When you can't keep your ice cube trays full
When you turn off your water heater
When the entire top shelf of your fridge is filled with cold drinks and there are 4 boxes of popsicles in the freezer
When the only way you can fall asleep is to take a freezing cold shower 10 minutes before bed.
When you get used to that shiny, slightly damp feeling on your skin all day
When even the pool water is too warm
When a hair dryer is completely out of the question
When you choose your outfit based on the thickness of fabric (Wes has resorted to wearing his thrift store, vintage shirts with no undershirt...sexy, huh?)
When running after 8 am is impossible
and ohhh, the cockroaches...
I remember why Atlanta can be a terribly, awful, swampy, disgusting, life-killing place to live. Every year it seems that just when Atlanta is growing on me because of it's incredible Spring weather, flowers, and thunderstorms, Summer comes and makes me want to move away and never look back. I'm a whiner who doesn't like the heat, but for gosh sakes, it's only JUNE! Wes and I have never weathered an entire summer here yet, and I am scared!! Hopefully the window fans I bought today will allow us to sleep and live comfortable without paying hundreds of dollars a month in utilities!
