Wonders of Weather

Cold... the kind of cold that makes you tingle and you look around and wonder how the air became so frosty.  My toes are tingling and my feet are icy.  I woke up this morning with cold feet.  I am actually wearing a cardigan.  Can you believe it?

Hot... the kind of hot that makes you sweat in every place imaginable.  You wonder if, like the wicked witch of the west, you are really melting into a puddle on the floor.  I was walking to the shops yesterday and the ends of my hair were wet with sweat.  Incredible!

After what seemed like a very long summer the weather is beginning to cool down and I am overjoyed. I'm not one who enjoys the heat.  When Hank Green sang It's Too Hot I found a kindred spirit.

It's Too Hot

By Hank Green

My eyes snap open, it's two o'clock

I rip off my shirt, my pants, my socks

Something's wrong but I don't know what

But then, I start to realize

There's sweat trickling down my thighs

And a fire between the mattress and my butt

It's too hot

It's too hot in here

I'm gonna fall out of my chair

If I have another ice cold beer

I forgot

How much it sucks to sweat in bed

I don't wanna drink your iced tea

I think I'll take a bath in it instead

It's too hot

Laying on the floor with my clothes off

Silk boxer shorts and a wash cloth

Are the only things I'll let touch my skin today

Spraying myself with an upside down air can

Makin' out with the window fan

Hoping the mailman doesn't look in today

It's too hot

It's too hot in this town

My will to live is melting

And that's what's got me down

It's too hot

And my state is on fire

I'm an endothermic organism

And that's why I perspire

When it's too hot

The United Nations

Says eleven thousand

People die of hotness each year

But the burning sun

It wants eleven thousand and one

But it's not gonna get me, you hear

Sweating in my basement all alone

Watching Hotness Prevails by thewinekone

Sympathizing with my favorite YouTube star

How could anyone be so deranged

And not believe in climate change

When it's 102 in Montana in the dark?

It's too hot

And I'm doing a funny dance

'Cause I went and got some ice cubes

And I put them in my pants

It's too hot

It's too hot in here

I'm probably gonna pass out

But please pass me my beer

It's too hot

That's that then!
