extreme heat

and dust. it was a hot, sticky day - but in the middle of it a sandstorm came up while i was outside and travelling back to my office.

waking up this morning was terrible, but once it was done and i'd made it to base i was actually okay! i even got some work done!

aside from the 4+ hours spent travelling to see the doctor (gotta have a bump removed, i've decided to do that after the dream theatre and chris cornell concerts), i threw the day towards a cute yet very necessary ASCII translator.

parsing in c# is frustrating.

i've just finished reading john keats - hyperion, and have just begun fall of hyperion. slow going, although i can only blame myself because i made more jelly (it set while still warm!) and i keep trying to strum the guitar while reading so that my fingers can get used to the F chord.
i hope it's worth my while because i'm feeling pressured - and the mongoose is coming over in a couple of hours so there's not much night left.
