Yay TWOP!! I got booted from there but snuck back on HeeHee. Your recaps are better because they aren’t 25 pages per episode. I enjoy reading other people’s observations of the episode not the entire thing brought back to life!

As a person who grew up in a drier climate and then moved to a humid one at the age of 29, there is no comparison of heat to humidity. Humidity makes things much more uncomfortable! Gimme dry heat any day.

Not sure if you have many followers from Georgia like me but I can certainly feel for you with the humidity. It’s always terrible here. You always feel like a whore in church : ) P.S. I’m a self-professed Survivor watcher too.

As one who is currently suffering through in SoCal: yes, you are correct. It was a record-breaking 113 in downtown LA yesterday — we think, but are not sure, because the “official thermometer” (who knew?) hit 113. And promptly broke.
I would never deny your right to complain about anything on your own blog — I enjoy what you have to say way too much.

My husband sleeps with a t-shirt over his eyes like Riley is in the photo! Couldn’t be bothered to turn the light off, eh?

I lived in Seattle for 8 years, and now live in SoCal, and I have to say that I’ll take our 113 degree heat w/10% humidity ANY DAY over your 75 degree, 85% humidity. Yeesh. Complain away!!

Great pic! Hopefully it didn’t hurt. I’m in Northern California (just outside of SF) and it’s 102 right now. Downtown SF is 95! Crazy.. I’m ready for the fall!

This humidity is why I LEFT Georgia! It’s driving me nuts. Gross.

It’s evilly sticky out here in New England, too. I thought I left these days behind when I moved away from Florida! Already so fuckin’ tired of it.

Riley — so cute! My kids do that all the time, too. Cracks me up every time. :)

Just moved from central Oregon to the Portland area and we are experiencing the same thing here. WTF?! I am not used to this; I miss the drier climate that lives just over the Cascade Range.

You have a five-year-old who naps? No wonder you’re so productive! (But what time does he go to bed?)

Hello from sticky, hot, and nasty South Alabama! Your complaints get a big, “OMFG, I KNOW!!” from me. Can’t wait for fall and I’m loving the Survivor recaps!

I so need a nap.

I literally burst out laughing when you compared our weather to an armpit!! I got out of the car at the Puyallup Costco yesterday and thought the entire place SMELLED like an armpit

You sort of have my sympathy because I live in DC. But, you also totally DO NOT have my sympathy because I live in DC and we have deathly armpit summers that last about 2-3 months.
However, my eyebrows were all Wuz-Up Bitch?! at the mention of pumpkin flavored baked goods. BRING IT Fall!

Florida chiming in to say “Yes. We understand humidity and MAN does it suck here, too.”

BUT, if I lived somewhere that was *supposed* to be cooler and drier (cough, looking at YOU, Washington), and generally what I would imagine Florida would be like if someone dragged a stick of ‘Soft ‘N Dry’ up and down this armpit state; then, yes. Even more reason for you to be pissed about the humidity.

I recommend cool showers and lemonade!

Well as another Seattle person I agree that the weather is odd, but! I like the soft air. The big, brown stripped spiders are called “Gigantic House Spiders” they are harmless and this is their mating season, which is why they are suddenly everywhere-they’ll all go away soon. These spiders keep the poisonous ones away so its good they are here.

holla! From florida…….i laughed out loud about the dog panting on you all day long…..thats ExACTLY what it feels like…..hahaha!

It’s like an armpit here in MA too! I can’t stand it.

I like v. dramatic draping of the blanket over his eyes. As if he just succumbed to the sleep.

hehe…I can’t tell if that’s Riley or Dylan but my now 7 year old took naps until 5 or so too (still does sometimes) so rock on those naps. I love the foot wedged under the bureau.

It’s been horribly warm, humid and rainy in NYC this week, too — one bad hair day after another. We need some FALL up in here.

Survivor is full of bat shit crazy people this season. I have to say I love it!

I’ll come over if you promise not to ban me for being OT.

Those morons on Survivor voted Jimmy Johnson off! I had high hopes for them but now I just hope they crash and burn. Post when you put up your recap.

I still covet that striped bedcover.

We had all that warm tropical moisture out here yesterday and coming up from the cool and relatively “dry” basement to the upstairs where the warm sticky breeze was blowing was like walking into a dog’s mouth. I am right there with you!

Hey, your kid still takes naps. I am highly jealous. Ours quit several months before his 3rd birthday. The only time he nods off now is in the car, and if we’re lucky, the stars are aligned, etc., for about 20 – 30 minutes, tops.

BTW, your nature photos are AMAZING, even though no one’s mentioned them yet.

Riley napping – so sweet! My 2 year old does that too, fights sleep even though its blatenly obvious she needs to hit the reset button with a good nap. The whole, I don’t need a nap! I’m bouncing on the couch! I’m running through the livingroom! I’m not tired! I’m sskkknnnnzzzzz…… love it.
