Just one quick bitch, part two

[Lestat]

Grr....the cylinder on my revolver keeps fucking sticking in one particular place. I've been filing out tiny nicks in it but haven't got the guilty one out yet, whichever it is.

And too fucking hot (although my possibly aspie, and very, very tasty next door neignbor is out in a rather nice outfit  xD )

I havent a bitch

to complain about

[lutra]

Frikkin' hot it is here. And damp. Wish I had a little swimming pool in my garden now.

I don't have time to learn Latin when repairing the roof

You didn't even practice any nice Latin curse words while working? 

[TheoK]

 

No.

HOT 95F(35C) and humid  I worked outside today it was miserable

[Lestat]

The weather here is pretty 'stercus'

Similar to what Parts has been in, I've been slowly broiling all day. Fed up of it.
The only good thing about this heatwave, is that opium poppy plants should receive only the bare minimum of water whilst pods form, even then, only enough to keep the plants alive and healthy, as this concentrates the goodness within. This years crop has thus far been fantastic in terms of potency. A good year, methinks, to take it a few steps further than simply brewing up the awful-tasting and worse-stinking tea (of which, nevertheless, a pot is brewing on the stove top right this very moment )

My plants have got almost no water at all since the pods started forming properly, and should produce a decent yield of dipropionylmorphine once all is said and done. *I* on the other hand, have had enough of it. More than enough. I really do not like it too hot, more than once recently I've started feeling pretty faint and lightheaded. Feels hotter even than when I went on holiday to turkey in the summertime.

This weather fucking stinks.

And its hot enough that all my THF evaporated through the walls of the bottle. I need to get it supplied in metal cans, or amber glass bottles in future. Fucked off about that. Lost a fair bit of toluene and benzene also

Thumb nail even looser I will have to start taping it soon

[odeon]

Bloody allergies.

I actually like the heat to a certain degree. It could be cooler now, when we are working on the roof, but when I don't have to work and can be in the shadow, I like hot weather. Most of the year it's cold and snowy here.

I also have problems with plastic cans and chemicals

Can't go thrift shopping today.
Must deal with boy and his girlfriend and her mother.

  for good luck

I am still waiting on a check I was supposed to get two days ago but have been getting the run around

[Lestat]

I've been contemplating buying a small fridge to keep my volatiles in, things like bottles of ether, dioxane, THF, benzene, dichlor/chloroform/carbon tet, etc.

And one that poses an especial problem, is carbon disulfide, as it is both volatile, pretty toxic, and is so bloody flammable, that all one has to do to ignite it, is hold a glass rod in some hot water, and then hold that now warmed rod over the CS2..up it goes in flames.

And another worry, is lecture bottles of gases. If something like a cylinder of phosgene or chlorine gas overheated and blew its top, that would be a potentially lethal disaster. ATM I keep anything like that in the coolest, most shaded part of the deepest cupboards in the lab. But keeping them in a fridge, inside plastic containers to exclude moisture would be perfect. I just don't want to take the chance of releasing a big buggering great plume of something heinously toxic.

And I can't AFFORD to have my solvents just evaporate away into the air, and piss my money down the drain in the process.
