Summer has struck the 'No with a vengeance. It was hotter than hell yesterday (109 or something) and it was 107 today. The heat made Patrick sick so I stayed home with him. But we didn't do much because my house gets to 82 and won't get any cooler. Ugh. It was 96 at 11:00 last night.
You're probably wondering why I don't move from hell on Earth to cooler climates. Mostly it's because I'm lazy. And scared to pick up and go some where that I will be alone. My family is here. My friends are here. My life is here. Here just happens to be one of the hottest places in California. And it sucks ass when it's this hot. The air is kind of a tan color from the smog and you can forget seeing the foothills. It's just too hot to do much of anything.
So I'm sitting on my couch, under my ceiling fan, like a slug. I actually napped today. I realize I chose to live here and I have to accept that it's Africa hot in the summer. But I still have my God-given right to complain about it.
I will try to finish a worth-while post later. Right now, the boyfriend is on his way over and I'm looking forward to seeing him. Have a good night and for those who live in the heat, try to stay cool. And a last note: Katy, be glad you left when you did. Because this sucks monkey nuts.
I used the heat in my car one morning this week.
