too effing hot

i don't like this weather

but i like how it looks

but not how it feels. eww can you imagine going to a wedding today? i really don't understand how my friend's wedding is on july 27. she better blast some air fucking conditioning.

xpost national grid already added a charge to our bill for some kind of auto reader thing...

slocki u shld go stand in the field behind jeans jeans jeans - a friend of mine + others were out there cleaning up and planting things today and also all the tall grass is blowing in the wind and it'll all prob be gone to development soon :( it is one of my favourite places

this has been a good day for vitamin D

colder than normal/cloudy/rainy here in Western Oregon. I bet it's scorching on the other side of the mountains though.

x-post -- That is a lovely comment! :-) Vitamin health!

i'm not pleased

not at all

ok who has a/c advice? can you put a window unit in a wall space? i know the intake on the sides thing fucks it up but i can not afford a $500 wall space unit.

thank god i have central air!!

bitch

=P

i can't even call in sick this week -- what am i gonna do sit and sweat? it's not even summer yet!

at least the office is cold.

<3 hott weather

a/c in house is broken >_<

"humidity is the worst. esp if you smoke."

-- stevienixed

I don't really get this.^^^

totally get this:

"it's not even the heat that's killing me now but the act that the humidity is making the air so incredibly thick it feels like i'm in a fog."

Albeit smoking is secondary to breathing, for once in my GD life.

cigarettes are kind of gross in the summer

it's just, the air is thick enough with heat. let alone smoke

I guess I never thought of smoking as a seasonal thing. It's more of a committment for me.

I got two free fans today.

Hopefully they will like my poetry.

The one that I have been using needs a dime to turn the little plastic thingy that controls speed.
It's like a depression era fan - but once you get it going it's like the New Deal of wind.

high of 97 today. Heat in NYC sucks.

scorcher

yeah it was already 80 when I woke up this am

attack of the ants in my house last night, and all because of one lousy drop of lemonade in a glass left on the side. There were hundreds of em, and I rarely get any at all in my house.

It's almost worth driving out to my current assignment in Reston, to be able to work in an air-conditioned office.

awwwwfffffullllllllllllllllllllllll

i helped a friend move in the 90+ yesterday omg

wow

then we drank margaritas then i passed out for hours

did she buy?

that cooler than average section of mookieproofs map misses me by a county :(

we bought a two story house this year which has two seperate AC units - one for each floor. That top floor ac fights and fights but it never ever gets below 80F and its humid as hell even though we have a central dehumidifier turned to dry like a desert.

did she buy?

oh yes

I've already heard of blackouts in NY during the storms yesterday. I live in Queens. If we get a repeat of 2 summers ago I'm going postal.

said fuckit and installed AC in the bedroom... it's a new life.

i spent all of yesterday in my ac'd bedroom aside from like 2 hours

AC banned in our building, and not even installed in this room. So i have this fan on my desk which although does cool me down just tends to blow my paperwork all over the shop. and sounds like a wwii bomber.

Need swamp cooler directions STAT. House-sitting this week in a basement apt which is a little cooler but will be home next wkend and will be dying.

Ste - what part of the country do you live in? I would be forced to move to a new building.

Chicago has the worst weather all year round. Fuck you, Chicago weather. Fuck you.

i'm in UK, in nw

It's an environment issue, I think.

Is it your work or home building?

Does UK have a lot of A/C? In my imagination it doesn't really exist there, except at grocery stores and high-rises.

I don't even know... oh, air-conditioning... not that much call for it for most of the year

It's only occasionally too hot (and not at all last year, if I remember correctly) or too cold

True but I was living there in 2003 when there was a heatwave during the summer and nearly died. It was so horrible. Apt, tube, shops, pubs etc. all not air conditioned. I've never looked forward to going to work as much as I did during that heatwave - I think I even stayed late to keep cool.

A friend from Seattle moved to North Carolina with her car, which like many in the Pacific Northwest, did not come equipped with air conditioning. The Horror.

xp- trains without a/c would be a fucking nightmare. It's only 70 out and I have our office a/c on. Yummy.

x- post On the other hand when we visited last July/August I had to go buy long sleeved tops as it was chilly.

We stayed indoors all weekend until I got stir-crazy last night and braved it once the sun had gone down. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.
