...and I plan on living here during the heat of summer. I've got a laptop, I'm allowed to bring my water bottle inside (and even coffee, should I feel inclined to purchase it from the coffee shop on the ground floor level). They have wi-fi. What else do I need?
Wait.
Better hours.To be fair, the Central Library has better hours than most of the other ones, but it still closes tonight at 5 p.m., and it isn't open tomorrow (tragedy!). I would like to be able to stay here until the need for food drives me out to hunt the hot streets of downtown Minneapolis, but no. They will kick me out at a "civilized" hour, and then I will melt.
Also, what shall I do with myself tomorrow? I guess if all else fails I'll hunker down in the basement with my laptop and my writing, but--basically, I'm pretty much fair game for *any* inexpensive plan that will keep me out of the heat this weekend. I don't much feel like going to a bar, but that might end up being the thing tonight, I guess....
Yesterday, I ended up hanging out with a fair number of people in the air-conditioned comfort of
malcubed and
chesh's apartment, playing with my laptop, chatting to people, and playing a little bit of penta-go, a game that I am horrible at. That was nice. And air-conditioned.
