I LOVE LOUISIANA!!
Subject: Louisiana Heat
Dear Diary
Just moved to Louisiana ! Now this is a state that
knows how to live!! Beautiful sunny days and warm balmy
evenings. It is beautiful. I've finally found my home. I
love it here.
June 14th:
Really heating up. Got to 100
today. Not a problem. Live in an air-conditioned home, drive
an air-conditioned car. What a pleasure to see the sun
everyday
like this. I'm turning into a sun worshipper.
June 30th:
Had the backyard landscaped with western plants today. Lots of
cactus and rocks. What a breeze to maintain. No more mowing
the lawn
for me. Another scorcher today, but I love it here.
July 10th:
The temperature hasn't been below 100 all week. How
do people get used to this kind of heat? At least, it's
kind of windy though. But getting used to the heat is taking
longer than I expected.
July 15th:
Fell asleep by the community pool. (Got 3rd degree burns over
60% of
my body). Missed 3 days of work. What a dumb thing to do. I
learned my
lesson though. Got to respect the ol' sun in a climate like
this.
July 20th:
I missed Lomita (my dog) sneaking into the
car when I left this morning. By the time I got to the hot
car at noon, Lomita had died and swollen up
to the size of a shopping bag, then popped like a water
balloon. The car now smells like Kibbles and S****. I
learned my lesson though. No more pets in this heat. Good ol'
Mr. Sun strikes again.
July 25th:
The wind sucks. It feels
like a giant freaking blow dryer!! And it's hot as hell. The
home air-conditioner is on the fritz and the AC repairman
charged
$200 just to drive by and tell me he needed to order
parts.
July 30th:
Been sleeping outside on the patio for 3 nights
now, $225,000 house and I can't even go inside. Lomita is the
lucky one. Why did I ever come here?
Aug. 4th:
It's 115 degrees.
Finally got the air-conditioner fixed today. It cost $500 and
gets the temperature down to 85. I hate this stupid
state.
Aug. 8th:
If another wise guy cracks, 'Hot enough
for you today?' I'm going to strangle him.. Dang heat. By the
time I get to work, the radiator is boiling over, my clothes
are
soaking wet, and I smell like baked dog!!
Aug. 9th:
Tried to run some errands after work. Wore shorts, and
when sat on the seats in the car, I thought my but was on
fire. My skin melted to the seat. I lost 2 layers of flesh
and all the hair on the back of my legs and but . . . Now my
car
smells like burnt hair, fried but, and baked dog.
Aug 10th:
The weather report might as well be a dang recording.
Hot and sunny. Hot and sunny.. Hot and sunny. It's been too
hot to do anything for 2 damn months and the weatherman says it
might really warm up next week. Doesn't it ever rain in this
dang
state? Water rationing will be next, so my $1700 worth of
cactus will just dry up and blow over. Even the cactus can't
live in
this dang heat.
Aug. 14th:
Welcome to HELL! Temperature got to 115 today. Cactus are dead.
Forgot to crack the window and blew the dang windshield out of
the car.
The installer came to fix it and guess what he asked me??? "Hot
enough for you today?" My boss had to spend $1,500 to bail
me out of jail. Freaking Louisiana . What kind of a sick
demented idiot would want to live here??
Will write later to let you know how the trial goes.
