How's the throat, Dusty?

the heat kinda sucks. I went from Austin back to DC this morning. Austin was way more comfortable.
I'm enjoying this 25°C - 30°C summer. Hope it will stay this way.
Thinking about going to the US next year for 2 or 3 weeks again, like always. (but now more serious)
like to study or jobhunting kind of serious?Quote:

I would kill for 25-30 degrees. This last week has been 35 plus humidity, which has brought it up to 42 or 43 degrees everyday. It has been awful.Quote:

How is summer going for you guys? Everything alright?
Not had much of a summer. Weather's been weird and I've had/have a lot of business travel july and august. I just want things to hurry up so Viv and I can move at this point.
Maybe I missed this in another conversation, but where are you and Viv moving?Quote:

A job as a mailman sounds interesting!Quote:

Summer is definitely going by way too fast. I don't even know where July went, and we are already almost in September.Quote:

And I just got bit twice by a German shepherd, when I was doing my job as a mailman. This sucks really hard.
same dog or different ones?Quote:

Ha, the race went good! I won the price for best sprinter.
congrats!Quote:
