Every single summer in Lubbock starts “not so bad” and ends up “total misery,” y’all.<\/p>\n
We are beginning to see multiple days straight up there in the 100s, and a lot of us are already having thoughts that would concern a therapist.<\/p>\n
The temperature has officially broken our brains, and some of you may be Googling some pretty extreme stuff, like:<\/p>\n
“How to get away with murdering the sun””Can you get a restraining order on daylight?””Is it illegal to crawl through a Walmart freezer door?””How do I lower my power bill without dying?””Is Satan outside, or do I just need better curtains?””How to mail yourself to Alaska””Do birds burn their feet on the sidewalk too?”‘Can you cook a Hot Pocket in your car?”<\/p>\n
By the time August arrives, we no longer even check the forecast.<\/p>\n
We already know, it’s going to suck.<\/p>\n
It’ll be hot today.<\/p>\n
Hot tomorrow.<\/p>\n
And, probably hot until one random day in October when God decides that he does, in fact, still love us.<\/p>\n
Until then, here’s hoping your AC is blowing cold! If not, I hope at least that your neighbor has a fancy sprinkler system AND rarely looks out the window.<\/p>\n
Run through it like a madman! You have my permission, and that’s all that really matters.<\/p>\n
