This is Texas after all, so getting into the car is necessarily a sticky situation no mater where we are.  For instance, this morning I got up early and got ready for my doctor appointment.  I remembered my sunglasses, my purse, my coffee and my money.  Armed with these very necessary accoutrement's, I grabbed the car keys and walked out the side door.
I was pleasantly surprised as I stepped out into the great wide world.  Even though the sky was gray and cloudy, I had expected to be hit with a standing in the shade temperature of 85.  Instead there was a soft, cool breeze and the air was merely warm.
I opened the car door and stepped back, expecting a wave of unbearable, scorching heat.  I frowned when the familiar blast didn't whistle past my forehead.  I threw my purse inside, still not daring to touch the seats, and again was surprised because the air inside the car felt cool.  I put my hand inside to test the waters.  Shrugged my shoulders prosaically and happily climbed into the car.  I didn't burn my shoulders on the back of the seat.  I snuggled into the leather which I hadn't done since February, turned the car on and was greeted by a blast from the air conditioner.  I turned it off, rolled down my window, opened the moon roof and enjoyed a mild drive.
