heatwave, bloody heatwave

I live in the sticks in western Arkansas, and we are currently
experiencing some of the most consistently hot temps of my lifetime
here (today 95F with a "feels-like" temp of 104F), so I keep
putting off some of the yardwork I really need to get done.

Thankfully there is a chance of rain in the next few days, so I am
going to take advantage of that if we get some precipitation, as it
will hopefully bring a slightly cooler front with it.

Besides not being able to spend as much time as I'd like outside,
not much else to complain about. I've been spending a ton of time
here in my office on the computer and catching up on some work on
our FOSS projects after finishing up the daily work for my clients.
Taking a few days off from client work the next few days as the
Fourth is tomorrow and going to have some family coming to visit,
so that will be nice as well.

Other than all that, simply ready for summer to be over! The only
thing I enjoy about summer out here where my wife and I live is
that we have a nice, big lake about 3 miles down the road, so we
can hit it up to go swimming during the hotter bit of the year,
which I always enjoy. That being said, definitely ready for autumn
to roll back around - certainly my favorite time of the year. I
love good, light-hoodie weather. :-)

I hit the liquor store last night and grabbed some of my favorite
whiskey for this week, and plan on sitting in the air conditioning
and hanging out with some friends and family, playing some guitar
with them, and having a few drinks and some good food on this
Fourth of July. Hope you all have an excellent day if you're
celebrating, as well.

Cheers, fellow Midnighters.~
