heat. flat out heat.

well we sit here waiting for time to roll on so that we can venture outside. it is 42 on my thermometer in my garden, although the weather people, employed to tell us the temperature, lie and say it is 37 here today. i can vouch that it is not 37 here today. it is bloody hot! which is not nice weather in my opinion. funny, you would think growing up in the heat i would be used to it but i am not. it must be my blood..
so roll on 6:30, by which time it should have cooled down a little *fingers crossed* so that we can throw the dogs in the car, not literally, and drive to the beach.
we could drive 20 minutes and go to a beautiful white sandy beach, with lots of people. or we could drive in th other direction for half an hour and come to what seems to be an abandoned 4 wheeler track in the middle of nowhere. bush bash for 5 minutes and end up at a nice little stretch of coast, not exactly white and sandy, but theres patches of sand, and vegetation, and little sand hills, and water! the most important part!
i want to go swimming, even if it is with two boisterous dogs and a reluctant to get wet boyfriend, at least i will get out of this sweltering heat amongst this cracked earth that surrounds me.
roll on 6:30.
