[m i a o w] the cat

It’s getting hotter. I’ve been at my desk with a mosquito coil burning near my feet in an effort to stop being chomped alive by sandflies and the like. I have to duck every 15 minutes or so when mud - dauber wasps fly in the window looking for somewhere to set up house. If this is still Spring, I am dreading what Summer is going to bring. I already have to wake up and have a cold shower each morning to be able to function. The other thing is, our water tank is getting low - what with trying to keep the garden looking peachy and convincing the grass seed to do its thing, I have again started showering with trepidation.

My Nanowrimo is not going too badly - I am a little behind on my average of 1800 words a day, and am currently sitting on 4786 words. Tonights goal is to hit 7200. Yike. I shall persevere.
