Besides the fact that the picture is bad (it was on my camera phone because I still haven’t bought a new camera ti replace my broken one).
Besides the fact that this was the weather a couple weeks ago.
Besides the fact that it’s 6:40PM and the outside temperature is triple digits.
Besides the fact that the outside temperature actually dropped 2 degrees in the time it took me to get the energy to get up and get my phone to take this picture.
No, what is really wrong with this picture is that my house has been closed up against the heat since 9AM with my (crappy) A/C running since early afternoon and the INDOOR temperature is 80.8 degrees.
Dude, that’s sucks.
Is it too early for me to start talking about moving to Barrow, AK? I think I need to win the lottery so I can have a summer home. I’m not picky…I’ll take either the green one (third row down) or, today, the fixer upper (fourth row). How cute would these neighbors be? I can’t even begin to tell you how good this looks right now.
Sigh…next time I complain about the heat remind me of this, please.
If you can’t find me I’m probably on a plane headed to the farthest North American City.
