I hate to be pushy seeing as you two obviously have lives of your own to lead … but when are we going to see all these other Thesauruses in books that we can buy and keep on our shelves and take to bed every night????

I know some of them are not as long as your original Positive/Negative Trait Thesauruses but perhaps you could combine two or three together into a book. Or just publish them as slimmer volumes. I know I for one would buy every single one of them!

Thanks so much!

Don’t forget sinus torture! There isn’t enough bottled water and chap stick in the world for some of our blasted So. Cal heat waves.

Whenever I think of heat waves in film there are two movies that come to mind: Spike Lee’s Do The Right Thing, where the summer temperatures mirror the psychological boil that’s coming to a head in all the characters; and Body Heat: sexual misadventures in sweaty south Florida.

Good post. I will refer back to this, this month as my current mg is set in the heat of the summer!

So true! I don’t think I use weather nearly as much as I could.

Great post, Becca! I could practically feel the heat radiating from it. Whew!

P.S. I second Matthew's comment. :)

I love it that you include the mood, symbolism and cliches with these entries. 🙂

I tell you, with WINTER breathing down our necks here in Calgary...I could SO USE A HEAT WAVE right now. I think Becca and I should switch houses for a few months every year!

My least favorite weather is the
heat wave. Lol. Of course, I don't
care for the cold either. I guess I
just like the temps mild. Sigh. That
time of years almost gone here.

Awesome! I could use a heat wave right about now! Great job with this.
