How can it be October when it's 85 degrees out?

[pbray]

Been a busy week here--at the day job it's end of quarter madness, and since they've entrusted me with the keys to the systems, it falls upon me to help ensure that the databases are up and running. Should I screw up, there's a sizable number of folks who'd be dead in the water until we restored from the previous night's backups, giving them plenty of time to fashion Patricia-dolls and stick pins in them.

The weather here continues to be unseasonably warm--the heat is off, the dehumidifier in the basement is back on, and the windows are open at night in order to cool the house down. Luckily I hadn't packed away my summer clothes, since that's what I've been wearing this week.

Which makes it hard to remember that we're already in October. WFC is now less than four weeks away, and there's a whole host of things I want to accomplish before then, and I still need to make the beer buying run. But at least I know I'll be stylishly dressed, since Jennifer has designed an incredible t-shirt for the zombie hosts.

Now off to see if the database job has finished, and then to harass jpsorrow at his booksigning.

You might have the title of a hit song there...
