7. Sending good vibes to him... that almost happened to me on Monday.
It was 103 degrees here at our house in San Diego, with so much humidity it felt like a steambath. You couldn't breathe without inhaling the heat. Oddly, my 88 year old mother wasn't all that bothered by it, but I was miserable, with a pouding headache and my skin was hot. We don't have any air conditioning, just fans, but finally we decided to go to the neighborhood Starbucks because it is airconditioned. Unfortunately the place was full of those "Starbucks zombies" who sit there for hours staring at their laptop screens or have their homework spread out on a table. There was no place for us to sit, and nobody moved or even looked at us. It did feel good standing in there for a few minutes anyway, as we waited for our drinks. We had to sit outside in the brutal heat and humidity. I don't know how I made it through last weekend; it was like that all weekend, day and night. 114 degrees in Casa de Oro, only 4 miles from here. Fortunately today was much, much better. We'll say prayers for your best friend's brother.
