What is going on here? Day to Day Life

IT’S FREAKIN’ HOT OUTSIDE!
Right now it’s 92°F. Yesterday it was 97°F at the same time. And we can’t even blame it on the Santa Ana’s.
I just can’t believe this. Last winter was the coldest winter I can remember since moving to California 26 years ago, and now we’re experiencing one of the hottest summers I’ve ever experienced, and it’s autumn.
There’s definitely something wrong here, and I’m not sure if it’s global warming or global cooling.
I’m just hpoing we can blame this on the Republicans.

Oh the humidity!! Day to Day Life
Comments (3) |
Although several people had commented to me over the past weekend about the humidity, it never dawned on me until this morning, why I had been feeling so sluggish lately. But when I checked the weather forecast this morning, I realized my suspicions may just be correct. [At least I hope that's the reason!]
The humidity this morning was 87%. Yesterday it was 90%. No wonder, I have been so uncomfortable, despite relatively moderate temperatures.
It’s the damn humidity!!
Now I know many of you must endure far worse conditions, and my condolences go out to you, but after 26 years in southern California, I’m just not used to that anymore. Remember, LA is a desert.
The worst part is, today I’m marshaling at the Long Beach Men’s City Championship. Fortunately it’s only supposed to get to the mid 70’s, and the humidity is supposed to drop to about 50%, but even that may be too high, out in the middle of a golf course.
Hopefully I can find a good shady spot with a nice breeze to sit.

Well it dropped down to 46°F this morning, a lot colder than it has been lately, but as I look out my window, I am heartened by the fact I can see breaks in the clouds.
It looks like it may actually be a nice day.
Plus my back has improved some more, and while I’m not going to ride again today, something that is just beating away at me, I am confident I will be able to race at Eldorado Park tomorrow.

It’s hard to believe today could be worse than yesterday, but it is.
The high today is only supposed to get to 60°F, and it’s mostly overcast, although the sun has been trying show itself on occasion. Plus there’s a 30% chance of rain all day.
Even worse, my lower back is still hurting, and it doesn’t seem to be getting much better. It may even be worse than yesterday.
I can’t sit down for more than a few minutes at a time, so I can’t even watch TV, to pass the time away, on this miserable day. And laying down on the bed doesn’t help much either.
The only consolation is, I picked a good week to hurt my back, as the weather really isn’t good bike riding weather. Still I would rather be out on the bike regardless.
Oh well, sorry for boring you all with my petty complaints, but I just had to vent and get that off my chest.
Maybe going to a wine tasting later this afternoon will cheer me up some.
