Temperatures over 100 should be illegal. Actually, I’m not fond of anything over 90, but when it’s not humid, I can deal. Still, I’m not a fan of summer because:
- I don’t like to sweat without exertion to earn it. It gives me acne breakouts that make me look even more like a twelve-year-old than I generally do.
- I become lethargic.
- The dogs become even more lethargic than I do.
- Ever since having LASIK six years ago, I’m very sensitive to bright light.
- The bugs from outside try to come inside. I hate bugs.
- Since I’m long past school days, those long summer evenings just mean I don’t want to ease into my evening routine. I stay up too late, and then I don’t function well in the morning.
- I am constantly reminded how near the beach we don’t live. I miss the ocean. The shark toy in the pool doesn’t help.
On the other hand, summer does bring my birthday and Shark Week, though not in that order.
“Temperatures over 100 should be illegal.”
You an I both… I lived in Texas for 16 years and the summer’s there were unbearable…. With dew point at 60+ along with temperatures 100-110 C… You’d think you were in hell.
God I hate it…. Speaking of God, Thank God for the AC!
