With coffee and writing implements at hand, I can determine the shape of today.

I tend to write in the morning. After morning coffee and writing comes whatever the day holds...work, more writing, family time, reading, maybe even some gaming. It just depends...but writing first, always. And once I start writing, I get an idea not only of what I'm writing about, but how the rest of my day will go. Hence, the shape of today.

After this past winter, which saw me going to work in the teens some mornings, I promised myself I wouldn't complain about the summer heat.

It was hard to keep that promise this week, though, I admit. When I left work on Tuesday the car's temperature showed as 110, and that's with the sunshades up. I don't normally run the AC on my fairly short commute to and from work, but I did that afternoon!

Relief began working its way in yesterday, however, and this morning it's in the sixties with a nice breeze. No errands today, no work. Just me, my library book, my recliner, and a spoiled but loving cat. Occasionally interrupted by bouts of eating, gaming, and napping.

I'll take it! Winter, after all, is coming.
