man, seriously. i've been drinking beck's like WATER these days, which wouldn't be so bad except that it's a hell of a lot more expensive than water. we've got some rain here, at least. which just means it's about 5º cooler and 100% humid instead of 85%... at least we haven't gone above 90. yet. it's not like we're that far away from you, either.

sometimes i wonder how i survived 18 years of my life with no a/c in a south-facing bedroom. just out of curiosity, have you ever had heatstroke?
