I check the weather forecast in Germany every day but it’s useless because I can no longer believe it can be under 30Β°C anywhere. It’s not real to me any more.

God, I hate this disgusting climate. Everybody is sweaty and stinky all the time, and I’m unusually sensitive to smell.

    So why don’t you just move to Arizona? It’s still 40 degrees Celsius here and will be until Halloween, but so bone dry that you couldn’t sweat if you tried. You wouldn’t even have to use a towel after you bathed — just step outside into the backyard, and your skin is dry in 15 seconds, and starting to tan in 20.

    If there’s a heaven on earth, it’s located between New Mexico and California.

      I hate the heat. I’m in great physical discomfort at any temperature higher than 18Β°C.

        In other words, “air conditioning for a man in a three piece suit” is Clarissa’s max temperature and if we see her in a hot yoga class, she is definitely a hostage.

        I’m sure you miss the climate of Quebec. :)) I could see you and N being very happy in Vancouver or Seattle.

        I miss having an actual fall. Fall here is just, “It’s still 85-90 degrees Farhenheit but it’s not so damn humid. Also the ladybugs collide with your windshield. Prep for hurricanes.” The beach had red tide two weeks ago and it still smells faintly of sewage.

        Dreidel, could you handle it if the A/C conked out?

          Hey, Montreal was at +45C until last week. It was horrible. Global warming doesn’t spare even Quebec. 😦

          • Same here. I’d move to Florida in a flash, though. I just love it, all drawbacks notwithstanding.
