The last couple of days the forecast has been for DC to hit 100 degrees, but we kept falling short. But it was as if Mother Nature was just being a big tease, showing us a hint of skin here, a feel of her bosum there, and only letting us get as far as 99.

Today she finally allowed us to s-l-i-d-e into home, and gave us 100 for the first time since 2002.

I don't know about anyone else, but I need a cold shower.
