and it would not turn off.  I went outside and tried to turn it off with the button that's IN the Jacuzzi.  That didn't work either.  Just before getting back into bed, I pushed the button in the house and it turned off.  For six minutes, at which point on it went and stayed on all the livelong night.  It's still on.  I woke up at five-thirty because on top of that noise, the sprinklers went on (they're supposed to) - I feel asleep at six and probably would have slept till eleven had the telephonic device not rung with a totally unnecessary call from an idiot who's been asking for one copy of Pirates for the last three days - I've told him repeatedly that if I HAVE one in the emergency stash, I have to find it and that I'd let him know.  So, I'm overtired and when I get like this the chance that I'll get sick rises a lot.  So, I have to try and get some sleep later today and tonight I'm going to bed at eleven.  The Handy Man is on his way to see what he can do about turning these damn jets off.  If he has to he'll shut the pool stuff down at the breaker, but I don't really want that, although it may reset everything and that would be good.  If not, I have to let the business managers of the owner know, and they won't do anything for weeks.  I don't know if the pool man knows about this stuff, and he doesn't come till next Wednesday.

Good morning, all! Yes, indeedy, it's too freakin' hot! I have to go to Toyland this morning for another round with the scanner. Hopefully, the 2nd Entr'Acte will be waiting for me, so I'm taking the original score for that with me so I can edit it there in the A/C.

Last night's dream, which I cannot remember well, featured as its hero our DR FJL, who risked his life to ensure that a power failure provoked by the villains in the dream did not prevent a happy occurrence from happening. I neither remember what the happy event was, nor why the villans wanted to prevent its happening, but I do remember DR FJL and finding reasons to get the owner,manager of a huge hardware store out of the way so we could investigate methods of getting to the power cables, and I remember DR FJL hangign upside down from a fire escape trying to repair things. Who knew, Fred?




Sounds like the type of strength and energy I actually had in my twenties, maybe a bit into my thirities.  These days, i'm lucky if I can hang out right side up on a terrace without getting dizzy.  :)

I liked it a lot, as did my friends Sharon and Tamara.  Betty and Nita didn't care much for it and Katie and Marianne hadn't finished it.  Katie might, based on our discussion, but Marianne decided not.

 ;D  Thanks for the breakdown which is much like the mixed reviews I saw.

Does it bother you that out of 5 people only 3 read the book?

However...

I did manage to get up a bit early - well, early for me - and I was able to get all of my errands run this morning. It was already up to 90 degrees at 10:30, and I believe we're about to break 100. And the "Real Feel" is supposed to top out at 115+. UGH!

~~~~~JACUZZI JETS OFF VIBES TO BK~~~~~


*bk - If you think you're going to get sick, you're going to get sick. Just breathe, stay hydrated, eat sensibly and take a nap. -And if you do for BBQ, just don't eat any of the bread - even if you get the sandwich. That'll save you a bunch of calories.

DR John I have had hypoglycemic attacks like that.  For years I never went anywhere without carrying some sort of snack with me.  Now I don't need to worry too much about it & of course while my symptoms were similar & not fun my risks as a result were not as great.

I went outside and flipped all the pool breakers off and then on again.  That seemed to do the trick.  Handy Man is still coming, and will check it out, but hopefully it just was some weirdness that is now fixed.

Who knew, Fred?

So, I will shortly head downtown, where I will hopefully not be too long today. Following that, I'll return here and bask in my poverty, a situation that currently has me feeling unhappy and angry at the world. I told Ron Raines last night that it was the frustration and rage that were taking up too much of my diminishing mental capacities and depressing me. I'll try working out some of that stress by working on my personal projects. God knows I'm not getting any professional projects.

TOD:
    DVD:  three Netflix items, some Amicus horror anthologies
    CD:  I'm not much in the mood to listen to anything at the moment; tv noise is fine company
    VCR: this porn is stale

Last night we watched the last episode of LARK RISE TO CANDLEFORD. :(   

We also watch the episode of MAVERICK where brother Bart made his first appearance.  It was an excellent episode.

I don't know what we shall watch tonight, MAVERICK, WAGON TRAIN, and LAWMAN or PALADIN.

We have several episodes of BURN NOTICE to watch except Keith is tired of the show.  He likes the new SciFi show ALPHAS which bored me.
