It’s So Hot

So last night I checked the weather. It said today would be 94 degrees and the humidity up to 49%. I told myself “I still have homework to do for this class, but there is no way that I’m going to get to do this and concentrate in my apartment when I have no air conditioning”. I thought about it this morning when I woke up because I was already too hot to continue sleeping. So I packed up my stuff, woke my son up and here I am at the Bayshore marina letting my son enjoy himself in the water park they recently opened for kids while I sit by a table typing away. Hey..it beats the heat! I know that the people around me must be like “what the hell is she doing with a laptop at a water park”. It does make me look a little weird, but I don’t care really. Half the people I know already think I’m weird. So who cares. My son just walked over and said to me “so what are you writing about?” I told him that I’m writing about our day out here. He said that I should write about how he throws himself down the tube slide and how hot and refreshing the water park is. Kids say the weirdest things. He says that I should also write about how I’m doing homework on such a nice day and how bored I must be. I thought that was funny.

On another note, I have to start thinking of what to say to my son for the reason why we have to leave while it’s still day time. He going to look at me like something is wrong with me. Usually when his father brings him here he is here from opening to closing. This park closes at 6pm. If I stay here until then I will never get the rest of my homework done. I’ve got to think of a very good reason other than my homework because my son will ask me “you started doing it here why can’t you finish it here?” and when he says that I’m not going to know what to say. I can’t say “it’s distracting” because he will tell me to concentrate and to not let myself get distracted. That is easier said than done.
