The plaza around work is going. and because of the new barrier wall, we only get glimpses of any attractive construction workers, not that I need such distractions in my life.
All my resolve about not running the air conditioner too much this year is vanishing in the face of the swampy solar onslaught. My apartment is a surprisingly efficient heat trap, leaving me gasping when I arrive home in the evening. I’m pretty sure that next year will be the time to upgrade the front unit, since I’ve had it for about five years and cleaning the filter has produced some improvement but not all that much.
I always say that I love steamy New York Summer Streets, but that’s the catch – I like it out on the streets where we can sit around drink Ballantine Ale and chat, not in my bed with me where I spend the evening wringing out my pillows and wishing that I had more layers of covers so that I could toss them off of me to get some relief.
