Feelin' the Heat

Everyone said that March and April are the hottest months here. Yea, March was hot, but it wasn't unbearable, so I thought people were exaggerating April as well. WRONG! April is SOOOO hot. I feel like my skin is melting off when I'm in the sun, and no one leaves their house between the hours of 12 and about 4 except for the kids going to school. The thing that makes it really hot, is that it doesn't cool off at night. I would go to bed sweating and would wake-up sweating. I drink gallons of water, but hardly ever go to the bathroom because I'm sweating so much. I am glad that I do have essentially unlimited access to water so that I can shower whenever, but the heat is unrelenting. I feel like I've gone from one extreme to another. I lived in Spokane in biting cold and now am living here in melting heat. I thought I loved the heat, but now I realize why Colorado is so perfect. It has cold months, but not to cold, and hot months, but generally not too hot, and if so, only a few days. Also, there are days (mostly in the spring in fall) that are perfect - not too hot and not too cold. However - the rains have started! It rained the past two nights and hence everything has cooled off enormously. It's much more pleasant and there is much less dust. I just hope the floods are too severe ...
