I felt the same way about the spring thread, too. I totally had to do some cognitive "living in the moment" exercises starting around March to avoid working myself into a lather of utter dread about this summer.

tbf the worst part about the summer is not the heat but the mosquitos it brings

乒乓, Friday, 19 July 2013 03:40 (twelve years ago)

no

also, there is no correlation

Found out this week that those people in whites in the training centre canteen kitchen are wearing them over the blue uniform the rest of the staff are wearing. Those already look none the coolest, & it's hot enough without a uniform. &hotter still in a kitchen.
Well, glad it aint me

I don't like summer, but the worst part of summer for me is not the heat, but people walking around going "fffffffwwwwwwwwwwwwooorrrr!!! isn't it hot today!!!" because I know it's hot but I'm trying to mentally block it out.

I need a moisture-wicking "lady" bra. Like, not a squashing sports bra, but a normal bra, made out of weird mesh material. Maybe with some cooling gel packs and a fan inbuilt.

the sun is dumb

why is the sun so dumb

and the air, it's dumber than the sun

Great thing about hot hot summer heat: Sitting in cold, dark bars and day drinking.

This summer has been so sweet for Arkansas. Ive only felt physical violated by humidity maybe twice. Its usually countless times by now.

Dont get me wrong, were still running AC pretty high plus all ceiling fans but I dont feel like I need a shower as soon as I get out of the shower and even outdoors I can BREATHE

picked up a vacuum cleaner from craigslist. 7 blocks. figured 8.30 would be ok to beat the heat. lol nope. second shower of the day.

Did I ever tell you about the time that I lived in a Columbia attic apartment with no air conditioning? Setting box fans domino-style on the stairs to blow air from the living room didn't work.

Many of you saw me angry about this on twitter/FB but I found a kitten in front of my house today, left in a box on the sunny sidewalk in this heat. Monsters!

FFM, if I were driving distance I would be strongly lobbying Jeff to let us come get that kitten because it is ADORABLE and it would match Francie.

Lawyer... SUAVE... (carl agatha), Friday, 19 July 2013 19:58 (twelve years ago)

I will try to snap chat the little thing later :) Wish she could chill with Francie too! Hope I can find a home for her before my sister falls completely in love, neither of us have vet money really!

she started dancing to that (Finefinemusic), Friday, 19 July 2013 19:59 (twelve years ago)

man I want to get home now just to check in on the cats, force them to drink water, etc.

chinavision!, Friday, 19 July 2013 20:02 (twelve years ago)

I stopped worrying about leaving Francie at home on hot days when I found her napping directly against the back sliding glass door, behind the curtain where there was no air circulating, fully in the sun on a 90-something degree day when the AC was going in the living room. She's a black cat, too, so she was hot to the touch, the dummy. Anyway, we keep the blinds down (except for a one for Francie to peek out of) and the ceiling fans going and only one part of our apartment gets direct sunlight so it is reasonably cool during the day.

Benson is awful in the heat so I leave the air on for him. I'm worried about the power going out while I'm at work and me not knowing it and him roasting. :(

Just biked home in 93 F heat with probably a 10 mph headwind, with this elevation change: http://cyclemeter.com/7cd034d14c9b8c48/Cycle-20130719-1546?r=e . I probably lost 5 lbs on this ride.

It's 97 here and we moved into our house 3 days ago. We have one window AC that we keep moving from room to room but actually doing any unpacking/installing is more or less impossible.

Chantal Anchorman (admrl), Friday, 19 July 2013 21:18 (twelve years ago)

The AC was causing the window next to it to rattle annoyingly so we went to raise and lower that adjacent window and all of a sudden the fucking sash came out of the frame altogether. So yeah. At least the living room is well ventilated now.
