Heat wave

Yesterday in the Chicago area the temperature climbed into the 90s(F). Unfortunately my car does not have air conditioning. Yet I chose to torment myself and my family by going to the mall in the early afternoon. The temperature must have been about 100 degrees in the car. There was little or no wind. By the time we got home I felt overheated and sick. It took me more than an hour to cool down enough to be comfortable again.

I was shocked to find out that my fiance, who lives in Texas, only experienced temperatures in the 80s. I am truly mortified. Well, sort of. I wish the temps would stay cooler here than in Texas, but I know that when I move there (after the wedding next year) I will rejoice at any temperature drop I can get.
