Not very well. There was a "fun day" at my school today where the grad class got to go outside for the last three periods of the day and just hang out. Unfortunately, our water fountains were busted, and Fun Day turned out to be Let's See How Long The Children Can Go Without Water In 95 Degree Weather Day.

I can stand hot weather, but a lot of kids in my school can't. By ninth period, there were people crawling on the floor begging for water. "WATER!!! WATER!!!" They cried, with dry, whispered voices. And then I laughed. "HA HA! I laugh at you, and your misfortune!" Oh, how I laughed at them!

Okay, that might be taking it a bit too far, but it was funny to see hundreds of people lined up at the water fountain.

I love hot weather and can handle humidity better than cold. For me, anything under 70 is cold...so why the hell do I live in NE?

What bothers me most about the weather is the people who bitched and complained all spring "When are we ever going to get some summer weather?" Now, on the first day it reaches the 90's in Boston these same poeple are comaplining that it's too hot and insisting that they never complained about the cold.

I don't even mind NYC in summer.

joeyjoe and I got our airconditioner installed night before last, and its working fine. I, to, am a warm weather person - I'd rather have it in the 80s every day of the year than below 50 - yuck...I'm glad summer is here!

I miss New York City like, well Hades but whenever I complain about not being in my beloved Theater District, my parents laugh and show me the weather in NYC. So I'm sorry, I hope you guys are okay and spending time in department stores that are air conditioned!

Actually, today's ok, but it looks like the floodgates are about to open in the sky.
