Interesting because he I've been getting red bumps on my skin that are very itchy they occur everywhere back, leg, arms and face but until now I thought it was hives - a skin reaction to hear and pollen. But it could be Mosquitoes!!

Oh man. Couldn't imagine bedbugs, must be terrible. We eradicated them in the 1950's and for long Finland was completely bedbug-free, but they returned less than 5 years ago with exchange students, and especially student dorms have had problems with them again. Luckily the authorities are doing a lot to destroy them a lot once and for all again.

HATE warm soft drinks. For some reason they taste awful at room temperature.

I freaking hate the summer weather in the central NY area. Tons of humidity. Always either in the 80s-90s, or 50s-60s. Temprature is rarely in the 70s. It's going to peak at 93 degrees today it's going to be about the same tomarrow.

Checked the weather in LA, and it's been in the 70s all week with tons of sunshine.

If there is anyone on this thread that lives in the LA area(prefer near the coast line), can you tell me how the weather is over there?? Is it typically in the 70s during the summer?? Does it get really hot where it's 85+ degrees/humid for a few days and drops down to 50-60s after?

Relatives brought bedbugs to my parent's house. They hthe Only in one bedroom, but a bedbug sniffing dog picked up something (connections of parent's from work, so it was easy to ask) so they did some cleaning (dry on sheets on high for example). Seems to have worked might have only been a bedbug egg. This is an entertaining read:

Same thing. The only difference is that Jakarta have a dry season. Similar temperature and dew points. 30-33c highs, 25-27c lows & 22-27c dew points.

Tokyo's summer peak is in August. But the monsoon really does bug me. Infrequent heavy rains but light showers can last for the whole day. Now the dew point is still in the low 20s.

And to answer your question, I was born and raised in Indonesia. My mum is Sundanese while my dad is Javenese (although being raised in Bandung made him act more like a Sundanese than a Javanese).

We had two code blacks at work yesterday with the second one being the most frightening. There were a couple of tornadoes that touched down not far from the hospital and at night. It was most unusual. I was stuck in a room with one of my patients with my back inches away from a large window. The tornado sirens were going off and I was convinced that any minute a piece of debris was going to come crashing through the window and kill us both, or the relentless lightening was going to electrocute me. It was a very violent storm.The sun will come out tomorrow. Oh wait it is tomorrow and yes it's sunny.
