I can't wait until it cools down enough to go on casual walks again. It has been over 100°F every day for 30 straight days, and according to the 10 day forecast, it will be over 100°F for the next 10 days, too. If I want to go one walks, I need to go early in the morning, which means I need to set an alarm and plan around it. But I really miss being able to go on a walk on a whim.

That said, our weather here is amazing the rest of the year. I can go on walks all winter because it just doesn't get that cold. So I need to put up with 3 months of hellish hear to get 9 months of great weather.

The one thing I miss about living up north is that it actually cools down in the evenings. Texas stays around 100 degrees until about 9 pm.

Yep, I'm in Texas as well. This summer has been brutal .

I'm on staycation this week (I get six weeks vacation so I end up just staying home for some of it inevitably) and I'm reading a lot of books and listening to some podcasts and it feels nice to just have time off alone.

Also I'm super excited that I've officially made 3500 dollars now just off apps on my phone. I've bought myself so many band t-shirts which is my favourite thing to buy. Got some Welcome to Night Vale leggings too, and two new coats and 10 pairs of shoes and a whole lot of other stuff. It's my mad money.
