Morning, HMF'ers. What y'all doing today?

We are going to my son's house to celebrate my daughter-in-law's bday around lunch time. :)

plans are simple: redo my Loglines and Book blurbs for Graveslinger. They're better than what they originally were, but I feel like they could still be better. That's the stuff that essentially sells the book, so the hook needs to be sharpened.

Opened the front door just out of curiosity, and it was like opening an oven on full blast.

Yeah, I don't remember San Antonio being *that* hot when I lived there, but I've read it's become like the 3rd largest city in the country now. Increased population does get a burst in temperatures. We're like generators :P

Daebodhisattva! Right when you guys starting coming back my hell week at work started, and that hell week turned into 2. But I'm over the hump for now, until the next round of layoffs, which will be fun too. But I'm alright, my man. Silver linings abound, one gold, and I try not to bitch about the state of affairs too much. How's life treatin you, my man?

Which model? I have the 660 Large Room model. And there are apparently two versions of that. Mine had 3 screws (that are pretty hidden).
