Ok, I give. I am begging for mercy. It is a record 36.5 degrees in the bedroom. Just coming up the stairs had me soaked with sweat. There is nowhere in the house that is comfortable. I couldn't sit out in the backyard tonight because the mosquitoes were out in full force. The heat has me so tired I can barely think, this constant nagging headache that cannot be relieved - I can't take it, I tell you. I'd cry right now except that I fear dehydration. I am also extremely worried about my wee furry beasties. They don't feel like eating either. Poor things. I just checked the forecast. 5-day tells me that this isn't going to end anytime soon. I'm thinking of moving in with Dad for the rest of the summer. (except there is no room there - unless I share my sister's quarters.... hmmm...) God, have mercy on us! With cooling centres that are open until 7pm and another downtown - trekking down there for the night, then trekking back for a shower in the morning for work.....and then going to work - really doesn't make much sense, now, does it? Since it's too hot to sleep, I'm going to go and roll around in my own sweat until morning. Ask me why we're being martyrs - likely because my brain is too cooked to figure out how to convince my husband to get me A/C.
