The air conditioning went out. My house is now a "sweat lodge". I understand that people pay great money for sauna treatments and the like. However, I'm not one of them.
Don't get me wrong. I prefer the hot to the cold. I just don't like it so hot that I need carrots and potatoes in my pockets.
To add insult to injury, the system needs to replaced completely. It's going to cost a wad of cash to replace. Compared to replacing an air conditioning system, it's cheaper to go to college! I would do without it if I could. Everyone in my house could stand to sweat off a few pounds anyway; particularly the baby. I just can't wrap my head around the idea of going to Brownsville to cool off.
I'm reminded of the adage, "If you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen."
I would re-write it to read, "If you can't stand the heat, then you haven't been here long enough."
