How have you been keeping cool in this heatwave?

[Mirren]

I went out yesterday shopping in a mall... it was 94 and humid as Hell. It was a bit cooler in there but everyone had the same idea. I was going for a birthday gift for a friend, lol. There is a pool and jacuzzi at this complex but the kids are going wild and have took it over hehe. They have to go to school soon, so I understand where they are coming from. Is anyone here without cental air? My condolences.

Apparently only 1 in 4 Angelenos has central air, but I am happily one of them. It was one of the only criteria I had for choosing a place. I get sick and foggy from too much heat really really easily, although cold doesn't really bother me.

I would love to jacuzzi round about now.

three fans, central air, cold dr pepper.

when i'm at work, the scullery has no ac, the exhaust from an ice machine two fridges, a freezer and a wealk in, teh 198* dish washer and the sink full of hot water. i spend alot of time in the walk in.

i actually fight the heat..with heat.
if im going out somewhere i leave the ac in the car off, and drive with the windows down. the more i get used to it the less hot it feels to me outside.

at home i keep it around 80 with the ac on and off. Just because when i use a 1500 Watt steamer for hours it gets a little stuffy, but notthing unbearable.

ice cream + reeses + blender = good summer snack

for some odd reason i like the ceiling fan better than the AC... AC makes my head all stuff... i need air to breathe...

water. water. water.

a few years ago when i was in slightly bettter health i could withstand any amount of heat. didn't matter. i just stayed hydrated, and that was that.

now the heat, and dead air of subway tunnels is what doest me in. ugh.

[mmmcherry]

HEAT SUCKS ASS!!! period.
im so glad the heat isnt as bad up here anymore... i can actually work without feeling like fainting... keiko has the right idea though, i spend alot of time in the walk in at my work too hehe...
(what kind of place do you work keiko??)
friday before last i spent a full 10 mins or so in the walk in and when i came back out to make some more pizza dough... 5 mins later i was too hot again. i had to go home

[LoraLie]

i dont go outside.
sad but true.

since i just stay at home & do housework for my parents. yep . . . . i just stay inside with the ac & work on keeping myself pale & pretty.

i'm a lucky little cunt. my life is pretty easy.

I work in this little european cyber cafe/commisarry coffe shop place. it's awesomely nifty, all teh foriegn chocolates i can eat.

I have no idea how i used to wear full length black shirts and pants, boots and a trench coat in this heat back in high school. man i was nuts. even when i didn't have the trench coat i had this huge blue "homeless guy's cordoury jacket" as Rob called it, that i wore instead of taking a purse, cause the pockets were awesomely huge, all six of 'em. and cause alot of times going into places with the AC way up i woudl freeze.but man was i nuts.

mmmm foriegn chocolates... *wanders over to visit keiko in her cybercafe*

haha yeah i freeze in AC too... the refrigerator isle at the supermarket i HATE im always cold... driving in my dads truck i have to wear my hoodie, even in the middle of summer... then you open the door and its like AHHH HEAT!!! instant heat wave.
voldta has the right idea there hehe... i love driving in the car with the windows down, i actually prefer it to AC

[LoraLie]

i never sweat.
well of course i do but yeah
its like 90 outside. my boyfriend is sweating like crazy & i feel icky to touch him cause i dont have a drop of sweat on me.

sometimes i think i'm the coldest person in the world. cause i'm a popsicle while my friends are cozy & i'm comfortable when everyone else is burning up.

[grebo]

its so funny being on the other side of the world
at the moment im trying not to catch a cold and trying to keep warm at work

[mmmcherry]

i bet itd be perfect for us over there right now... hehe...
omg party at grebos place :P haha!
