I heard people are fainting at Disneyland.

I stay in the office all day. Pee on the heat.

I WISH that we had a/c at work. Nope... we sit here, baking, and soaking, in high heats, and 80+ % humidity. I HATE IT!!

No a/c at your office? Damn.

The chicks in my department crank the temp way down. It has to be 70 in here.

And I'm drinking a frosty bottle of water. Yup, this is the life.

It really sucks here, Heck. Unless I happen to go over to my mom's, I don't have a/c... unless you count a short jaunt in the car. It's not enough.

I was there a few weeks ago and as much as my girlfriend cursed the weather, I was not mad. You got to understand it's 10-20 degrees cooler to me.

But yeah, I stay in the office all day. I had to go get lunch for the office earlier this week and was sweating bullets instantly. Luckily I have this parking space that gets shade in the afternoon so the car isn't too bad when I get in it. Usually it's like a punch in the face when I open the door. It was so bad over the weekend I couldn't touch the steering wheel all the way to the store. I drove with my legs, it's only about 5 minutes away though. Still. That was the only time I left the house that day. Didn't even want to go outside to smoke.

Luckily, I get to work early enough, that I get to park under a HUGE tree. I have full shade, the entire day, and my car isn't hot after I leave the office. That makes the a/c kick in really fast, and make my car cold as hell.

My a/c gets going pretty quick too when the car has a little shade. I crank that bad boy.

I should get a window cover and all that. But I'd rather complain about it

Just used a C to F converter. It's 98 here today, but the A/C inside is so awesome.

Hottest day I ever experienced was back in Australia. 107. I think I passed out that day; I don't remember.
