I love sweating

...That is the conclusion I have come to after working the Astros concession stands this summer. (No, not the Houston Astros, the Greeneville Astros)

It's the kind of hot that causes sweat on every area of your body. Crevices, nooks, crannies, cracks...you get the idea. It's amazing how it can be cool outside of the booth, but you step behind the counter and BAM! Instant weight loss program. But behind the counter is nothing compared to the heat in the back where a lady has to stand to prepare the nachos, chicken sandwiches, pizza slices, etc. I helped her out last night because I feel bad standing up in the relatively cool area while she dies back there. Oh yeah, and not only is it hot back there, wear some latex gloves and your hands prune up in 4.5 seconds.

However, there is some good that comes out of this heat craziness. I got to hang out with Hunter, David, Stephen, Katie Mac, Ben, Pete, Carl, Taren, etc, etc, etc after the game! It was an awesome time. I made Hunter tell the sugar packet sagas to one of his interns - Hunter was not amused. Got my Hunter hugs before I left and made it home by 1am! haha.

I love summer time.
