Due to having heat but not central air where I live.
You have a window unit, though, don't you?
I would spontaneously combust without a/c of some sort. I am a delicate fleur.
Oh, Pacey! You blind idiot. Can't you see she doesn't love you?

Yeah, I'm definitely most grateful to have a full-time desk job in the summer!
Me too! I've worked on highway crews during the summer and it was not fun for someone like who doesn't do heat well anyhow. Setting a survey marker in a Kansas cornfield during a day with 115 degree heat index would literally make me sick.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You have a window unit, though, don't you?
I do, but only in my bedroom, and I only use it when I'm in bed. I am a cheap and/or hearty Yankee.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
Yes, I am a huge fan of AC. My apartment has central air, and it's on the bottom floor, surrounded on three sides by trees and a building. I do not envy my upstairs neighbor her summer power bill.
I've lived around here for nearly 26 years. You'd think I'd be use to it.

During the brief time I lived in an apartment building I was able to make it through winter with my heat completely turned off. The other units warmed my place enough for someone like me who likes the cold.

I have a shrine to Willis Carrier.
I was never any good in the heat, to the point of fainting a number of times in my youth, before I was old enough to insist that I was not going to stand in the heat. Now I'm on medication that causes hot flashes. One virtue in living in the South is that it's the land of central air.

The Folklife Festival has started; one of the featured cultures/countries is Wales. I can't help wondering if there's going to be any Tom Jones involvement ... he IS Welsh, isn't he?

Our corporate cafeteria had an outdoor BBQ today. I got ribs and OMG am I stuffed. Sooooo, good. I wish I had sat outside to eat, it was so beautiful outside.
