It’s 36C (97F) degrees right now.
I have no air conditioning.
I feel like I am standing at the gates of hell.
I hate to sweat. I detest sweat.
The dudes came today to clean the ducts and clean the furnace of its disgusting grime. They were supposed to be here Saturday, then canceled. Then, today, they were supposed to be here at 12:00 NOON. So I made arrangements to leave work early to be there (here) for them. At NOON.
I get a phone call at 11:00am that they are waiting in my driveway. *Apparently* wanted to get ahead start. Fuckers. Apparently they are the only ones who work.
Regardless, they came in, got it done.
I was all “YES! YES! YES! Air conditioning!” (tip: Make sure you read it like Sally says it in When Harry Met Sally, cuz that’s how I said it.)
But before I coud turn it on, Mike called and was all “No, not yet. I have to buy new air filters on my way home because those ones will be trash now, we don’t want this re-occurring mould issue, right?
I was all, “FUCK IT, I want my air dammit! You get to sit at work - IN AIR CON-fuckin’-DITIONING - and I’m here boiling my ass off. Not the weight loss plan I had in mind.”
He’s all: “Just wait ’til I get home.”
I was all: “Motherfucker, I’ll wait, but it ain’t gonna be pretty. And I expect Dairy Queen tonight.”
Here I am. Waiting. Patiently. Eagerly. Bitchy. as. hell.
Fuck, I hate to sweat.
Hence the extra 40lbs I’m carrying around on my big ass and inner-tube-like love handles. Yes, that’s right, I smuggle inner tubes under my shirt. Fucksakes. Stupid sweat.
If I was an R-rating before, that’s probably just been bumped. Motherfucker! (Just for good measure.)
Dick Simmons’ got nothing on me
ROFL! I hate to sweat too…….
before we got the new a/c for the dining room, I would just lay on the floor and cry because it was so hot…….
…..BTW? Crying when you sweat sucks even more than just sweating….I dont recommend it!

You are crackin’ me up I tell ya! Eek, humidity and heat… yuck.
Well, you could come to Arizona, you don’t sweat too much here (though we got the award for sweatiest city), because it’s an oh-so-pleasant DRY 115 degrees and the sweat never stands a chance of actually sticking (haha, get it?) around.
Did I mention our AC went off when I was 8.5 months pregnant in August of ‘03 (110+). I was thankful for being an apartment dweller at that moment in time because they were on that fixin’ it lickety-split!
I hope you get some relief soon!

Hopefully you will cool down soon!

I don’t have air.
I’m sitting here in shorts and the shortest tank I could find.
It’s not pretty. Trust me.

Humidity was 90% this morning. Temp got up to a reasonable 87 degrees.
But me? I’ve got A/C. Yeah, I’m a bitch.
BUT you can come down here and chill in my 65 degree place anytime!
When Harry Met Sally - one of my all-time FAVORITE movies.

LMBO…yes, that hot here too, but we are sort of used to it–still uncomfortable. And can you imagine the days before air conditioning in the home was common!!!
Hey Miss Construction Diva, why can’t you go get those filters LOL
