a little advice for those thinking of moving to Las Vegas:
May 30th: Just moved to Las Vegas, Nv. Now this is a state that knows how
to live!! Beautiful sunny days and warm balmy evenings. What a place! It is
beautiful. I've finally found my home. I love it here.
June 14th: Really heating up. Got to 100 today. Not a
problem. Live in an air-conditioned home, drive an
air-conditioned car. What a pleasure to see the sun
everyday like this. I'm turning into a sun worshipper.
June 30th: Had the backyard landscaped with western plants today. Lots of
cactus and rocks. What a breeze to maintain. No more mowing lawn for me.
Another scorcher today, but I love it here.
July 10th: The temperature hasn't been below 100 all
week. How do people get used to this kind of heat? At
least it's kind of windy though. But getting used to
the heat is taking longer than I expected.
July 15th: Fell asleep by the community pool. (Got 3rd degree burns over 60%
of my body). Missed 3 days of work. What a dumb thing to do. I learned my
lesson though. Got to respect the ol' sun in a climate like this.
July 20th: I missed Lomita (my cat) sneaking into the
car when I left this morning. By the time I got to
the hot car at noon, Lomita had died and swollen up to the size of a shopping bag and stank up the
upholstery. The car now smells like Kibbles and shits
I learned my lesson though. No more pets in this heat.
July 25th: The wind sucks. It feels like a giant
freaking blow dryer!! And it's hot as hell. The home
air-conditioner is on the fritz and the AC repairman
charged $200 just to drive by and tell me he needed to order parts.
July 30th: Been sleeping outside on the patio for 3
nights now. $225,000 house and I can't even go inside. Why did I ever come
here?
Aug. 4! th: Its 115 degrees. Finally got the
air-conditioner fixed today. It cost $500 and gets the temperature down to
85. I hate this stupid state.
Aug. 8th: If another wise ass cracks, 'Hot enough for
you today?' I'm going to strangle him. Damn heat. By
the time I get to work the radiator is boiling over,
my clothes are soaking wet, and I smell like baked cat!!
Aug. 9th: Tried to run some errands after work. Wore shorts, and when I sat
on the seats in the car, I
thought my ass was on fire. I lost 2 layers of flesh
and all the hair on the back of my legs and ass. Now
my car smells like burnt hair, fried ass, and baked
cat.
Aug 10th: The weather report might as well be a damn recording. Hot and
sunny. Hot and sunny. Hot and sunny. It's been too hot to do shit for 2
damn months and the weatherman says it might really warm up next week. Doesn
t it ever rain in this damn desert? Water rationing will be next, so my
$1700 worth of cactus will just dry u p and blow over. Even the cactus can
t live in this damn heat.
Aug. 14th: Welcome to HELL! Temperature got to 115
today. Forgot to crack the window and blew the damn
windshield of the car. The installer came to fix it
and said, "Hot enough for you today?" My sister had
to spend $1500 to bail me out of jail. Freaking
Nevada. What kind of a sick demented idiot would want to live here?? Will write later to let you know how the trial goes
