However, now that much of the country is experiencing the kind of humid heat Houstonians endure 5-6 months a year, folks are quiet! They've all but stopped asking me why I don't drive my car around for "pleasure" on Saturday and Sunday afternoons!

Man I hope this heat wave doesn't last all the way through to October down here like it usually does.

You know, I never though a tropical storm would be a welcome sight until this summer. It would bring a welcome relief from the heat for a few days.
As of yesterday, we've had 78 minutes over 80F this year. So I guess we're missing all the fun. But I can imagine that no matter how bad it is for the rest of the country, it's always worse in Houston.
