Odd.

.
.
It is 80 inside, 68 outside, pretty much like yesterday night.  But it feels a lot cooler.  There might be some mechanical reason, or... I am acclimating.  I simply can't tell.  What I can say is, a night or two like this and I could make it back to working.  A few cool days and nights ever few weeks, to get my bearings back.  Hmm...  You know, I could always take a trip.  Nothing fancy, just head out for a few days, and pick the hotels well, or places with several hotels to actually check out before accepting.  I hate it when you get to a place and are stuck with a hotel that seems to not want you to use their ac, or doesn't even allow it.  Avoid college towns, they try to push that from time to time.  For the environment.  Yeah, no, that isn't acceptable.  Anyway...  Well, and I could look for another ac unit.  Not sure where to put in though, to be honest, or how much it would really help.

I would like to get to some things.  Housecleaning, the shade structure for the kayak, a ton of things.  But I honestly would hate to do a damn thing that might ruin this cool I am enjoying.  Even at 68 outside, it wouldn't take much for me to bust into a sweat.  Remember, I consider 72 and up hot, and say... 40 to 72 and where I like it when not all that active.  So 68 is... pushing the line.  Now, I wouldn't mind if I this last few weeks didn't leave me feeling cooked to a medium well.  I need a break, and will enjoy it.  Though, if the heat keeps up, and I feel hounded, I may see about a lodge in the mountains.  Idaho, Utah, don't care.  Just that it be high elevation and forecast for cool on top of it.  Not just going to take it this time.  And might look for another ac while I'm thumbing through the web.

I have been enjoying the kefir.  Finally, tonight, I developed a true double "brew".  It was much thicker, fermented twice, and I poured off the whey.  So it should be extremely pungent.  I haven't tried that yet.  There wasn't much and I didn't want to try what little there was while it was warm.  If it's a bit too sharp, I may blend frozen fruits, maybe add a bit of sugar... turbinado.  If that isn't enough, I'll just try regular sugar.  Who knows.  My first real smoothy, if I get to it.  I think after this run, I can go to using one quart at a time, unless I really like the double brew.  If you pour of that whey, you only end up with about a third of a quart.  You can use that whey for things, like fermenting cabbage into sauerkraut.  One thing at a time, though.  Still, it's... on the mind.  And you can just mix it in to soften the double.  I just wanted to try it double and down.  Maybe in a bit.

Yeah, enjoying the "cool", if I don't quite get it.  Same temp, same everything.  All good.  Later.
