 | 04:28 pm - Pleasant Surprise In preparation for what looks to be a week of utterly insane (ie mid 90s to low 100s) temperatures, we ordered a 2nd air conditioner. The one downside of this house is that it lacks the exceptionally useful heatsink of an upstairs apartment inhabited by other people, and so it is less cool than the last two places we've lived. So, a second air conditioner is essential, and since the living room has only a very small window, the best answer was a portable air conditioner that can be moved from the living room to the bedroom and back, as the situation warrents. The only inexpensive one of these with good reviews was only available online, and since standard (free) shipping said 3-5 business days, we considered using the faster shipping, but that cost $65.00, and so we decided not to and I hoped that it would arrive by Monday, leaving me with only a day of exceptionally high temperatures. There was a knock at the door today, and when I opened the door, the air conditioner was sitting on the front step. I don't know how well it will work, but I am exceptionally pleased that it's here so unexpectedly swiftly. Current Mood: pleased

Heh--which is why we're glad we're no longer in said heatsink ;)
Enjoy the A/C! |
