This past weekend was Labor Day. Yes, a 3-day weekend, but not one I could enjoy to its fullest as the heat was over 100 each day! It was truly unbearable! I’ve never felt anything like this before. It was dry heat, but I felt like I was being cooked alive.
Friday, Aug 31st – It was my last summer short Friday at work (3pm leave). John & I were going to go to Six Flags, but it was too hot to even go outside; so, we stayed in and watched a movie.
Saturday, Sept 1st – We slept in a little, then headed out to Corona to have lunch with my dad. It was 115 degrees out there! Crazy!!!
After lunch, we ran some errands, then met up with Emma and her friends & family for her birthday dinner at Vince’s Spaghetti House. It was great, simple food. One major problem – no a/c! Once dinner was over, we decided that Boomers was out of the question as mini-golf was an outdoor activity. We went bowling instead. Still, the bowling alley wasn’t even cold enough! Nothing was cold enough. Emma, Melanie, John & I went back to our place (mine and John’s) to play Mario Party 8 on the Wii. It was fun! Melanie won!
Sunday, Sept 2nd – Slept in, ate some food, then went to John’s to start packing his apt. After that, we went to Lyse’s for Allie & Ron’s Pre-Wedding Surprise BBQ. That was really fun – again, too hot! The a/c in Lyse’s condo was not able to handle the people. We left around 8pm or so and headed back to my place, where I collapsed on the bed for a bit. We left around 10pm to head to Malediction near K-Town. It was a great club with great music, but it was too hot in there too! No a/c – only fans! Ugh, we left around 12:45am as we couldn’t take the heat anymore. We passed early, considering we didn’t have to work on Monday.
Monday, Sept 3rd – Slept in a little. I headed to REI while John worked on putting away things he brought over. I got new hiking boots and a tent fan!
After I got back, we went back to his old place to pack more and load up the car. We finished in just a few hours, and I felt dead to the world from the heat. Once we got back home, I didn’t want to leave again no matter what! I cleaned up a bit, then settled in for the night. John left for Wii at the Mike’s place. I just couldn’t bring myself to leave the apt. I was happy in my 76 degrees! Around 12:40am, I went to bed. John came home just as I was heading to bed. He woke me up around 1:30am fearing Sandy had eaten some Christmas lights. Luckily, she just killed them (the small plastic bag was torn open and the lights and batteries were scattered on the floor. It was frightening, but funny later on. Ah what a weekend… I want summer to be over already!!!
