52/393: Less Than Expected
Apr. 1st, 2026 04:04 pmIt didn't rain much Wednesday, though it remained overcast all day and the ground remained damp. It was disappointing, but not really a surprise. I slept a lot, and had tasty snacks when I was awake, and finally finished the day with a sandwich, even though the day being cool it would have been a good time to use the oven. I just didn't eel like eating any of those things I had on had to bake or roast. The sandwich was decent though, and nicely washed down with the last can of Sierra Nevada Winterfest. I wish I'd bought another twelve pack of that when it was available. The Springfest they've got now is nowhere neat as good.
The indoor temperature of the apartment is still seventy degrees, so the furnace still hasn't engaged. O expect it will come on later tonight, and run a bit through Thursday, as we don't get back to warm days until Friday. Something sad that is related to that is that there is only a $45 and change climate credit this spring. Last spring it was over a hundred bucks, and I had no utility bill in either April or May, and still had a few bucks credit for June. This year I'll be lucky to get no bill in April, and I might even get one of those annoying bills for like three bucks or something. Drag.
I'm sure there was more, but I've totally forgotten what it was. I'm getting sleepy again, even though I've only been up for about ten hours. Of course the beer I had with dinner isn't helping keep me awake. I'm probably in for another one of those naps that just goes on and on. But then I've got nothing else that needs doing. I was going to fix some strawberries for shortcake, but that can wait. After all, tomorrow is another day... am I getting the vapors? Land sakes, I do declare!
