I was waiting for the bus the other day with a dozen other people. It was 5 in the afternoon, 104 degrees and (of course) sunny. So we all lurked in the shade close to the building entrance.

The bus finally appeared, up the street, and the folks waiting slowly lurched into the bright sun toward the actual bus stop 50 feet away. I think it would have made a great zombie scene.

Only instead of yelling “braiiiins” we would all be saying “air conditioniiiiiiing”

And if you were wondering if it’s hot enough here, we keep having water mains break because the ground is crunchy and shifting. Today the main next to my bus stop broke, so I got to walk about a half mile (in the 104 degree heat, ha) since they altered the bus route to miss the construction.

Also? Touchdown Cowboys.
