Bloody Hot As Hell!!!

July 17th, 2010

Seriously, you have not seen me rant about this yet, at least not this year!  Bloody monkey balls of fire, not only is it HOT in the Valley, it is HUMID!  When the hell did we move to Houston??

To catch a glimpse of how hot it really is, Lil Boo can not stand it anymore.  Every morning when he wakes up, “Mommy it’s hot, I want to move, let’s move to where it snows.”   This is rather interesting….he has never been in snow…how does he know what snow is?  I suppose this holiday season the snow machine will have to make a special appearance!  Palm trees, cactus and a freaking snow machine, yes the Mrs. will just adore me!  Anyone have an extra bed or couch I can sleep on??

Then in the afternoon when I pick him up, it’s “Daddy, it’s to hot outside to play, I’ll watch a movie instead, alright!”  Now for the tie in, he has been watching holiday movies, that include SNOW!  Now that’s thinking smart!!  Watch cold weather and you’ll feel cooler! hmm is this why I drink ice cold adult beverages?? #smr baby!

Cabin Fever has over extended its stay with us.  I hear a much needed vacation in our future.  You know like one down to the South Pole with the penguins!

What is it you do during the summer to cool off?

Welcome to the YOB Years!  Where all you need is a BIG Hug!
