Go To Jail

Go directly to jail, do not pass go, do not collect $200.00!
The heat has been so oppressive and thick this summer, it feels like concrete walls holding us captive inside our house.
I keep trying to find ways to keep my girl and myself entertained in our little furnace.
Today we managed to fit in cookie baking (crazy I know) and a nice long game of Monopoly before wilting in the late-afternoon heat. My sweaty mind did have a difficult time keeping track of which piece belonged to me, since all pieces had to be on the board, even though they were not being played.
The houses, by the way, belong to the 6 year old! Future tycoon? probably, she certainly does not take no for an answer.
On an extremely high note, we were able to get tickets to see The New Pornographers in October!!! I can't tell you how excited I am. I LOVE them and the new album is without a doubt my favorite album this year.
Check them out!
