91 is hot!

UNCLE!

I CRY UNCLE!

OK, 91 is HOT!  Actually, I could probably still deal with it.  I get home at 6, and by 9 it is OK in here.  The problem is that the girls will spend some time here during the day, so we can't have it this hot.

I got home tonight and let Hawkeye out, and later asked him if he'd like to come back into the house.  He turned around slowly, lifted his right paw, flipped me off and said, "Screw you, woman!"  OK, dude.  I know it's hot in here.  No need to be rude!

My a/c quit, my garbage disposal quit, my hot water heater is leaking (but still working) and on Sunday, my dryer quit.  I was ready to throw in the towel and go back to renting, until neighbor Jimmy (bless his soul) told us that he had a dryer down there, doing nothing.  Well, let's put it to work, my friend!

The garbage disposal has been replaced with a straight pipe (we have a dog, after all) and the dryer situation is handled for now.  The a/c guy will be called tomorrow, and the hot water heater can leak until it quits, or until I have $500 extra lying around.  Anyone want to gift $500 to me?  No?  I thought not.  I can handle the slow stream in the basement.

The girls come home on Saturday, and I can't WAIT!  I called them twice, and sent texts twice tonight.  I try not to contact them more than 4 times per week, so that they don't get sad, missing home too much.  Now, we're 2 1/2 days out, so I can call all I want.  They're stoked!  We'll go firework shopping next week.

Oh, and JIM IS COMING THIS WEEKEND!  HE'S BRINGING MY GEORGIA PEACH OF A NIECE WITH HIM!  Yeah, you guessed it.  I'm excited.  We'll have so much fun.  On the 4th, we'll have many folks around, and Kevin will grill, wearing his new apron that Mom bought for him in Branson.

Yeah, Dad, Mom got the credit.  Sad, huh?  Kevin lives that crap, so talk to him.

Anyway, we've got appliance troubles, but much to be thankful for.  I choose to focus on the good stuff.  I'll see Jim and Lyndsay in a few days.  It's about time!

Oh, and one more thing...for Russ.  There was an awesome cartoon on www.tinylittledivision.com today.  It wasn't up for long.  Was it pulled for the questionable content?  Is there any way I could get it emailed to me?  4 of us at work saw it before it was pulled.  We NEED this cartoon.  It's like a drug, man!

Peace out, suckers!
