Whining About the Heat
Jun. 24th, 2009 05:02 pmI don't like the cold, but 103 in June is a bit much. If you're thinking, yeah, yeah, whatever, it's not like you're in Houston with 90% humidity, you're right. But if you're thinking it was probably that hot for just for a few minutes, and at night it cools off and I can open all my windows, turn on the fans, and get cool: last night's low was 82. That's right, it never dropped below 80 degrees.
The other day, the breeze was so hot it didn't even feel good. It felt more like bus exhaust than a refreshing breeze--yeah, air is rushing by, but no thanks, I'm not really interested in that particular air.
Basically, it's generally uncomfortably hot or dark or both, except when it's deathly hot. When, exactly, am I supposed to go jogging? At least there's a lot of shade in the early morning and late evenings.
I like it being too hot for a little while; it helps me appreciate autumn. But having crazy heat for the entire month of August, like we usually have, is really plenty. That totally works for me, even though I used to dread fall because it meant winter was all too near. Three months of crazy heat? Arg!
