Air Conditioning... etc.
So it's finally breaking the upper 30's - 100's to you farenheighters, though as noted before temperature makes little difference in humidity like this - and we finally broke down and turned on our air conditioner. It's not that we were being stingy or trying to tough it out; we would have broke down a week ago, but the A/C can only be turned on by remote & neither of us could find the stupid thing. It eventually turned up on top of the A/C unit itself, a good seven and a half feet off the ground and hidden nicely from view. Guess I'll take the blame for that. Now if only we could get this thing to cool more than one room, it'd be perfect. As is, we now have a nice little escape pod from the insanity.
In other, completely unrelated, news: tonight we're going to meet the new ALT Julie for the first time. Guess we'll show her around a bit & then get some grub. We also rented RIZE and i'm psyched to check it out. It's good to have entertainment on hand while battling heatstroke.
