i blame it on the heat

it's hardly 102 degrees here, but i'm already experiencing the joy and bliss of suffocating in my car for minutes until the air conditioner decides it truly wants to blow cold air. finally, when i break down and turn on the air in the house, i feel good again, and think that i can possibly survive the heat and run errands wearing jeans and a shirt with sleeves. i've been terribly mistaken. i'm saddened to admit that after the past few days weather, i don't have a skirt short enough, and a shirt low enough to brave this weather. it seems the heat will not be content until my hair is pinned away from my skin, and my skirt is exposing my ass.

these past few weeks have gone by in record time. in some ways it's terrible, because the day i'm just beginning to enjoy is usually already ending. but in the absence of time and sleep, i'm surprised at how numb the work week is capable of making me. i pack a lunch to be eaten at work, i set my alarm every night, i greet my co-workers with a smile, and suddenly a month has passed. my life seems to be navigating itself, as though i am on auto-pilot, and my only concern should be going along for the ride. how strange life is.

are you thinking what i'm thinking?
i'm thinking i should post the link to the recipe for strawnana bread.
my advice: use 1/2 cup more banana,
omit the orange zest, and don't mash the strawberries!

You can start a new trend...sorta like the emperor's new clothes. Only thing is you have to pretend like you have no clue that you are nude. I got bail money, just in case!

Hey little sister.
The weather in Montreal is nice too, it's supposed to be 26 degrees on Saturday! I went shopping at an outlet store, & I got 4 shirts & a cute jacket for 23$. I love cheap stuff :)I'm going to try making that Strawnana bread, I haven't cooked in forever! I will let you know of my endeavour. lol. By the way, you have a great mommy, a very strong woman.
