A little memo for all my out of state friends: you know how they say California is the land of mild temperatures all year around. Well, they lie. I'll give you the fact that we have mild winters, it never gets below 30 degrees here even at night, but summer is a whole other story.
We're on our ninth day of record heat, Saturday was 113, Sunday was 111, today is 109. They are talking about doing rotating blackouts during the hottest part of the day. *And* they are 'suggesting' that we turn up our air conditioners to the mid 80s or so. Yeah right. I had heat exhaustion earlier this weekend, I'm not about to go through it again, voluntarily.
I think they should just give everyone the day off, that way they can conserve energy and shut down all the offices running today.
And whoever the mysterious "they" are, they can bite me.
End rant.
