Well it’s been another gross week of high temperatures, thunderstorms and migraines. Not that I’ve been exposed the heat part.

You can tell it’s summer in my house when there’s condensation dripping off the windows and warping the sill. People can bitch to me all they want about conserving energy, but if it gets over 79° Mama ain’t happy (more accurately, Mama’s asthma ain’t happy).

I have mentioned a few times that I hate water. HATE IT — with the passion of a thousand fiery suns. I have to toss it back like a grad-student just to get enough fluids in my body.
