This heat SUCKS
I know it's a pointless rant, but it really sucks coming in to work and my shirt is soaking wet and sticking to me. Kiss my ass, summer!!!

5. Same here in NY
and I thought Philly was usually just a bit hotter than we are. :shrug: Luckily, my landlord replaced my broken bedroom air conditioner on Wednesday. I am VERY grateful (although he was a bit pissy about it, as usual).

9. I'm in an apartment complex, and my air conditioner is ancient
It's not what you would call energy efficient

18. Humidity Won't Stop
I work in the mountains of east San Diego County, & every day the humidity is so oppressive. There are tropical storms that just keep staying over the area. It is affecting my work, so I cannot wait until it is all over. Ugh!
