That sucks. Ours sucks past 100 degrees. We just use 2 large window ac units. One on each side of the house. What are your nighttime low temps like 85? Lol
Right now low 80s and sometimes gets a bit cooler. It's hard when it's 118 and 96 at night. But so far none of that. Worse is the monsoons and high humidity. This year has been a good year. I have some pretty efficient central air and good insulation but still. I whine it's what I do.

I hadn't planned on doing anything today anyway. With moving the couch and chair into the house (including removing the front door for clearance) and my car getting jacked yesterday I'm pretty much done for a couple days. Insurance guy is showing up Fri, cops have the report ready already.

I install a battery disconnect on all my stuff, it really helps with the ones I don't drive much. Of course the radio stations are f'ed up but for some dumbass in the dark.... they ain't getting shit. I started doing it because of how the computer drains the battery, but it helps with tweakers too.

It is (temporarily) fucking spectacular here. Cool and breezy, temp dropped over 10° and sun went away.

Storm alerts on both weather apps, everybody seems to be taking cover.

I just chased him out of the fenced in back yard so the dog can go out without chasing Phil around.

He lives under the shed with a rabbit family. Lots of little ones of both.

We were 110+ feel like temp for the past 6 days, today the rain came to visit. Thanks rain:grin:



View attachment 4379848Still humid af but it’s not 110:eyesmoke:
It only feels like it LOL

PS You'll be pleased to know it's 111 here right now. One of my baby ravens flew up and called. I took him a beef ball and a solo cup of water. He ignored the beef and drank the cold water, poor kid

I guess it's the new normal around here. Someone a couple blocks away had their car stolen and wrecked by a 15 year old. I guess I can't even leave my windows down to let it cool off a bit inside. That might have kept them from getting broken though.
I learned the hard way in Stockton(the good part)not to leave your garage door opener in your truck.

Mother fuckers broke into my truck, somehow my alarm didn’t go off and it was 100% armed, ripped off my subs opened my garage and went to town.





Overnight. While I was home! Fuckers!

$794 replacement cost, plus towing to the shop. I'm still carrying full coverage so it will cost me $100 out of pocket, thank goodness.

So crazy. A few Christmases ago a guy got shot with a crossbow. It's just insane.
We had a tyre with rim thrown at us yesterday at work lol. I asked the lady owner the house next door if we could lay bricks on there property or I would have to lay the wall overhand (threw the frame of the house because the wall was on the boundary looks hideous). She said that’s fine 3 hrs later I hear a bloke screaming, like lost his mind screaming. I turn around and there is a bloke running at as holding a tyre above his head screaming at us to get the fuck off his property he was like 6/3 probably 45. He threw the tyre at us missed us and hit the wet wall behind us. Keeps charging at me still screaming fuck off you c. But by now my adrenaline was pumping and I showed him my Frankston folk dancing skills. Now he’s going to get the ugliest brick wall in Melbourne and he’s limping around today with a face only mother could love I mean Fair Dinkum what’s wrong with this world.
Just trying to make some bread and I get to deal with clowns like that and cost me $500 in brick work as well which I’ll send him the bill.
Best part is he called the police and he’s the one getting in trouble. Cops even told me to do a victims of crime claim because it happened at work. I won’t say no to free money. I’ll tell the judge I can’t get out of bed in the mornings because of the anxiety the incident has caused and I’ve developed phobia of tyres which has caused my pot addiction

ROFLMAO!! You don't fuck with brick masons. I mean jesus you guys are mostly built like, well, brick shit houses.

How can you even drive to work when your vehicle has those evil tyres on it that want to attack you?
