That was in Colorado, barely over 100 if I remember right (given, significantly higher up). Its routinely pushing 110-115+ here in AZ. If it's in the low 100s or the 90s its like "O.O zomg its a miracle" during the summer, and the summer out here is about... 9 months long.

Pretty sure if you're in the country I think you are, then all you hear at christmas is drunken laughter. As with all of our holidays, it's just a reason to get pissed with family. I <3 you Australia. Although our winter this year is feeling a lot like summer -.-
Don't tell me you're aboard that Tasmanian-like island to the east of us, which vaguely resembles a dump I did yesterday?
I've lived in Fl for 11 years and its not bad at all. Never does it get over 105. Humidity sucks if you live inland but I leave near the coast and its usually always windy and hardly over 100. That does sound like a bad job but at least you have one.
