Good evening! Cloudy, muggy and 73 degrees in Delmar, NY. β There is a south breeze at 13 mph. π. The dew point is 66 degrees. The skies will clear Saturday around 11 am.
A fairly quiet day, I got my remaining camping gear put away, π±and spend a lot of time vacuuming up sand π£I managed to track everywhere from working Wednesday at the beach π and running back to my truck π when I needed run reports or export something from Excel.
It was kind of a hot and sticky day, β¨ not oppressive but you definitely felt the sop when you moved around and burned some calories. The long hair πwas particularly gross in the heat and humidity despite washing it in the morning and trimming my sideburns and goatee down to a reasonable length.
I went down to the library for a while this afternoon and worked down there π». I was having trouble with the internet but ultimately I moved closer to the library and swapped to a different version of the kernel driver which seemed to improve the Wi-Fi reception. πΆ The Wi-Fi has been always kind of problem with this laptop as the Linux driver has always been a bit buggy.
I went for my evening walk πΆ and eat the remaining pasta π² I made for lunch. Caught up on the YouTube videos πΉ that I downloaded earlier in the day. I haven’t followed the usual YouTube stuff as closely as I’d rather sit out back then watching videos. Plus in the spring, how many hours of video do you really want to watch of people hauling manure. π© A lot of that in spring time on the YouTube. I also was having issues with my YouTube download script I had to fix.
