summer in the city

You know it's summertime in the Capital when...

  • You wake your spouse up by exclaiming, "Honey it's a cool one today. The high is only supposed to be 100!"
  • Even the cows fight for a spot in the shade in the park and the mosquitoes have given up completely.
  • You cook your dinner in the early morning because otherwise you melt.
  • You look forward to your nightly cold shower.
  • You think, it's almost June. Time for my bi-annual de-worming pill.
  • Your friendly neighborhood ice cream wallah isn't open during the afternoon because, "It's too hot for ice cream."
  • Locals wear watermelon hats.
What should I add to the list?

Wow, how happy are you that you'll only be in your 1st and 2nd trimesters during the heat!? Imagine the sweat when you've got a full grown human being inside you!
