Right now...

Right now, someone somewhere in the universe is going swimming because it is too hot to do anything else. I know this person. She hates swimming almost as much as I do. She told me that there is nothing else to do because its 94 degrees and when you live on a beach in Brazil and its summer vacation and its 94 degrees you go swimming. That’s what she said. I told her I sit in front of the air conditioner and she said hers broke and that’s when I knew that karma was on my side. My other friend was pretty happy too because it just snowed in Germany and they don’t have snow days unless the snow is heavy enough to break the roof. She said it isn’t there yet but hopefully by next snow the roof will break and they will have their first snow day in years. They have hot days not snow days because schools there don’t have air conditioning just like the houses in Brazil. So someone, somewhere on a beach in Brazil is going swimming with her friends and someone somewhere else in a small snowy town in Germany is praying for her school’s roof to cave in so she can have a snow day and practice for the play. Crazy enough they are jealous of me who has no (realistic) hope of beach or snow and is doing make up work. They told me that they would do anything to go to America (stress on the French sounding “rrr”) and I told them that they were crazy to which they replied with their favorite american phrase that I was “bull shit”. So right now, three different friends, in three different countries and sometimes three different languages are having a conversation.
