Yes, it is true that it will be hot and humid from May through September. Okay, I am good with that. I can tolerate heat much, much better than cold. I am simply a cold wimp. I accept that about myself.
What I do find funny is the lengths that people will go to describe how horrid it is to live in their city. I am not just talking about Houston ("Oh, just wait till the summer. You will be miserable"), I am talking about Chicago ("There is nothing colder than when the wind - which never stops - blows off of the lake") or Kansas City ("It is over one hundred degrees in the summer and zero degrees in the winter") or anywhere else that I have lived.
We all have our trying times during the year. I know myself and I know that I am just tickled pink to be here. I will be hot this summer and I will sweat a lot. But by the same token, I will be walking around in shorts in February when my brother (who lives in Ohio) will be bundled up and complaining about the 17 inches of snow and ice.
...yeah, I got it pretty good.
