Angry This Heat is UNbelievable!

It's fantastic in my part of the country... low 80s, little humidity, nice breeze. We suffered the hot crap last week. I hate hot weather, I hate summer... and I read in a magazine that you can get Seasonal Affective Disorder in summer... I think I may have it. if fall and winter could hurry up, I'd be much happier.

*GASP* I never knew anyone else who felt that way but me! Summer in the friggin' valley that is Ohio sucks. It's too hot to even GO OUT from noon to six! It's like winter only you feel guilty for not going outdoors to "enjoy" the weather.

Me three. September to December is my season. June's okay too. But screw this sweating business.

Bullhead City, AZ. Where I went to high school.
Consistantly records hottest place in Arizona (along with Havasu).

High school ditch day involved foil, frozen pizzas, big coolers filled with icy refreshments and the Colorado River, which varies 5 degrees from 52.

125+ temps plus 52 degree water plus instant immersion = shock

The pizza was good tho.

I recall the thermometer on my porch getting stuck at 126 one day. Broke the thermometer.

Broiled or Braised, you're still cooked.

93,000,000 miles away and it's still uncomfortably warm ...

77°F, 47% humidity.

When, oh when, will winter finally arrive?

In New York in the summer it's 98 degrees and in California it's 76.
In New York in the winter it's 38 degrees and in California it's 76.
In New York there are 6 million hard working people and in California there are 76.
