it's hot, i need to shower, the place where my elbows bend is sticky, my coffee is making me hotter. npr is on in the kitchen, the cat is asleep, and i work all day today. my family is finally coming to visit! we might go camp saturday afternoon, and for what seems like the first time in a long time, no one is "in town" and i can sleep in on sunday, and make my own coffee and breakfast.
