Heat Wave

Damn it’s hot! I know most of you out there are too hot and wishing for cooler weather. You're sweaty and sticky. As soon as you're out of the shower you need to get back in. Blow drying your hair is out of the question. Make up is even worse. You are constantly wondering if you swell, as your deodorant melted off just shortly after you applied it. Your clothes stick to you and laundry piles up as a result. You can’t sleep. Your fan is just blowing hot air around. Turning on the oven is not an option. You seek shade but that doesn't doesn’t even cool you down. It’s muggier than hell and you’re spending a lot of time in a cold shower. You're hot, tired and cranky and yes, you’re complaining about this heat.

I say let’s put this all perspective. We live in a place known as the "wet coast" where grey skies and rain rule our world about eight months of the year. Ya I’m hot, sticky, and sweat is constantly dripping out of every pore of my body. BUT…I say let’s enjoy this hot sun while we get it. How can we complain about the sun and the heat when we're usually living under an umbrella? You can find me sans umbrella down at the beach soaking it up!

ahhh...another way to look at it...its a way to get an overdose of vitamin D. Put on those shades, enjoy the heat, because before you know it you'll all be saying "damn, i'm tired of all this rain"...
