During our no-AC-heat-wave the other week, I was extra cranky. Which meant I ate a lot of chocolate.
Starting with a chocolate leftover from Valentine’s Day:
Make someone melt today.
I had to lick the wrapper clean because the chocolate was melty.
Obviously, I got someone else’s chocolate because I was the one who was melting. Jerks….
Annoyed that the chocolate wronged me, I bought popsicles. Worried that they may have melted the second I walked inside, I shoved them in the freezer to refreeze before partaking.
To kill time, I ate another melty chocolate, which said, “Happiness never decreases by being shared.”
Whoa. Maybe that first chocolate was mine. Now I had two choices:
- Hoard all of the popsicles and make someone melt today. Bwahahahaha!
- Share the popsicles and their freezy goodness.
So I shared the popsicles with my coworkers. After all, the box had 12. So 9 lucky coworkers got popsicles. Yes, I had 3. Don’t judge.

3 is the exactly correct number of appropriate popsicles during an unseasonable heat wave. Carry on . . .

Have you tried 3 of Carl Jr’s pop-tart ice cream sandwiches yet? Also sounds pretty good for those steamy days

There are Pop-Tart ice cream sandwiches?

In my opinion at least one Popsicle per hour is mandatory in a heat wave emergency!

Three is good…safe amount to hoard for yourself.

Is “Hot as balls” a commonly used WordPress tag? Do you get a lot of readers searching for that? Just asking cuz I’ll be adding it to MY tag arsenal.

I get a buttload of searches for that! Also…I’m totally adding “buttload” as a tag.
Really I just use the tags as a creative outlet.

Ooooh! Thank you for reminding me, I have a brownie in the freezer!

My summer cooling-off treat is a Freeze-Pop. Can definitely take care of 2-3 at a sitting.

It’s supposed to snow tonight at my house, with a high of 37 overnight. So, I’ll trade you some of that heat for some of my cold. Heck, I’ll even throw in a little frost. C’mon, all the cool kids are doing it.

I’d feel sorry for you, but I’m amongst the many who are still bitching about all the snow we got last week. So no sympathy here. I’d give my left tit for heat right now.

This makes me sad because there’s still snow on the ground here. I only wish we had a heat wave.

Maybe it is just me and my mind wandering (sinking) into the gutter but group Popsicle eating could make things hotter 🙂

But you DIDN’T eat 12 popsicles – which is the main point.
