Dig this: 8:24 AM, and only 78 degrees! And down to 71% humidity!!
I awoke to tolerable morning conditions for the first time in what seems like weeks, and it sure feels like mercy, and grace to me. The rains yesterday - about a tenth of what we need, unfortunately - made yesterday seem like the most ghastly sauna, but there is promise of highs in the middle 80's (never thought that those numbers would be bringing a Woo-HOO!, but it's a pleasant switch from the 100's!). Even better, the forecast for move day on Sunday is much the same (at least for now).
I finished Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince last night over an extended dinner hour. It was worth the wait, and worth delaying the boxing effort to finish. One less obsessive distraction, anyway...
For all my local friends, I found this really cool map of the neighborhoods of Chicago. The Loop (the heart of downtown) is 32; where I currently live (Hyde Park) is 41; where I'm moving to, Pullman, is 50 (down south) and where I work in East Garfield Park is 27.
That's it - gotta run!

My wife finished Harry late Sunday night and, knowing that I'd never find time to read it, shared with me the dreadful secret.
Now I want to read it to find out how things came to such a denouement!
Ack.... Yet more proof that I've been "left behind" in reading what seems to be one of the best fiction series of all-time.... And here I thought, when the series first came out, that it would be yet another fiction series worthy of me getting "left behind"....
Dang it....
