      The first time I ever went to Albuquerque it was in the middle of July. Every day I was there was over 100 degrees. Being outdoors felt like being in an oven, and the inside of my car felt like a blast furnace, but all the businesses had their AC cranked up to arctic temperatures. My whole experience of being there was moving back and forth between absolutely roasting and completely freezing with basically no in between. It was extremely uncomfortable. This was almost 20 years ago, and to this day I don’t think I’ve ever been so hot and so cold so many times in the same day.
