I hate hot weather. When it’s over 80 degrees, I do not discuss: the books I’ve recently read, music, films, politics. I don’t even have the will to gossip. Instead, I say things like: “What’s the heat index today…it feels hotter than 82!” “Did you happen to hear what the low temperature will be tonight?” “What’s the five-day forecast?” or, simply, “I’M HOT!” If I see a candle burning during summer, I cringe and am convinced the heat emanating from the flickering flame is making the temperature rise.
