I was complaining about the heat and someone on Discord called me Sous Vide
B and unfortunately that is completely accurate.
(I have central air, out in Buffalo. I got it last year. It’s fucking
amazing. Alas, this house cannot be retrofitted for it.) (there’s a window
unit but I can’t actually put it in.)
Chicken processing tomorrow and I have been not quite managing to get into
bed for like an hour now. I really should go to sleep, I need it. It’s just
so goddamned hot.
Supposed to thunderstorm, and break the weather. It’d be nice if it did.
They planted All The Tiny Baby Plants today, including a bunch of corn
transplanted after dinner, while I supervised Farmkid attending a Zoom
presentation by the local library featuring a cat behavioral specialist.
Despite it not being aimed at children, Farmkid was extremely attentive and
engaged and typed several questions into the chat that then were answered
and they unmuted her so that she could elaborate on her question which she
did very succinctly and informatively. The presenter, at the end,
complimented her and only her on her excellent questions.
She has like a week left of second grade, it’s very exciting. She is also
far more accomplished than I now at online meeting etiquette. She knows
when to mute and unmute herself and how to use the software and is so good
at keeping tabs on what’s going on. And then she is upside-down on the
couch through the whole thing, or on the floor, or facing away…
I don’t know how she’ll adjust back to in-person school, where there’s less
tolerance for being upside-down at your desk. But. She’ll manage, she’s
very resilient.
Whew okay. Time for sleep. I hope. I hear that thunder coming. I hope I
don’t have to close windows, there’s no fucking ventilation in this room as
it is….
