Could this be the hottest I have ever been?
No. I grew up in Southern California, where it would be 100 degrees on Christmas all the time. And I grew up without air conditioning because my parents were too cheap to keep us cool (which, to this day I still don’t get – so you saved maybe 200 bucks a year? Worth it).
But the thermometer says 91 degrees – and that’s INSIDE – and that’s at 9:45 PM – and that’s in PORTLAND, OREGON.
What the hell? Is this hell?
All I can say is this: my poor wife is suffering so much in this god-forsaken heat wave. She is nearly 9 months pregnant (38 weeks) and ready to burst. She can barely sleep at night (did I mention we do NOT have air conditioning?) and I don’t blame her.. it’s like trying to sleep in a sauna. I hope this heat ends soon so that she can sleep before this baby is born. She needs her rest, her energy for labor.
Go away heat. Nobody invited you to Portland. Go back to back, to Cali, Cali. NOW.
