Well the horrible heat has finally broken. Instead of heat index ranging from 100-107 its just been in the upper 90s. I think 99 might have been the highest.
I keep leaving work early because I cant get cool enough. I'm heat intolerant and my body generates an insane amount of heat. I'll feel comfortable or even a little cold and Matthew will tell me I'm like a space heater
My neck fan keeps running out of power.
Sheryl ....freeze some water bottles and wrap them in thin towels or t shirt and then put it at the small of your back or your lap. Will help cool yoi off.
Also get aloe gel and liberally apply it and sit in front of a fan. It evaporates slower than water and helps cool you off.
Or it did me when I was at the beach before we had ac there.
Just landed in Costa Rica where the local temps are about 10 degrees cooler that NYC. (Or so my weather app says, I'm still on the plane waiting to taxi in)
Have a blast, Jess. Give us deets so we can be appropriately jealous.
Things are better for me the past day or two. except for the fools across the street with the fireworks.
I know I can be a major kvetch, but the nausea after only a few months of "Wow, glad that thyroid thing is over," does seem on the mean side, especially since I can't do what Archie Bunker wanted and "Change...change right now!" and I can't move around and don't know how long the shit's gonna take--Generally, I'm not on the winning side of (shrug) "It's different for everyone," and, bloodwork aside, that thyroid thing took the better part of an entire *year* to even sort of get right, even without me not being thrilled to go from social status as Squeaky-Voiced Teen to getting to finish up as Seymour's mother.

A new trend line! May it continue.
In exciting news, I just took the dog outside again and there are lightning bugs, or fireflies, can't remember which they are called where.
In less exciting news, I think my dog has something bad going on. I have a vet appointment Tuesday morning. He has become really bad about eating, very anxious, digestive issues, and other oddities. We'll see what the vet has to say.
Hello! In my semi-lurking, I saw the question about goodstuffhappenedtoday, and I just.... got bored with it the other day so maybe it's cancelled? Sorry.
