I hate heat

[Abby/Blood Offerings]

Okay, I know I'm not the only one who hates this weather. I enjoy 70. 70 is nice. 80 can go back down south where it came from and stay there.

[Sethron]

Hell yes. So very tired of this heat. DX And it all just absorbs its way into you, from every crevice. >X|

70 and up can go do rude things to itself. 65 is pushing it's damn luck. My little herb garden and tomatoes like it, though, which makes me grumpily accept 65. How far North must I go?

Wow..... really? 70? 80?

Luls... LULULUL. I should have brought back a shirt that said "I survived being outside with a hole in the ozone layer." You think this is hot?

But then again.. born and raised in Texas... 4 years in the outback... everything seems cool that isnt in the mid 90s and up....

TL;DR Version: Heat equivalent of 'in my day' response.

Trick part 1) drink plenty of water. You should be doing this regardless of the heat index.
Part 2) don't think about the heat. Think about the coldest place that you've been. Think of a vast blanket of snow and ice, of winds that bite through your warmest clothes.

This trick has allowed me to stay comfortable even while in formation on black pavement, under the Hawaiian summer sun, while wearing a black beret and a heavily starched uniform.

Alternatively, we all could get naked, walk around like that all day. Either way might work.

And it isn't hot yet. Summer has barely begun.

-.- zzzzz

I live in Seattle so I don't HAVE to deal with this. If I wanted heat I would live in California; if I wanted cold I'd live in Minnesota. Notice my total lack of living in either location!

Just because people CAN survive in stupid extremes doesn't mean _I'm_ going to do it voluntarily!

[Abby/Blood Offerings]

I know how to survive it. Doesn't mean I like it. As Juliana said, I like our mild seasons. I've been places where it is hotter, and hated it. So I'll be up here, hiding from extremes.

I'm just glad we're not on fire. There are a bunch of states that can't really say that at the moment. Silly Global Burning.

[Abby/Blood Offerings]

Yes, fire would suck. But I'm less likely to rant about that since it's not affecting me. If it gets closer to my Boopah over there in WY, then I will get bitchy about the fire.
