It's after midnight and the cockroaches are frisking under the street lamps. It was 105 at 8:30pm. Ah, Texas.
We had a very awesome day doing all sorts of the things that we like to do, as I had the day off. Basically, because this is a university holiday and we get paid for university holidays, I got paid to have fun.
The highlights:
We purchased black-out curtains (to curtail the growing electric bill) and found the perfect "reading chair" for David, which we will purchase as soon as the budget allows.
This evening we went to a showing of Casablanca in an outdoor theater with some friends. It was way too hot and we sweated the whole time, but I loved the movie. Then we went to a sweet cafe and drank iced tea. Now we are home.
I made a discovery today. When crazy Texas mosquitoes get stuck in our apartment, they choose to suck David's blood and completely ignore me. This is also true of spiders. Moral of the story: David tastes better. This discovery could come in very handy for future scientific experiments.
