As I was looking at my handy-dandy iGoogle weather forecast I noticed something peculiar.

A cactus appeared on Saturday’s forecast, which calls for 99 degrees. I’ve never seen a cactus in Wenatchee (but hey, I’m new to these parts) but I guess a sighting of the rare Wenatchee cactus means the mercury will be in the triple digits soon, which unfortunately isn’t to my liking.

Strangely I found myself taking a little bit of offense to my personalized Google page rubbing my nose in the fact the next few days are going to be filled with weather I don’t like.

So listen up iGoogle, I know we live in dry, arid conditions out here, but you don’t have to go rubbing it in by making it seem like we’re in the middle of a desert. Geez.
