No kids, they are asleep.  8)

Had sleepover guest last night, dinner guests today, and was with sleepover guest, dinner guests and my girls to the swimming pool. Great day, but, for now, it's awesome not to hear a girly voice.

The air cooling unit in my room going, and the rammstein album 'live aus berlin'

Uggh...it is way too hot at the moment. I'm trying to sleep, always makes it difficult when its boiling bloody hot, and keeps me awake. Hopefully a quick shot of oxy&clonidine will make it easier to get some more sleep. I need to catch up on my rest after going about 3 days without sleeping...well, not strictly true, I did sleep for a total of maybe 15 minutes, 20 at most during that entire time, but sleep deprivation, even mild really reacts pretty badly with me.

AFAIK my bedroom just HAS to be the hottest room in the entire house. It gets baking hot when its warm and bastardly cold when winter comes. Last winter I was sleeping in my dressing gown, fully clothed, with several hoodies on, or even with my leather trenchcoat over the top of that, and still felt frozen to the bones.

The room faces the side of the house that gets the most sun. So does the lab. I always keep the lab window open to prevent any possibility of a buildup of flammable/explosive solvent vapors, I don't want the place filling up with something hideously flammable like ether or THF fumes, and getting set off by a spark inside the light switch. Or worse, something like benzene fumes, which are highly carcinogenic (benzene is pretty specific in being highly prone to damaging DNA and inducing leukaemia) And I still have quite a lot of problems storing solvents, the heat can cause them to evap through plastic containers.
Beyond the pale. Way, way beyond the pale.

I'm hearing some 'cheap' band playing cover songs in the distance for the last 2(?) hours. They played 'Woman.. take me in arms.. rock me baby' half an hour ago.  ::)

Daughters, in their zombie and Frankenstein jr moods.

One of them just apologised to me, out of the blue: "Sorry mom, for being a bad influence on your daughter".  :lol1:

The TV--a documentary about a climber who died on Mount Everest.

The noise a two-stroke compression pump makes. A neighbour has troubles with their draining (sewerage) and now a contractor (in the draining bizz) is trying to fix it (on a Sunday evening/almost 8 o'clock).

Ah, it stopped.. (thks)

Lack of sanding, drilling and what not, by the new neighbour.  :thumbup:

Wonder if they will start at 8 am again, tomorrow.  :thumbdn:
