It’s a beautiful cool, gray, rainy day, the type of summer day I always liked as a kid because it meant I could stay curled up in my room and read all day.  The type of day we don’t get in Austin very often — the type of day I’ve really missed.

And best of all, we’ve broken our streak of hot weather!  The air conditioner actually shut off for a while today.  It’s the first day since late May under 90 degrees, and we’re supposed to stay like that for most of the week.
