Yeah, last time I stepped outside, it was steamy!
That was not a pleasant experience... I heard a lot of noise outside and went to the window only to hear something crash up against it. It was a Pit Bull!! And he was mad. And my kitty was under the truck. The dog ran over to the truck and started barking... and he didn't sound friendly or playful! I knew better than to go outside so after assessing the situation, I started hitting the door, which made a gunshot-kind of sound. The dogs left! Whew! A few minutes later, pun'kin came in quite shaken. I think he's under the bed now... poor thing.

Woah Michelle, now that's scary! Also, I hope that both you and Lisa have good A/C to cool down as well.

Poor kitty!!! That's horrible!!!!!!!!!!!!
We've got AC (you don't live in FL - or the south, for that matter) without it. Whether it cools it off properly is another story. We run the AC in January at times.

Yeah, VERY scary! As far as I know, that's his first encounter with hungry dogs. I think I'm going to keep him in for a while.

After this, I don't think he's going to want to go outside for a while.
Any idea where the came from - in the neighborhood or surrounding area?

I am glad that you all have A/C! I saw some at Best Buy earlier. The prices weren't too bad per say, however if I get one it will likely be a heavy duty model.
And as far as Pum'kin, I am sure he will want to stay in for a while after that ordeal!

Mike - in the south, nearly everyone has central AC - it's built into the houses. Only older homes have window units. To cool my house (which is NOT big by any means) would take at least 6 units. Window units are impractical down here. For places that barely need AC, they are fine, but when you're trying to cool an entire house, they don't work.

Why didn't you eat much? (Eating's important!)

I dunno about AC's being everywhere in the South. There are homes in GA that do not have AC. Some have fans... that is not a state I visit in the heat of summer, though.
AC's are essential down here right now but I can attest that not everyone uses them. This is why I wear VERY comfortable clothes to work.  Some of the homes I visit do not have AC... and I do my best to visit them in the mornings.
Good thinking, Michelle - yeah, I know not everyone has them - I just cannot live without one - I would truly be unable to function.

Because I had a late lunch and had already snacked on something earlier so I wasn't very hungry at all. I just blame it all to poor eating habits!

, now mind you I'm very glad for the thing since I've been stationed in the South but.... The weather guy was on the other day and was totally shocked that other cooling systems exist, he just came back from vacation and was trying to explain a swamp cooler to everyone. He didn't sound too convinced they work in low-humidity climates. 
, this humidity thing kills me too, black out during PT for lack of breathable air.
