Except for the heat, that is. Much like Oklahoma, it’s gotten really hot and humid around here (not Oklahoma hot, of course, but yesterday was the hottest day of the year here at 93°, and today should be the third day in a row that it’s gotten into in the 90s). The normal high temperature for this time of year is about 75°, and it’s looking like we won’t get lower than the current 76°. So, yeah, for us, that’s hot. <\/p>\n
Not only is it hot, but it’s also back to work today after four days off. As if that thought wasn’t revolting enough, it’s also back to school day (whatever happened to “Black Wednesday”? They start on Tuesday now?), so we have to fight the damn school buses on the way in. I’ve expressed my annoyance with school buses in the past (I just wrote the check for the annual school taxes, and may I just reiterate that for the amount of money I’m paying, the goddamn kids and buses should have to yield to me) so I won’t get into it again (it’s too hot to get all worked up). Suffice it to say, after dealing with construction all summer, it just makes for one more big old pain in my ass.<\/p>\n
In fact, I’m thinking of starting a new religion. I don’t have all the details worked out yet, but one the central tenets will be “Thous shalt not yield to school buses, school children, not those in crosswalks.” So “the man” netter not even think about infringing upon my religious beliefs. <\/p>\n
On top of that, summer is basically over. It starts getting dark really early, really fast from here on out. In a month, the sun will be setting by about 6:30 – and I still have an overwhelming amount of things I need to get done to get ready for winter. <\/p>\n
But first I guess I better get ready for work.<\/p>\n
So long summer, you will be missed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
