America is melting
America is melting...literally. For anyone reading this blog outside the U.S. or in a nice mild climate (you know who you are) fuck you;), because the rest of us are melting our faces off in 100 degree weather. It's so freaking hot out that last night I was talking to one Lisaopolis and even she, a staunch hater of all things air conditioned, had been seeking refuge all day in an ultra frigid Starbucks. Don't they know that Irish people char in the sun?! And because of this, the U.S. has gone into energy crisis mode. The Gawker has even joked about an 18 hour over/under for the next city power outage. I was in the city during the last blackout on the freaking hottest day of the year, so it's like Nam flashbacks for me just thinking about it.
In other news, lazy sluts of the world rejoice because the morning after pill is shortly going to be offered over the counter. So for all of you too lazy to take the 10 extra seconds to put the condom on, you don't have to worry anymore! Of course at that point, you can lounge around worry free in your apartment while scratching your crotch from crabs and the Syph. But hey, at least you won't be procreating!
Editor's note: Hello again! As there seems to have been some confusion as to the joke I made about the morning after pill, I decided to state for the record that no, of course I do not think that women who want to use the morning after pill are lazy sluts. My only problem is with people who use it regularly as their only method of birth control because it could be seen as a quick fix in place of acting responsibly. And when I say only, I don't mean a one time mistake with the hot Turkish entertainment director at the your vacation resort either. So keep on gettin it on everyone!
As I ponder that fact that it is, in fact, August, I ask myself, what is it that I actually did this summer? I clearly have spent little time working on my research or organizing my files, as I wanted to. Hawaii was over 2 months ago, so what the hell have I been doing since?! I'm going to have to investigate past blog entries from this summer to find out if I have actually done anything at all. My gut feeling is no, not so much. Hope you all are staying cool and leading infinitely more interesting lives than I am in Central PA right now. Later!



2 Spreading blog love one person at a time:
Such vitriol for the breeders among us! I am aghast.
And stop ya kvetchin' with da heat. The first ten days I was out here it was 103, 104, 105 and fracking MISERABLE. And? The next person to use the phrase "but it's a dry heat" gets a frying pan to the head. Or something.
But seriously, I hope it cools off there soon. Remember: LOTS AND LOTS of fluids, preferably in the form of iced caramel macchiatos.

Seriously, dry heat: hot but I'd take it over this crap any day. Oh, what am I saying, heat is heat is heat is heat and it's not meant to be this way. But there's no global warming to worry about, according the Environmental President.
And I've started to NAME the various new body odor smells I've developed during Summer 2006, some of them immediately after showering. Gosh!
OK, the funniest part of that morning after pill thing is this: "...we encourage you to try Plan B just once, if only because the woman in its advertisement looks so damn serene. Inner peace comes from knowing you knocked that would-be zygote out of commission."
That's just clever!
And having slag through these hot days? Having to do it whilst Aunt Flo is in town for her monthly visit. It's a real treat.
I also have no idea how it got to be August or how I have no idea what I'm writing about for my work stuff. Wheeeee! Can I blame my case of space-out on the heat?? AMEN!
