Boring and Hot

This weekend was filled with too much empty time. Time that was expanded by the heat! It was over 100 on Sunday and in the mid-90s on Monday. It was even that hot on the beach in a number of places so I just stayed home without the air conditioner and tried to stay temperate.

Monday I tackled the gardening chores around 9 so I wouldn't fry and then went with the Bethkes to the champagne brunch at the club around 10:30. At least that way I ate. Watched Tiger try to overcome Singh's 3 stroke lead, tie him, then fall back again to three strokes and lose not only the tournament but the number one ranking he has had for over 5 years. Read some of the Angle of Repose and watched a few cop shows throughout the evening.

I had a contentious argument with myself on where I should eat dinner and decided on Mexican only to find La Fresca closed for Labor Day so I ended up at the deli. I'm learning how to use the DVR so I've set up a few series for recording - like the Amazing Race so Carolyn can watch it when she returns.

Today I'm back at work so at least I can busy myself with work in an air conditioned office and maybe I'll even be able to scrounge a free meal for lunch. At home, I'm hoping I'll see the flooring guy appear either today or tomorrow so we won't have to walk on old tile mastic as we walk into our home. We can hope.
