Still hot

Welcome to the "first day of Autumn". This is according to the traditional notion of seasons, one which I reject in favor of my more accurate Texas seasonal calendar. My calendar puts us only three weeks into the beginning of the two month long "Summer II", which anyone who's lived somewhere besides Texas will understand right away.
Some anonymous smart-ass left this comment on my entry about the mooon the other day, and the funny thing is, they're half-right: How would you know what the moon looks like these days? It's too hot here to even go outside in the evening.
It is too hot, but not at night when I work. Today's forecast, acccording to Intellicast, calls for "abundant sunshine". No shit. Compare this with four weeks ago, and not just in Big D, but in the whole country.
