Although I still maintain that there have been entirely too many MyFace posts lately regarding the weather, I do declare that a record breaking day of 102 or 103 gives me license to talk about it. But I refuse to whine. Also apparently I am a southern belle. I have decided that, generally, we miss out when we focus on how much weather sucks. If you live in Portland, I give you full license to whine. They got up to at least 108, I hear. That is way too high. And if you live in a place where that kind of temperature is something you don't blink at, yes, I am calling you crazy. I don't care if it's a "dry heat." You are crazy to live in that kind of weather ON PURPOSE. With that said, I am, for the most part, enjoying our freakish weather. Here's why:
1. You have the perfect excuse to eat lots and lots of popsicles.
2. That great feeling you get when you drink a glass of cool weather and all the cells in your body seem to thank you in unison.
3. You lose your appetite and desire to cook things, and as a result your calorie intake falls.
4. Two words: Frozen. Grapes.
5. Sandals are fun to wear.
6. Air conditioning feels really good when it's this hot.
7. Swimming pools. Not that I've been in one. But I hear they are nice.
8. Mosquitoes don't like the heat, so less bites when I visit my favorite day camp in the world.

Amen to all of the above. Especially the last two on the top 10 list. -K
I was thinking this has been a great diet too. All my cravings are gone. Maybe when I need to lose weight, I should just crank up the heat in the house. I should write a book.
