Um, literally, Henry is the most exciting thing that is going on right now, besides the record-breaking temperatures (short version: it’s really hot). Well, that’s not exactly true: Telfer did start his first year of anesthesia training at the beginning of July. That’s news! He gets up really early and rides off into the sunrise on his Vespa attired in blue scrubs and his brand-new Dansko clogs. He’s at the VA this month and doesn’t take call…it will be busier eventually but we are enjoying having him home evenings and weekends for the rest of the month.
What else? I am reading Madame Bovary for the first time…rationing it a chapter a night so it lasts as long as possible; we just finished the first season of Veronica Mars (I LOVE IT! Nancy Drew for the modern girl); and I am ENDLESSLY watering plants so they don’t shrivel and die in the excessive heat and ashiness (from the fires). Did I mention Henry is really cute?
No complaining about heat. it is suppose to be 104 here tomorrow, it has been around 100 for the last week, but this isn’t just any 100, this is 100 with 80% humididty (aka. “feels like 114”). Kansas City in the summer is the 6th circle of hell!

Oh, I’m so glad you’ve found Veronica Mars! I had so much fun with season 1 a while back.
