You know you are in Miami during the summertime when:

[wildmiami]

The best parking place is determined by shade instead of distance.

Hot water now comes out of both taps.

You can make sun tea instantly.

You learn that a seat belt buckle makes a pretty good branding iron.

The temperature drops below 95 and you feel a little chilly.

You discover that in July it only takes 2 fingers to steer your car.

You discover that you can get sunburned through your car window.

You actually burn your hand opening the car door.

You break into a sweat the instant you step outside at 7:30 a.m.

Your biggest bicycle wreck fear is, "What if I get knocked out and end up

lying on the pavement and cook to death?"

You realize that asphalt has a liquid state.

The birds have to use pot holders to pull worms out of the ground.

The potatoes cook underground, so all you have to do is pull one out and add

butter, salt, and pepper.

Farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice to keep them from laying

hard-boiled eggs.

The cows are giving evaporated milk.

And my personal favorite....

The trees are whistling for the dogs.

You gotta watch those shade trees, though. At Dadeland Mall, if you park under the trees in that parking lot, the birds crap ALL OVER your car. It's unbelievable. I made that mistake once. Never again.

And it's so true about breaking into a swear the instant you step outside. I will break into a sweat unless I remain *completely* still. Any little movement and I will start to perspire.

i have the worse case of driving arm i've ever had, the worse part about it is that when i got to school, the sun is hitting my left hand, and when i'm coming back the sun again is hitting my left hand, i need to get tints in my car.

it's still cold up here in NYC so some 90 degree weather would suit me just fine right about now. Last time i was there i DID look for a parking space with some sort of shade! LOL!
