Dull morning

I had a dream that I was at work moving steel pipe around. Just a mundane dream of my job; a job where I have narrowly avoided death, seen fights and accidents multiple times in the span of two months.

My dream ended when I woke up at exactly 6:59am because I had to pee. Our cats were sleeping peacefully in bed with my partner and I. Often times I wake up to a cat fight, a loud crash, an engine roaring down the street, a blast of Tejanos that sounds like circus music, or even just meows for treats.

It's the 4th of July here in Texas. The summer peak of excitement most years. The world cup, summer heat, and baseball are ramping people up for road rage and other acts of violence and belligerence. I haven't even heard a stray firework or firearm discharge.

I'll be 35 years old this month. I made Folger's coffee today. I started buying Folger's because it's cheaper per-cup than other brands while still being good. I find Folger's gets overlooked- or unfairly maligned as people often don't use enough grounds and end up with a weak cup of coffee.

Massive condensation issues in garage

I'm a renter in TX. This house has a condenser unit in the garage, and it's been 70-100% humidity outside after 10 days of rain.

Sometime after Friday the ducts in the garage going to the house started weeping moisture. I didn't catch it until yesterday.

The unit is still cooling, but the paint and drywall have exploded with fresh mold. I'm trying to figure out what is causing the condensation and where troubleshooting and a fix should start. My landlord is actually pretty great, but sometimes slow to respond. Would like to get a head start.

Details on the AC:

Filters changed monthly.

Return is under the con unit.

Ducts are insulated. New insulation coming from the unit, but old work going up into the ceiling.

-I've never cleaned the drain or coils, etc.

Drain seems to be working from the vent or clean-out stub to its wall drain by my washing machine.
