      I think it’s because the air is moving. Yesterday was not much wind so to me it felt hotter. Going to be a nasty night once the wind drops though.

    I’m home from my cheap motel split system utopia. Apartment is gross but I’ve gotten here early enough in the day to hopefully cool it before the sun really starts hitting the windows.

    Seriously considering tinfoiling my bedroom wall of windows.

      A cardboard box seems to help heaps. I put that on my west facing windows between the glass and curtain and it’s no longer radiating tons of heat back into the house. I reckon a couple of those windscreen sun-visor things would work a treat too, if they had suction cups on them.

    I would not normally have any reason to say this, but tonight I wanna be in Warrnambool. It’s 22 deg there.

    Good morning. Bedroom is 28C like yesterday but it feels way warmer. I suppose it’s the humidity.

    I do not understand people who cut jeans into shorts so short they are mostly loose flapping pockets. Just looks weird.

    I braved the heat to fill my car with bags to take to the op shop tomorrow. I fitted in way more than I thought I would, only 2 bags left for now - but I’m about to start filling up more! I’ll need to buy more bags when I am out tomorrow, this decluttering jag is going through them at a great rate.

    Managed to get to sleep, then woke up screaming with horrific leg cramp. Don’t forget some salty things with all that water you should be guzzling!

    Watched half of Poor Things. The camera work is stunning, the production design amazing. The story is trite. I quit half way through.

    Then I watched American Fiction. I lolled when Thelonious observed that many stories are " they discovered masturbation"

    I have decided to donate my bike if I can find someone who wants it. It is currently mostly a collection of parts that need to be put together, as I intended to do some repairs and got as far as buying parts and tools and pulling it apart before losing enthusiasm. I have made enquiries with the local communiy centre that does regular bike repair and demonstration workshops, I’m hoping they will be interested in taking it to use as a demonstration project that can then be donated as a working bike to someone who needs it.

      CERES or Bicycle Recycle might be interested. If you near Springvale I can give you a hand assembling it. I like working on bikes.
