You know the day is a heat-slogged washout when....

You spend half an hour downloading Star Trek computer and communicator noises to Trek-pimp out your computer.

Yips! from Robbo:

"Tea. Earl Grey......HOT!"

Way ahead of you, compadre. I tricked, er, "Trekked" out my computer a couple years back. Although I'm a TOS partisan in most things, I went with TNG effects because they were cleaner. Not only that, I saved a master disk of them to have a clean set for every time I switched computers and/or jobs.

Another sign of the day: Instead of walking due west to my Metro stop, I'll be tacking back and forth in order to stay in the shade as much as possible on the way there.

I'm surprised y'all aren't live blogging from the Trek Auction?

I had TNG sounds going on my home computer for a long time - and then I got tired of having Worf announce mail arrivals and switched them to something more mundane.

something more mundane, like Scotty?
