It is so hot here. My skin feels like it’s boiling off. Braising is perhaps a better cooking term, since it’s 80%+ humidity outside, so I get to oven roast in my own juices. It doesn’t help that I’m dealing with a stomach bug right now–how ironic is THAT? I came from Mexico to Texas, remember? So it’s oh-so-pleasant dealing with the infernal temperatures outside. They said we’d get a reprive tomorrow of a few degrees.

And nothing is more small-talk useless than the ubiquitous, “It’s a hot one today, eh?” every place you go. Such depth. I can’t blame them — their brains are scramble-fried about as much as mine. I’ll post more about other stuff that’s happened, but before I do, I had to share at least this.

Here is a little infographic courtesy of the Weather Channel, annotated by yours truly to make the data more clear:

    Ah, compadre, what a drag. Here in Seattle it is 60 and sunny, though we have had some interesting spring weather with a bit of hail here, some high winds there and (you’d never guess) rain.
    Makes me feel sorry for my sister in law in Houston.
    I’d suggest some acidophilus for your stomach troubles, or plain yogurt if you can’t make the trip to GNC. BTW congrats on impending fatherhood.
