Today: Leading 10am, nowt else planned.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

Work is a struggle today as the heat is driving me senseless. All I can hear is the hypnotoad sound going through my head.

Walked 2 miles to work before 7am wearing a wet shirt straight out of the washing machine (which I switched on when I awoke before 5.30am). It was dry when I reached my destination.
Spent 7am to 4.40pm in large cool air-conditioned office with a few colleagues, just venturing out into the heat to HMV at lunchtime to grab a Multiverse of Madness Blu-Ray.
Roasted on the walk home, despite keeping to shady side of street wherever possible. Arrived home drenched in sweat.
Pizza tonight.

I went for a run at 5pm in 31 degrees heat because I am a fucking idiot.

So easy to misread that health emergency advice which says "Stay inside" as "Go for a run".

So easy to misread that health emergency advice which says "Stay inside" as "Go for a run". Martin Trying to keep my fitness up and the running is good for my mental health, so took a risk. I gambled and it has backfired, I feel like Robert Bruce Banner and I am about to be transformed into a dark reflection of myself.

Morning All!
It's Tuesday
Yesterday: Hot! Did very little
Today: Also Hot! Nothing planned. Tech job for Liz but that involves a password she probably doesn't have.
Pray Day goes OK, Sinuses, CMT and Head cope OK. Pray we stay protected from the virus.
Have a good day, stay safe & well.

It's 30 degrees already and today is one of the busiest days at work of the year when 130,000 students realise their module results are ready. I am also scheduled on the phone all day due to this. The heat is killing my brain already. Send help.

Big increase in people in the office today who couldn't take a second day of work without air conditioning.

Can we visit your office for research purposes?
Congratulations to Mr Burns on adding a degree to the thermometer. When's the graduation?

Congratulations Ralph!
33 degrees in the classroom today. One degree less than the number of children in it.
Needless to say schools do not have air conditioning in classrooms.

It's been this hot before.
I remember flying around, bouncing from job to job. Doing unspeakable things.
