Ice
fucking
cold shower this morning.
Really more of a dash, scream, heat up pots of water on stove, wash hair under faucet, dash, scream, swear, soap, dash, scream, swear, pour warm water over head, swear, dash, scream, swear....
I know I'm clean, I just don't feel like it.
I should only have one first world misery to deal with at a time. Heatwave and burdened a/c, intermittent water or no hot water. Not all three.
Oh and I have jury duty tomorrow!
Happy Anniversary Joe & Aimee!
{{{{sara}}}} Is your area due for a break in the heat the way we are up here (alas, not until tomorrow, and I suspiciously note how tomorrow's high temprature keeps creeping up in the forecast)?
Oh and I have jury duty tomorrow!
Well, surely the courthouse will be air conditioned, anyway. I hope. Yeah, I guess that does fall into the "small consolation" category.

I don't know for sure that it's not but it is a notoriously old and falling apart building. I've only had jury duty in the winter, though, and the heat worked fine.
What lisah said. I've been there early spring and it varied from warm and mildewy smelling to ice cold.
My work has a/c. And I don't have to be here at 8:15 am.
Tomorrow is supposed to be a little cooler, but still in the ridiculously hot category.
poor sara! I hope it's normal cool at the courthouse and also that there's no business going on there so you can hang out and read and go home early without getting put on a jury.
My boss went out and bought several free standing air conditioners yesterday to cool down our stupid office. It sort of worked for a while. But I'm working at home today. And drinking a boatload of delicious iced coffee. And eating lots of lime and mango popsicles!
Okay people, place your bets now!
Fidel Castro: dead, or not?
My vote is dead, but in an effort to dispel rumors, his brother will stage an elaborate Weekend At Fidel's scenario. Wackiness will ensue.
Somewhere in Dick Cheney's basement laboratory there are the reanimated corpses of Castro and Ken Lay. I'm not sure exactly what the plan is, but I think it involves the Ice Capades.
