That spells HOT. Damn hot. Tied the all-time record for hot yesterday in Reno, 108 degrees (or 42C for you foreigners). That's at least two days over 100 this week, today as well, and the forecast is for high 90s for the next several days. Enough already. It's 7am and 80 degrees in this house (note: that's still 80 vs. already 80 - I think that's an important distinction; it's not that it was nicer and has risen to 80, it just never got any cooler in here). We couldn't take it last night and moved ourselves, the poor dogs and a certain sweaty two-year-old down to sleep in the basement.
We went to have the new house inspected yesterday, and their air conditioning was set to 71. It's amazing how much difference 9 degrees makes. Maybe it's just psychological, but on days like this, I'm never going outside after we move. I don't understand how people live in places where it's like this routinely (Baghdad, Arizona, Laughlin, etc.) and especially in developing/war-torn countries where air conditioning and/or a consistent power supply are a rarity.
Nothing else of note to report or link to. As usual, impending baby and impending house dominate our overheated life right now. Well, on with my day.
