I'm doing what I can to build an 'exit strategy' that can get me out of Cubicle World.

If I can leverage my voice talent into voiceover work and even narration (think: books on tape), then I'll be on my way to FREEDOM! I may still have to work every day, but it won't be the same four walls all the time. PLUS, I have a connection inside PIXAR, so...who knows??

Is it hot where you are?

How do the kids handle it?

Yes, it was in the 90's today. The kids whine about being hot and beg for popsicles! We're all very light-skinned, so I usually keep them inside through the early afternoon, to avoid drastic sunburns.

Hi!

I just remembered that link you sent earlier.
Thank you.
I'm going to enjoy that.

Yes. I try to use it as little as possible, because the electric bills get very high. We've been turning it on in the late afternoon, and by about midnight, it's cool enough outside for it to stop turning on. We open the windows in the morning.

Eventually, we'll be having overnight lows in the 80s, and then we won't open the windows.

If you're on a dial-up connection, be aware that it takes a few moments to appear. I know 'Face and I_T couldn't see the graphics, on their first try. I_T's on a 64K connection and he went back and tried a second time and, after waiting it out, it came up just fine.

It's OK, I'm on HS.

It's my brain that is the problem.

Is it humid, or mostly just hot?

Nah, you probably just put it in the fridge when you meant to put it in the cupboard.

Either that, or put it in the bathroom when I meant to put it in the living room...
