So what's new here? Well, for one, I'm roasting, like much of the northern hemisphere at the moment. My room is a perfect little toaster oven, with the sun beating down on the windows from about 5 till 8 p.m. every day. The curtains are drawn, the A/C unit is roaring, and it still feels swampy. Oh joy. *wipes brow*
Oh, and I broke the big standing fan in the kitchen. It was always in the way, and I kept tripping over the metal crossbars that support it, and they gradually got bent out of shape, and finally one day the whole thing just crashed to the floor, and now it's dead.:/ Just in time for the massive heatwave we're having.:| I could buy a new one, of course - but lugging such a huge thing around without a car is really too much of a hassle, and a smaller one isn't going to help much anyway. The waist-high tower fan I put next to my bed at night (still need it, even with the A/C running) isn't strong enough to make any difference in the kitchen - so the kitchen has basically become a no-go zone. And the bathroom is a steam-room, of course - so unless I'm taking a cool shower, I rather try not to spend too much time in there, either.
Oh, and last night I blew the power circuit, because apparently I can't have my electric kettle AND the A/C unit on at the same time.:/ ( Read more... )
As you may have gathered from the above, there isn't much going on here at the moment. I might just as well attempt another installment of the neverending 30-day meme...
