It's Hot as Fuck

Hey everybody, hope y'all had a Happy 4th. Me? No fucking way.

I was off Friday and what would happen on Thursday night? Our air conditioner stopped working. And hubby called the repair peeps and they said they couldn't come out til this Friday. Hubby said we would die by then cuz the temps have been in the upper 90's to 100's. He then proceeded to cuss at the dude and the guy said "Sir, I just want to let you know that you are being recorded". To which hubby replied "Good. I hope the Sears fuckers hear every damn word I say". Yea he's classy, I know.

So Louisiana + no a/c = FUCKING HELL. I sweated so much I lost 3 pounds. I thought my dog was gonna die cuz bulldogs can't handle heat. But don't worry about my kid, he was having an awesome sweaty old time.

And fans do nothing but blow hot air around. And sitting outside is a tad bit cooler but not much. I read the temp on our porch which is covered and shady, and it was 97 degrees.

This is exactly what happens after a Hurricane but EVERYBODY has no a/c cuz nobody has electricity.

And for that reason, my Dad went with me Saturday and bought a portable A/C unit and is letting us use it. He wanted one for hurricane season anyway and he would do anything for me so he went and bought one.

It works enough that we aren't dying, but it's nowhere near as cool as we're used to. So we are able to survive inside right now and not kill each other. (For now)

The dickhead repair man comes today but I'm sure he has to order a part which HAS TO come from Bum Fuck Egypt and that will take 4 or more days. So until then, we will survive with our temporary a/c. And eat whatever the fuck I can cook on the stovetop cuz there's no way I'm turning on my oven.

Now let me get back to work cuz the A/C works HERE. I swear I feel like I'm in an igloo. And I LOVE it!

Look at it this way, by the time the part gets there you'll look like Kate Moss.

ours went out a couple weeks ago but thankfully my hub's cousin is an a/c guy so it was fixed that night. i had the kids sleeping naked (w/ underwear) just in case we were going to have to pull an all nighter with no a/c.

oh dear lord, I would die! I HATE THE HEAT!! so thank God I live in NY and only gets small spurts of high heat. I totally feel for ya...I would have probably headed for a hotel or something... but seeing you live in the sticks that probably wasnt an option, was it?

You poor thing, I hope it is better today and thanks again for making me chuckle with your blog cuz I really need it right now.

That's the shit right there.

When we lived in Mississippi my parents would come visit in July & December. The AC always broke when they were there in the summer.

I feel bad for you.

Why didn't you go hang out at the WalMart?

I hope you get your cool soon. When I lived in Houston my A/C went out a couple times in the summer. Hotter than hell.

Your handling it better than I would. I would already be in jail.
Hopefully it wont take too long for the "part" to arrive. Or he wont need a "part" at all, he'll have it on the truck. Fingers crossed.

But in brighter news...

BIG BROTHER starts Thursday!!
WOO HOO!!!!
*ahem

So heres the thing... I don't have centeral air. At first I was really bothered until I realized that I could easily replace one window unit before I could complete a phone call to a repairman. I have learned to love them fully. Sorry you had to sweat your ass off.
