Well, that is interesting.

I've been burning up the last few days.  So hot.  So very hot.  It is 80 in the main of the house, all of the rooms, and 85 up front.  With only one ac on upstairs, during the day, it gets to 75 to 77, if the fan makes it feel better.  Too hot, for too long.  I'm down to doing studies, a few times a day.  Getting a shower every other or several days.  And figuring out food and water for critters and myself.

I studied, again, this afternoon.  One more lesson of the standard hiragana, and one more section of the alternative pronunciations, and how those are spelled.  There are more, there were, say, three to five alternative spelling and pronunciation sets, well and the katakana... and, of course, any alternatives it might have.  Oh, and then kanji.  Yeah.  Anyway.  I studied.  Reviewing another lesson of hiragana and making flashcards for the next set of alternative hiragana.

Next, I reset all the waterers.  Several days had stacked up, if I still had enough for another couple of days.  Still, I like to be way ahead, just in case I go down hard.  Whether I can get to it myself, or to be in order for someone else to take over... I like to be up on things.  Then, I thought, ice...

Then I thought to get bottles of ice out to the rabbits.  I haven't been doing that, and they have seemed okay.  But yesterday they looked beat.  So a treat, today.  And probably tomorrow.  I walked out.  The wind was blowing.  Okay, yea, whatever.  Seen that plenty.

But that wasn't all.  Cool!  Not cold.  But cooler than the lowest I saw it all night!  And probably for several nights running.  The thermometer I trust the most read 72.  So I skipped the ice.  Wouldn't do much for them.  And opened things up.  Oh... very nice.  I can probably shut the ac's off, upstairs, open things up, and be in good shape?  I'm going to do it, hoping it will work, last.  It would suck if this just blows through and turns hot in an hour.

Just a sandwich, or two, for supper.  A pickle or two?  And a bottle of water.  Should do.  Nothing fancy, but it will do.  Well, and a cool breeze going through the cave.  One can hope it stays for a day or two.  But, to be honest, I didn't expect anything like this until mid August.  It just isn't how things work around here, usually.  I'll take it.  Later.
