Hot And Bothered

So, first anthros all complain about the cold nights and warm days and then about the rain that comes whenever it feels like it and now the HEAT, 85 degrees and climbing.  Which is not so hot really for some of you who live in the south, but still…you’re not in a fur coat!

Hey, we wanted summer and we got it!

Mama remembers days in Texas of over 100 degrees, long and steamy and everyone drooping like old sunflowers on their stalks, all of the kids wishing they had swimming pools.

Mama had a neighbor who was nice enough to offer a swim every now and then, but to go in your own backyard and fall into the water would have been better, haha.

Her bad big brother condescended to squirt her with a hose.  And didn’t want to stop, haha, gurgle, gurgle…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh, for some of this!

I personally, do not swim or care to.  But I can empathize with others who are…er…affected more than they used to be by the heat.  “They” with a capital ‘T’.  He understands who understands…

Ah, youth! And mama says they couldn’t go around comfortably half naked the way anthros do now, but there was always the ice cream truck or jello popsicles made by mama’s mama.  Hey, I’ll bet even I could have one of those, right?  As long as we’re on a popsicle run here.  Or maybe frozen yogurt for me.  Yes, I think that would actually work better and doesn’t drip all over.

Mama, do we have any salmon yogurt, haha?

I’m flattened by this heat.

We think that little pink tongue will cool you by at least 10 degrees

It’s been cool here…we’re hoping it heats up…but the weather guys are talking more rain and cool temps…so it might be awhile.

What? Are you telling us that summer has arrived in Rome???

Here we are still back in winter. Lots of cold rain and the slugs are having a good time in my garden.

Too bad…

Wow – you look like you need a swimming pool, Loulou! Maybe one of those inflatable ones? That’s what we had as kids!! Couldn’t swim in it, but the water was cool. Well, I got my summer trim yesterday and have had such energy! But it hasn’t really gotten hot here – yet. PLUS mama read a publicity for Picards – they have veggie and fruit popsicles! 3 kinds and 2 have no milk!! Going to get those today! You should suggest to their marketing department the idea for salmonsicles for kitties – and doggies!! They do have frozen burgers for dogs!

Ooofka, my mommies Swedish Grandma used to say. We don’t know what it really means but mommies ancestors came from Sweden and Ireland and they would much rather put a coat with a hood and a brimmed hat under that (especially if they wore glasses) as they rode their bikes around the country side and were used to the cooler weather.
These days the humans go from air conditioning to more air conditioning and they don’t know what to wear. Mommy freezes in the office with sweaters and sometimes more sweaters over her knees if she wears a dress or shorts. Then she has to go outside and die from the heat!
It’s not supposed to be in the 80’s and 9o’s until August! We might just have to move to Alaska!

Eeek! Please keep the heat there! We are comfortable here in Michigan, (unusually comfortable and we are loving it!) Keep cool!

I would prefer ice cream inside an air conditioned house 🙂

The heat and the rain are a bad combination, for sure. I guess those are gelatos, but the colors look more like they are lettuce and beet flavors.
