But Holy Christ on Crutches, you would think a tragedy was happening.

Last time I checked, there were no locusts ravaging the North East.    But Holy Christ on Crutches, you would think a tragedy was happening... because of the heat.  Really?  During every winter, there are complaints about the wind chill, cold and snow?  The same plan vacations to Mexico and the Carribean.  I have been there...this heat feels the same as it does today.  Granted it sucks because rather ordering rum/tequila drinks, there is a manuevering on the Mass Pike while going to work. Mother Nature cannot win (but she is more than welcome to come over to the Wangs for a drink.)

The heat has spiked in my neck of the woods.  Not a big deal for those who knew it was coming.  Apparently there were several who didn't know that summer followed spring.  People who are now whining that their air conditioning didn't work-home and car.  My favorite are those jack asses that claim that they never need air conditioning but just a fan.  Regardless, the same didn't look that rested this morning (while sleeping with the fan).

Personally I like the heat (over the cold).  I don't have to shovel the heat.  When it is hot, I don't worry that  I am going to slip on the pavement.  It is easier to dress my girls lightly and slather sunblock than bundle them up.

It's the weather, people..it happens. If you can't take the heat, then don't, freakin', sit next to me.   I don't want to see a section of the Wall Street Journal dedicated to dressing in layers.  I know it is going to be blistering hot outside while the air conditioning pumps inside.  I know how to dress appropriately.  Dedicating a section to a major newspaper just cow tows to those who whine about something so simple as the weather?  Apparently air conditioning air is new, compared to very warm air.

I feel insulted if the weather is initiated as part of the conversation.  Really...I am a smart woman.  Ask me about something just as benign but respectable like sports or economy.  If you ask me if "it's hot enough for me?"  Ab-so-freakin'-not. First of all,  I assume that I will be gracing hell so this heat is not a big deal.  BUT..my appetizer to hell?  That would be menopause.  This weather is just a hot flash to the weak.
