It was hot today. Not as hot as in other places, I saw it was over 100 degrees Fahrenheit before 10:00 a.m. in Las Vegas. But it was uncomfortable nonetheless.
The internet crapped out very suddenly this afternoon, right in the middle of an email. I had to tether to my cell phone to finish sending it, but the modem rebooted and reconnected right as I hit “send.” I’m not sure what happened, and Spectrum hasn’t offered any explanation. I then had to spend about a half hour reconnecting all of the smart home devices, most importantly the thermostat. The AC still hasn’t caught up.
We had the rest of the farmer’s market hot dogs and sweet corn on the cob for dinner. It’s still too warm, so I think I’ll take a quick shower before bed. Even the birds are subdued. Houdini was already tucked under his wing when I covered him for bed.
Goodnight everyone.
