1. Just give up and walk around with a towel draped on your shoulders like a gym rat.
Ughmuggyweathersucks.

Our heat wave is over but the air smells like smoke.

5. No, unless we stop cooking...hehe
I'm going to call maintenance in the morning. Blaaaah. It's ok in the bedroom, where the fans are. The livingroom in brutal though.

And, apparently it's going to rain/storm everywhere in the Boston area except here. :wtf:

12. that used to be the Saturday night special at my house.
and i really hate baked beans, i used to spit them into my napkin but of course my mother caught on, then i tried to feed them to the dog under the table and then she caught on made the dog stay on the porch. The only baked bean i ever would eat were made by Nana, she had a heavy hand with the salt pork and bbq sauce.

7. Ugh, I've been there.
Can you get some cheap floor fan somewhere? Mine was like $20 and it saved my ass last time my a/c didn't work.

8. Weather is disgusting
here too. It is just so humid, the air seems really unhealthy and if the sun comes out it will feel like 120 degrees, I'm sure. ;(
