`It’s no secret that it gets hot here in Arizona. It’s been 105 – 110 for over a week now.
The problem when it finally hits 100 degrees longer than a day or two, is that people’s brains become fried. Tempers get short and the “stupid” comes out.
Stupid and Tempers do not go well together either.
I could go on forever about the stupid things that happen, but I’d rather share them individually throughout the summer.
Today, I had several complaints from customers, employees and even myself today. What are the odds, we all experienced the same special type of “stupid” today?
It’s not secret the heat zaps us of our energy and ability to think. What you might not know, is this lack of energy is so strong that when we get in our vehicles, we lose the ability to turn our head when we back up. Yep, that turning of our head is so strenuous, that to even attempt might cause immediate nap time.
So we just back up, tossing caution to the wind, and letting the dice roll.
Who cares if there is a car coming…my smart car can take down your SUV
Who cares if a kid is walking behind us….stupid kid shouldn’t be in the street anyways
Who cares if the bicyclist is back there….ride on the sidewalk stupid!
Who cares if the lady with the baby stroller is passing….I’m sure she isn’t attached to the munchkin…
Who cares …I’m tired and it is too much work to turn my head to look! Is it nap time yet??
Who cares?
Who cares?!
I care dang it!!!
LOL
~~~
But I will tell ya, the only fun part of this stupidity is when it happens to others. Then it is freaking hilarious….
Just don’t hit the Pink Truck….
~
~~~till we laugh again~~~
please don’t hit the pink truck !
LOL
We have stupid and tempers here, even in the coldest weather 🙂
must be extremes. Heat doesn’t bother me, but I HATE being cold. LOL
Loves this post 🙂 🙂 so true! I get pretty cranky too during the heat ! :p
Glad you like it! Good luck with your new blog 😀
my real mother lived in arizona, yuma, and every time i visited i died from the dry heat!!! too bad i didn’t lose a pound or two also…………lol
LOL, I laugh at the “dry heat”. Yes we aren’t dealing with the mugginess (thank god) but the dry part means the sun burns since there are no clouds or anything to deflect it.
Wow, I can’t imagine doing much outside in those temperatures. We don’t face 105 degrees too much in Ohio. 🙂
You do get use to it, but those first 30 days the “crazy” comes out. LOL
I’m not sure what it is but extreme temperatures make the Stupids and Tempers bloom more. So does rain and snow. Sometimes mild breezes do too. But you’re right, usually the heat is what does it.
Yep, cooks the brain LOL
Hilarious…I could wish we had a little of your heat though…well considering it’s only about 60 here…a lot of your heat….Diane
60 sounds so good right now… LOL
yes not the pink truck!!
It’s not the heat, it’s the stupidity!
I am lazy all year round…
Heat + car = bad situation.
amen…
The hot temps always remind me of a quote from Romeo and Juliet: “For now, these hot days, is the mad blood stirring.” Even Shakespeare knew that people get a little crazy in hot weather! 😉
LOL… yep, we’ve been crazy for years!
Please say this stupid never extends to the ice cream! I could only tolerate that kind of heat if ice cream was at the end of the road!
You’d think they would eat more ice cream but something about melting… LOL
Your lucky you get it in seasons…
lol, true…you got me there 😀
