Followed by the Heat
Seattle might have felt like they were having excessive heat for about the past week or so, but today was the first day that I would consider to be uncomfortably hot. It actually reached 100 today (at least according to my car), and Microsoft was fortunate enough to be having an outdoor expo type thing going on today, so that was a less than comfortable experience to attend. Andrew gets to go to that tomorrow in order to hear Ballmer talk, but considering the fact that his building lost power today due to the heat, he might rather be outside.
Fortunately my parents aren’t making me drive to pick them up at the airport tomorrow, so I’ll just be driving to their hotel sometime after I leave work. They’re staying just a couple blocks from my new apartment, so since they aren’t renting a car, it will be a quick transportation trip for me each day while I act as their personal shuttle. Still, it will be a welcome trade for them being at my new apartment on Thursday when the movers arrive to deliver my furniture so that I don’t have to be there.
