Superfry

It's supposed to get to 95 today.

Ninety-freaking-five. 

All y'all in warmer locales are laughing. Don't. There's no such thing as AC in most homes here. 

Except mine. Best damned investment I ever made. Well, OK, so the degree was good, too, but the AC is a close second. 

Pardon me while I hole up chez fou in chilly, global-warming-contributing bliss.

Superfry, part deux

OK, to give you an idea...

Current temp for my zip code right now is 96F, according to weather.com. This breaks the all-time record for this date by 11 degrees. It breaks the all-time record for July by three degrees. And it is just two degrees cooler than the all-time record, period, which was set in 1955. It is also about 20 degrees warmer than our average highs for the entire summer.

Oh, and the humidity? Is about 25%. This is not the dry, baking heat of the Southwest, in which one can sweat to cool off. This is more like being in Florida. Only without the pools and AC everywhere.

I'm not leaving the house today. Especially not since my car has been sitting in the driveway (since there's apartment stuff blocking my parking space in the garage.) Even with the AC, it's still warmish in here just from the sun coming through the windows.

Ugh.
