A few "To-Don'ts" when it's 98 Degrees (with 478% Humidity)

It doesn't matter where you're from or how much you love warm weather or that I don't get what it's like to live up North. There is no denying that it is FREAKING HOT. Really it's gross hot. Smelly, sticky, moist, smothering hot. (Note to self: Call Waffle House for a new North Carolina inspired Omelette).

I have done several things today that I would not recommend you do in this type of offensive heat. Here they are, in no particular order, so you do not repeat this complete lack in judgment.

1) Do not try to enjoy hot coffee on your front porch. It's like drinking hot tub water while sitting in a hot tub - nowhere near as luxurious an experience as it sounds.

2) Do not try to brush out your dog's super hairy tail. The result is much like being tar and feathered...only it's "sweat and haired".

3) Do not run 2 miles at 1:15pm in the afternoon. I would actually not even recommed walking in this canned hell. If you can avoid going out of your house all together, just do that. The mail will still be there in the morning.

Since I was dumb enough to do all this, I'm going to cash in on a little secret my dogs taught me to cool down quickly. I'm off to find the nearest air vent and lay directly over it...grate marks be damned!

Stay Classy Raleigh~
