Big Wednesday...

Or as I like to call it "Monday #2". Wednesday always seems to have that Monday feel for some reason. Usually because I start the day running late, or forget something, or have an unusually heavy workload, which was the case today. From 7 until almost three I had requests piling in and then one of our plotters crashed and I had to improvise and shift some stuff to another one and then hadconnection problems to the server-like I said Monday #2.
But it wasn't all bad, I did get everything done and can start tomorrow with a clean slate. I was not late and even bailed out a tad early and beat some of the rush hour mayhem. Got home and my daughter had dinner made which was nice. So I got to eat and then headed out in the heat to get a walk in and clear my head. July in Oklahoma is really not the best time to exersize outside because it is fucking hot. I was ten feet from the end of the driveway and I was already soaked, but I powered through and got a good mile and a half in before the heat started to make me weak.
I love living in Oklahoma, mostly because of the weather. The heat sucks but it usually doesn't last to long, and sometimes we get a break, like last week when we had three days of 70 degree high temps. I also like living in a place that is cold in the winter, I do love the winter. Nothing gets my blood pumping like a brisk cold early morning, but it is hell on my knees. The only downfall is tornado season, but there is still a lot of beauty in the color and sound of an approaching thunderstorm. Nature is as amazing as it is deadly and to me that is part of the allure.
So as I call an end to another day I can only hope that a cool snap is coming, the weekend is coming faster, and hopefully I can catch up on some sleep. Til next time...
