I can't bare it no longer, one more week to go.
43c, 44c, 45c in the last three days, no power in places, train system collapsing due to buckled tracks.
And I haven't had the chance to go on here until now as it has cooled a bit, otherwise my room is an oven with the computer on!

    To be honest I really dont think I would like it to be that hot, I would most likely shrivel up and die.

    :shock: my sister just moved over there a couple of months ago... it's just her luck :( and my sister, niece and nephew all have seriously fair skin... they're probably pretty much locked up.
    The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
    Verona??? it's all surmountable
    Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
    Wembley? We all believe!
    Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
    Chicago 07? And love
    What a different life
    Had I not found this love with you

    would you rather extreme cold like in the states right now or extreme heat like in Adelaide and Melbourne right now?

    Heat.

    I can always chill in a tub of water but it's harder for me to get warm when it is really cold.
    So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream
    Where I'm not ugly and you're lookin' at me

    We just survived the coldest Chicago January in 25 years! It hasn't been above freezing in almost a month and has been as cold as -33 C. Shut your mouth! :D
