Is it hot enough for you?

Is it hot enought for you? When did we go from winter to summer? I have to admit I was looking forward to spring. It's my favorite season, but summer...heat and humidity? Not my favorite unless I'm lying in a swimming pool with a pina colada in my hand (the Bicardi cooler variety is fine with me too).

My AC works at least 16 hours (it's a window unit with a 'energy saver' feature to conserve energy and maintain a certain temperature). My poor Shamu lies on the floor (and that's WITH AC...). I'm surprised I haven't found her taking a shower yet to keep cool.

My neighbours who do not have AC...well they spend their evenings outside in the courtyard between the two buildings. Thankfully the AC drowns out the noise otherwise I wouldn't be able to sleep and would be extremely grouchy come the morning.

My car...my poor 15 year old car's AC is NOT working. Needless to say that I'm extremely uncomfortable by the time I reach my destination especially in the evening. I have relearned the trick of putting my hand out and directing the airflow towards me while driving (not an easy thing to do with a standard car and traffic coming against me...), but it works occasionally.

Oh well I'm sure to remember this next January and February when I'm wishing it was a little warmer....

Whatever!
