'Cause I don't have enough to do already

Air that is warmer than you...

is uncomfortable to breathe. I think that is the threshold between bearable and calling it quits: 98 Fahrenheit. That has been the territory we've been in for too long now. We've had over 30 days of 100 plus degree heat and there is no end in the forecastable future. Tomorrow, however, is a hurdle. Noon tomorrow marks the middle of my Summer. Being a 'glass half full' kind of guy, I feel it's all downhill from here. The days continue to grind on, and life won't seem to move faster than a crawl until mid August, but still I am happy. There is a light at the end of the tunnel, and it's not a blinding, searing light either. The days are getting shorter- I can feel it.
Things I have been doing (before 11:00 am): changing brake pads, a short paddle in Town Lake, and a 15 mile bike ride with my son (who is going for the cycling merit badge).
