fenchurchI thought I could make it until the sun went down, but no dice...
Not that it's horribly hot out or anything, but once it gets above 70 outside with actual sunshine, it generally climbs above 80 inside the house, which is just way too hot for me. This particular "feature" of our house is great during the fall and winter (when it can easily get into the 70s in the house when it's sunny outside, without the heater kicking in), but not so much once we hit late spring or summer.
I'm kinda wishing I'd given in to the temptation of AC about three hours earlier, rather than retreating to the basement, because it's taking forever to cool down, and neither of us want to go upstairs at the moment.
And yes, I can hear![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Which means I've finally warmed up after being drenched to the skin at Sandpoint on Saturday.
Julia, nothing like being stuck in stop-and-go traffic, in soaking wet clothing.
