 Thursday night we went out for food for the first time in 15 months. Sushi! OM NOM NOM SUSHI at our favorite place, Moshi Moshi in Ballard. Yes, let me eat raw fish, tempura avocado, and have a tasty Adult Beverage. It was glorious.

So as I'm sure many of you know, the PNW is having a heat wave over the weekend. The PNW, which generally doesn't have AC and also doesn't have the infrastructure in place to deal with super-high temperatures. The projected high for Monday is 108

On Saturday we're visiting friends who actually do have a heat pump and central air. What is our household going to do for Sunday and Monday? Who knows. Drink water, make sure we're getting extra electrolytes, and cover ourselves with ice packs.
The personally crappy parts of this:
  • Dad and his ladylove were going to come visit on Sunday, but we've all agreed that we should postpone.
  • High temps are a massive migraine trigger for me. I'm going to do everything preventative that I can, but I've already warned my co-workers that there's a chance I may be out sick on Monday. 
The Stroppy One grabbed Sodastream carbonation canisters (we were out) so we have a steady supply of cold fizzy water, I've infused rose and rosemary/lavender waters to add to fizzy water, and we're going to (hopefully) grab a few bags of ice tomorrow so we can set up swamp coolers. And I've already apologized to Vlad and Erzabet that they're going to be assaulted with damp washcloths off and on. 

This is going to SUCK.
