too hot to live

So last night at bedtime it was 85 degrees upstairs in our house. That is not comfortable for sleeping. Aside from leaving the air conditioner on downstairs (downstairs is where it lives) and pointing a fan up the stairs, all we could do in that situation was not go to sleep. So we stayed awake until we fell asleep, which I guess is the usual way of doing things, but in this case we proceded with the two steps in a somewhat more deliberate manner. We had some very intellectual discussion, I can assure you: it ranged from sociology to Sarte. Maybe that makes up for the fact that our evening's entertainment also included a Lifetime original movie.

Today, though, it rained like it's never rained before, so sleeping tonight shouldn't be nearly as bad.
