i’m so over this weather. yesterday it got up to 44°C (111°F) and last night at midnight it was still that hot. i think mother nature has made her point now and can put the sun away for a while. it’s making me very grouchy and the brit is running out of magic tricks to humour me. i was contemplating wrapping myself in a cold wet sheet and standing in front of the fan for a while. i told the brit my idea to show him my desparation and the only thing he could say was “will you be naked under the sheet?”. I don’t think he cares about my plight. the heat doesn’t bother him at all which bothers me because i feel like i’m being a big loser. i saw the first sigh of heat frustration from him though – we opened the window and a nice breeze came through the house and he said oh so quietly “oh thank god!” ha! i’m glad i do not suffer alone. misery does love company. (but now that i think about it, maybe he said “oh thank god” thinking it will cool down for me and i can stop my whining… nah!)
it’s the start of my birthday weekend! i sent out meeting reminders to some people telling them to buy me pressies. one of my colleagues actually declined my request. how cheeky. i followed it up with hate email. i have no idea why i’m so excited for my birthday this year – i usually go into hiding and watch “sixteen candles” and cry about how i’ll never be that young again. This year i’m looking forward to it. it’s been a good year and i want to celebrate.
hope you all have a good weekend too!
Happy early bday! I hope the brit gets you something good! You deserve it!
