I woke up this morning sweating, which does NOT make me happy, and I'm already such a mega bitch these days that that is unfortunate. So, I discover that the A/C is busted and its 85/28 outside. That's freakin' insane. It's OCTOBER 8th! Canadian Thanksgiving! Chris' birthday (Happy birthday, my friend :)! Dave Barry's son's birthday! And 85 degrees outside. NUTS!
They fixed the A/C after only 2 phone calls though...although it got above 90 in the apartment in the meantime. The drought here due to heat and no rain continues. The two lakes that provide metro Atlanta with most of our drinking water are down between 12 and 15 feet and there is a complete outdoor watering ban - toughest water rationing in Atlanta's history, they tell us.
Global warming, anyone?

I've been screaming the same thing. It's still so darn hot outside and it's officially fall. All part of living in the south, tho!
If it makes you feel any better, this weekend we were just outside Buffalo, NY and it was in the mid 80s.
it was 92 degrees here in Ohio yesterday....weatherman says that was the last of it, but i'm not holding my breath.
*sigh*
Well, it's getting closer and closer to freezing here every morning (currently 40 degrees at 11am), so I guess that makes me the odd man out.
But then, that's how you always feel in Montana.
In Montana, even the women feel like odd men?
Yes.
I'm in Scotland and it's even hot here, which is almost unheard of. It's driving me *crazy*. I love the heat, but I'm actually wishing it would get cooler so I can wear my winter clothes and not have to keep switching the heating on and off all day....
Since it's still spring here in Airlie Beach, I would like to say that I *wish* it were getting colder so I wouldn't have to live through this ungodly heat. It's 33 degrees today, and only promises to get warmer. The forecast for tomorrow is 38. When I was in Sydney on New Years Day, it was 41 degrees. Believe me, I would much prefer some snowfall and a nice northerly wind.
I agree with K...I would love a light snowfall right about now. Today, though, is a gorgeous 66 so I'm happy for the moment. That's not true...I'm totally miserable, but I'm happy with today's weather! I've been on the deck all day :)
Also, I wanna go to Scotland! Even if its hot!
