It's all downhill from here.

Ain't you just full o' sunshine?

[clevermanka.livejournal.com]

Always.

Here is a very highly professional infographic on how I view summer, from a couple of years ago:

I used to love summer and hot weather, but my body doesn't regulate heat very well anymore. I still love the long days, though. Summer solstice is always a depressing day for me.

I'm Welsh by origin. We just weren't made to cope with heat. Like Canadians. Wales is like England's Canada. Or something. WE HAVE SIMILAR PROBLEMS OKAY

It is 93 degrees here today. I am hiding indoors.

That is exactly the temperature here in Ottawa, Canada, today. Come to Canada... we can make you just as miserable, eh.

I heard the humidity up there is absolutely horrendous. Right now it's just 51%, so it's not as bad as it CAN be down in SW Ohio. But I do know how that muggy stifling heat can be, and you have my deepest sympathies. :/

Not true. Revisit that thought in 6 months.

Nope, in six months the days start getting longer, and that makes me happy. It might take a while before the warmth arrives, but at least I know the dark days are behind me!

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

The awesomeness is half-over. Though, because it didn't quite work with my schedule to be running in the hottest part of the day, I just changed (this week) to running in Frick Park before work, from about 9-10 a.m. It's a habit I hope to keep until at least October, when it starts getting lame and cold.

I will say, the forest in late morning is amazingly beautiful. And humid enough to still be pretty warm.

I'll have to post pictures next time I'm on a weekend run - though, it seems that this weekend will be spent in DC *fingers crossed*.

Makes me sad, too.

On a bright note, Lisa and I will be in Lawrence next week, staying over Monday and Tuesday night. =) I hope we can meet up!

Hugs you,
