You're Kidding, Right?

Today is Saturday, August 19. 2023. It's 7:48 in the morning. Outside it's 54 degrees.  Inside, my furnace just kicked on.

Are you kidding me? I can't remember my furnace ever, ever being on in August. I don't think it's even happened in September. Typically, May to September, nothing. Rarely in April even.

It took me a few minutes to identify that odd sound. I honestly didn't realize what it was. Then I sat down my breakfast bowl and went to stand on a heater grating, to feel the warm air.

I suppose I could have turned down the thermostat for summer. But I never had to do that before. And, truth be told, it actually feels nice. 

Still, the furnace on, in August. Just. Plain. Weird.
