<div>Remember how you said we all just thought we'd like the cool temps over there? For some reason I didn't process how much colder it was there. I love the weather in England, but at least it gets warm enough to feel like summer. I have to agree that I'd get sick of the cold where you are. </div>

I don't think Moe will ever enjoy a kiddie pool again. That's what I made him do physical therapy in when he hurt his back, and he did NOT enjoy it.

Midge, Jess - your responses are exactly why I love you all.

Haha - I was really confused until I remembered Jess posted above me. (Jess is my name too and I wasn't sure if you knew that or not)

Go ahead and eat with your friend Poke, there's always tomorrow to start a diet!

specialk84 · June 2012

A, he has a ridiculous weather station in the garden. Among other things, it measures humidity, temperature, wind speed, and barometric pressure. I believe it's also linked to Weather Underground, so if you're dying to know the exact weather details on my property, you can look it up.

JessAndTrav · June 2012

And may I just say that regarding weather:

People biiitch far too often about the freakin' weather. When it's the "winter" months in Houston, it's like, in the 30s-40s, if that, and everyone is like, "OMG IS IT SUMMER YET?!? I'M FREEEEEZING!!!!1!11!!!"

And now that it's hot outside, everyone is like, "OMG IT'S SO HOT I'M DYING!!!!1111!!!!!"

People just whine about the most ridiculous things.

And I seriously felt like wearing a dress because it was 'so warm'.

Lol, I did not know that Midge, but it's a hilarious coincidence.

Jess - that's what we Americans do best. B!tch about stupid sh!t

I agree with this. This fall when it hits like 50, people will start complaining that it gets cold. It will get much colder, but it is usually the beginning. Then this spring when it hits 50 everyone will be in shorts, skirts, and dresses. It is a lose-lose situation with the weather.

Its nice right now in Boston, but its going to get hot and humid tomorrow and over the weekend. I think New Englanders have perfected a special method of complaining about the weather one moment and praising it the next.

My office mates are streaming the Italy-Germany game and projecting it onto the wall. I don't have much intereste in it (not because its soccer, but because it isn't the US or the UK) so I feel that gives me the right to knot all afternoon.

specialk84 · June 2012

Confession: temperature-wise, I am not happy unless it's between 55 and 85. At the low end, I can wear sweaters. I like sweaters. At the high end, I can drink next to a pool (or in the pool).

Anything below 55 makes me extremely grouchy. I have a circulation issue, and it gets worse when it's cold. Above 85? Well, I want to die. I also don't cool myself very efficiently, get dehydrated easily, and am at a high risk for heat exhaustion (ahem, yesterday).

I am one of those whiny people, though I usually whine about it to my H.

JessAndTrav · June 2012

Snippy, will it make you happy to know that I thought of you when talking with a friend on FB about IKEA, since you live in Sweden?

Or will it make you happy to know that I am about to bury my face in a bowl of spaghetti, even though I just had 2 Eggo waffles about 2 hours ago?

Ok, probably neither will make you happy. At least I tried?

specialk84 · June 2012

I will not fish a hot dog out of my wading pool.

Okay, even though my mom was out all day and just got home, she's asking me to go to the store to get her meds. By the time I get back my friend will probably be here, so I'll talk to you ladies later!

midgetthemighty · June 2012

We haven't really fought over the remote. Yet.

specialk84 · June 2012

Snippy, he got in the pool at doggie camp, so I hope he'll at least stand in this one. I don't think he likes getting his taint wet, so he may not go all the way in. Sorry folks. TMI. But yes, I will take about a million photos of him.

dumdumfroggie · June 2012

Yeah, we don't really fight over it either. We like a lot of the same things, andplusalso, I think FI just lets me win.

That's a really sweet picture, Midge. Awwww....

midgetthemighty · June 2012

Froggie, same situation here. There's one show on the DVR that he doesn't like (What Not to Wear) and a few of his that I don't like.

And thank you.

There's a few pro ones I'd like to use but they're only up on his website so far and you can't copy them.

adamar15 · June 2012

I've got H watching Gossip Girl with me. I think we see who wears the pants when it comes to the remote. Although to be fair, I've suffered through some terrible movies that he's put in the Netflix queue.

Can we do an afternoon/evening thread?
