Hot as hell....

I already took one bath today, and I feel like I need another already.
I had some unexpected banking business to take care of -- transferring money to the checking/debit account, otherwise I might have lost my 'Net access for want of a payment; I haven't been able to put anything into that account recently -- so I nicked out this morning to take care of that. Plus, I managed to get my "Constantine" DVD; I haven't watched it yet: I had to work this afternoon, and I've gotten pretty wrapped up reading HP 6:
Chapter of HP 6 I'm on: Just started Chapter Twenty -- I have to admit, this book seems tighter-written than the previous volumes: It's almost as if JKR is speeding up as she's getting closer to the climax. I'm not sure what to make of Slughorn after the upset in his office.... The teen snoogy-oogy nonsense between Ron and Lavender seems a little foolish, but then again, my opinion of teenage snoogy-oogy nonsense has always been unfavorable; plus, I think the reconciliation between Ron and Hermione, post-upset in Slughorn's office, was a little forced. Just my opinion, of course, but other than that, I gotta admit, I'm having a harder time putting this book down than I did the other ones!
Extremely quiet at work: You'd think that everyone would be coming in to do their shopping and enjoy the nicerefrigerationair-conditioning. Nope, hardly anyone in the store. I mostly put away overstock and straightened out aisles.
You know the Houseparty is feeling the heat when...
--Ref isn't running research on art sales/rare book sales in the area; she spent much of the afternoon resting to beat the heat. The heat didn't seem to bother Blaise, maybe since he's used to being in a 98.6 degree environment.
--Flood wears a short-sleeved shirt and sheds his vest; I wish he'd do that more often: he's got nice arms. Thin, but nice...
--Enzo the anthropomorphic hyena isn't playing pranks on people; instead, he found a shady spot under the trees and took a snooze.
--The Merv isn't hitting on everything that moves and looks remotely humanoid; the King of the Exiles cancelled his appointments for the day and parked himself under the cold water tap in the bathtub. I'm told Constantine wasn't too thrilled to find him there, when he came back from a job, covered in demon blood and in dire need of a bath.
Edited to add: I've been corrected by the demon hunter, re: the title of this entry. Says Constantine, "It may be hot, but it ain't nowhere near as hot as hell. I oughta know..."
