Good Lord, it's hot!

So I should be working on music for this week's service, but it's so impossibly hot, even inside, that I'm not going anywhere near the non-air-conditioned gym. Instead, I'm sitting upstairs letting my body slowly cool back to normal, and theoretically internet shopping, although so far I've just been talking with Mandy and writing this.

I decided to bike to the eye doctor today, which is only 10 miles from Moraine. I even accounted for the fact that it was going to be hotter than Hades. What I didn't account for, however, was the fact that Alex Bell starts to get hilly the closer to get to 675, and by hilly, I mean VERY hilly. So I arrived to my doctor's appointment five minutes late and completely covered in sweat, but slightly amused at my folly. My wife didn't even believe I made it that far; when I told her, she thought I was mistaken about where I was :)

So we packed up the bike and drove me home after that. Unfortunately, my brand new pannier bike seat ripped a hook after my first day with it, so I'm definitely refunding that purchase ASAP. A coworker mentioned one on Amazon that clips on and slides off the rear rack easily, so hopefully that doesn't cost too much, and I can go buy that now :)

On the 100 Things front, I tossed out a couple things at work, and am down to 239 now. I still intend to look into some obvious questions, like what Pyro mentioned, things like whether or not underwear counts as a possession :) The risk in exempting anything is allowing that thing to grow disproportionately large, like a CD collection or something.

So, now I'm off to shop for bluetooth headphones and pannier bags, and probably wind up buying nothing!
