Oh well. I must have dreamed two years of french in hs and two terms in college. I can't have done it, I don't know the cartoons.
Now are you oh so worldly ones done trying to point out my cultural ineptitude, or is Dudley Do-right on? I want to learn more about (aboot, I think?) Canadian culture. |

Fair enough Pico. I haven't taken it lightly. I've also expressed my opinions and hope that Jill will not leave.
Ultimately it's her choice though. Most of us have had to deal with one or more posters giving us a hard time at some stage or another. I guess we all just have to live and learn and decide what's best for ourselves in the end. No hard feelings.

It's #@$%%& HOT and humid out there today. After nearly six weeks of straight rain, the heat comes to scorch not only my groove but my ass, too.
Can't do nothin' out there. It's totally ridiculous. That's why the cost of living is so reasonable here.

I had a vacation day, and was running around town getting things done. As soon as I put the lid down on my car, Sheryl Crow is on the radio singing "I Want to Soak Up the Sun" and it was AWESOME. Cruise here, cruise there, wind in my hair, sun on my face, singing... I pulled up to get a car wash (too hot to do by hand as I had jeans on) but I almost passed out and died trying to get the automatic bill thingy to take my last two dollars. They were nice crispy dollars too. Sweat pouring down my face (I'd already prepared and had the lid back up) and back. Just from a couple minutes. So I finally got my dollars to work, cranked up the A/C, got my car washed, then left. I didn't put the lid back down because I needed it to dry. Needless to say, the rest of my errands were run with the lid up. You're right: from crazy freaking snow to crazy freaking rain to crazy freaking 85 temps with 5 billion percent humidity. And I'm down an A/C in my bedroom, completely broken, and the kitchen one isn't sounding too healthy. So I was glad to see your post and know I'm not the only one.

Used to be that this type of weather was what I nearly died waiting for. I couldn't wait for it to get hot. Now all I want is for it to be nice enough so that I can keep the windows open in my house. Warm with refreshing breezes.
Huh. |

Yeah, when I was in HS/College it didn't bother me at all. And we NEVER had any kind of A/C in our house back then.
Of course, after a long day in the fields there was always the city pool, or even the slip and slide in the backyard. |

Definitely keep your chin up V. Before you know it, okay, maybe a little longer, you'll be back in the game!
Now what's scorching my skinny white ass us that, ironically V, my new job. Not my job per se but the dude that has my tools from when the disaster happened. My fishing gear too. Been trying to get it back for a year now on and off and now i NEED my tools and the sob won't answer my calls. Now he just sends them to vm. ffs. And to boot auto correct can kiss my lilly white ass too! You spell out a word such as "is ". It gives you "us". Ffs if i type the damn word make that the word i typed. Damn I'm bitchy. Either I'm tired as all get out (most likely) or I'm going through male pms. Prolly both.
