Speck's Little BlogA brief outline of the life of a cat named Speck, who has travelled all over Canada.Monday, June 13, 2005So hot... Sooooo... very very hot.Adam has not invested in air conditioning, and I think he said something about it being due to the electricity in our place. *sigh* Anyway it is hot enough that I've had to resort to using the laptop. That actually works out better: the keyboard is smaller and fits my tiny hands better anyway (I'm a hunt-and-peck typer. Most of the other cats I know don't even type.) (Actually wait: they don't even know what "type" means either. So scratch that comparison.) Anwyay the only issue there is that all my contacts are not on the sleek little laptop, they're on the big, hot-running main pc. But it's so hot that I don't want to go to all the trouble of starting up the pc, the monitor, etc. Plus climbing up on the desk and all that that involves. Just too much effort. The bathroom is the coolest room in the whole apartment but there's no power in there. Nor is there a desk. Catch-22, as Adam might say. (I don't know what that means but he says it a lot, usually about dinner planning. Maybe it's about food... ? I like food! Catch-22! Catch-22!) The poor Euro is still battling away but I've moved on to commodities instead. I'd have to say that it's the best choice at the moment, really (with the exception of oil. Stay away from oil. Nasty stuff. They call it light and sweet but it is not either of those things. I personally stick with grain. I like grain!) Beyond that I noticed my spam has gone way down. At last. Adam recommended that I get a gmail account and, well, I did it. And man: life is good! No spam! To avoid further spam I have to be crafty about how I list it here. So here goes. speck at! g mail! dot! com (Have to be all sneaky these days, don't I? I wish it was because there were international spies looking for my email. Unfortunately it's just crappy spammers. Gr.) But that's it. Please note that I cannot read or respond to Japanese email on the laptop. (Besides even if I could, that monitor is way too small.) I'm off to the spa this weekend so I'll be off email for a while. But you can certainly try. :) I hope it is nowhere near as hot wherever you are reading this. And I wish I could be there. Possibly with a cold drink. Mmmmm... cold... Off I go! sPec # posted by Speck @ 1:10 PM |
