Only in Phoenix would you see a news report that is bitching about it being too hot in November.  It has been hitting 90 degrees here for about a month yes during October and November it is 90 degrees here.  I know the rest of the nation in jealous and I don’t blame them 90 degrees is perfect weather.  But here in Phoenix people are complaining that it is too hot.  I say shut the hell up, what do you people want for it to be 30 damn degrees and snow on the ground in the middle of a desert?  If you want snow move to freaking Canada I hear they have a lot of it up there.  I wouldn’t know for sure because I choose to live in a desert.  It was my choice just like it was the choice of the people who are complaining.  What part of it’s a desert didn’t you understand before packed up the Uhaul and moved all of your worldly belongings to Phoenix?

Don’t get me wrong in the middle of August when it has been over 110 degrees for 20 straight days I start complaining, but not in November when I can wear shorts to mow my green lawn.  One of these days I may choose to move to the mountains and shovel snow but not today when the weather just couldn’t get any more perfect.  In fact I think I will make myself a nice glass of iced tea and go sit on my back patio for a while.
