Holy mother...it is Vietnam rice-paddy humid here
I fully expect to see oxen going past my window any minute now...:crazy:

Who decided that air and water was a good combination?? I'd like to have a word with them...:grr:

Anyone else suffering tonight?

2. It's like soup in New Jersey too
I find myself longing for the South West. It may be hot there but at least it is dry.

3. it's pretty bad here in Pittsburgh
although it rained and cooled off a little. we went to the pool today before it rained, and that helped some. I always think of my town as having a little bit of monsoon in the summer.

:hi:

7. God it's unbearable,
isn't it?? And I'm INSIDE, with the A/C on! Although it's set on like 77, but still...you'd think it'd cut through at least SOME of this muck, but noooooo...

As for the nekkid thing, that is much more easily accomplished when you don't have children running around the house. I couldn't scar them for life like that. :D

8. I know, the AC
isn't helping very much.

It still feels rather warm in here. I may lower the thermostat to sleep.

9. Don't forget to leave your curtains open, so all the
Forrest animals can commune with you. :D

10. But it does lack the charm of random mortar attacks and
trying to stay quiet when walking through chest-deep water and elephant grass three times your height.
