Back to the grind, I suppose. Today was a bit cooler than yesterday, 87F vs 90F. With this latest round of storms that came through tonight, the temps dropped to a very manageable 70F. Off again with the a/c, and throw open the windows for some fresh air. Now I just hope that if it rains again tonight, I'll wake up and get the windows closed before the rain comes inside.

Update on the bats. Before the storm hit tonight, I went outside to sweep away the bat droppings, and while I was out there, using my flashlight, I checked to see if they were still there. To my surprise, they were no where to be found. With bats being nocturnal mammals, they should have been sleeping, since the sun wasn't going to set for another 90 minutes. I also learned that bats usually have colonies that can be in the hundreds or thousands. So that got me wondering if there were more bats around that I didn't know about. I checked all along the balcony above me, from one end to the other, no bats tonight. I'll keep any eye out for them. I know they've been regular residents based on the bat droppings.

Tomorrow is hump day already, nice to have short weeks, eh!
