After what seemed like the longest and coldest spring in history....summer is finally upon us. So we passed the 2 minute window in which Pacific Northwesterners stop complaining about the cold and the rain and start complaining about the heat. People all over the US call us big fat babies for whining about the heat, but one must remember that the average NW household does not have air conditioning. Myself included. I, however, will not complain about the heat. Here is why:
1. I love it.
2. It never lasts long. Probably in about 2 weeks we'll be back down to 65 and overcast for a few more weeks.
3. I love it.
The only reason I don't like it is because I have to listen to everyone else complain about it. The same people who a week ago were complaining about how cold it was.
The other reason is my son. Anytime the temperature gets above 75 degrees he gets sick. Not like a cold sick, but throw up sick, headache sick, gonna pass out sick. This is partly because he doesn't drink enough water (any). I used to be the same way as a kid, until I grew up and thinned out my blood a little.
Sure, at 10:00 tonight when my bedroom feels like a sauna and the sweat is making me stick to my sheets, I may utter a word of hatred towards summer, but I won't mean it, I swear.

I totally did what Dylan did.Or didn'tI never drank enough water when it got hot and always got sick.Then I figured it out.Never again.It is going to be 99 here!! I am SO ready to get over there.It's nice once in a while but not three months of it.If I could have the sun without the heat,I wouldn't whine about it.(I'd find something else to whine about!Hheehhehehe)
