Short Updates

Posted by Scott at 09:57 PM

Good morning! Busy day today. I have to get Michelle to the airport so that she can fly to Los Angeles. And although it's supposed to be in the mid-90's, today is also the day scheduled for installing our new A/C unit. I, of course, will be working from home today to help coordinate all of this. 6:42am

WMUR says it's our last day of high heat. Of course! 'Cause today our new A/C goes in. 7:40am

Today is Beverly Hills Day: 90210. Now back to work... 9:08am

Supposedly Sprint's 4G has rolled out in Boston this week. I'll have to see whether it reaches out as far as Boxborough when I'm in the office tomorrow. 9:21am

It's so calm, clear, and hot up here in New England. Hard to believe "Earl" is east of Florida and headin' up our way soon. 9:28am

The Fastest Helicopter on Earth Sikorsky aims to break the helicopter speed record. Why is this an IEEE article?? 9:49am

Just saw the new condenser replacing our ~10 SEER York w/a 16 SEER Carrier A/C. Man, it seems huge! >2x the size 11:36am

Ah, the smell of brazing is wafting through the house. (gack!) At first I was concerned something was overheating. 12:07am

Back from dropping Michelle off at the Manchester airport. In theory she should be taking off about now... It was almost cute how concerned she was about how the house and kids would do without her disciplined oversight. 2:37pm

FREE CHILI! in the Manchester and Souhegan Valley area! At one of my favorite local diners. 3:14pm

And behold, cool air poureth forth from the vents once again. And it was good! Esp. since it's 98°F outside. 3:30pm

I've lightened our checking account and the HVAC guys "have left the building." 5:13pm

Got the boys down to bed. We're a little concerned in that we can't seem to find Jingle tonight. Hopefully he comes around tomorrow morning. I got a brief call from Michelle at her Phoenix layover. Sounds like travel is going well so far. 8:54pm

Michelle just called from Los Angeles. She's met her father and they're driving back to the house. I can sleep knowing she's safely home. Good night all! 9:56pm
