summer has arrived, and it’s feeling sticky. it’s also usually more humid and stuffy whenever there are thunderstorms in the forecast. we haven’t been able to install our air-conditioning unit yet, and so in desperation i discovered a new way to help feel cool today; sucking on sore throat menthol lozenges.
Huh.
… I’d been using gum. I’ll have to try that one.
and then take a sip of water while sucking the lozenge… refreshing.
any particular brand/flavour of gum?
RICOLA… I hear it caaaaalllling me…
I have been fond of the Orbitz Mint flavours lately, which include Raspberry and Mojito (Lime). I have, uh, also been fond of the option that goes “get up to office drop off stuff and head straight for coffee kiosk for iced coffee,” which is even more refreshing but not nearly so portable.
that sucks. hey send some of that warmth over here. it freaking looks like november outside this week.
you may also want to try walking around the house naked. that should be cooling. just ask joe. he used to do it all the time when we were roommates. um. i know what you’re thinking. and no.
Just had our air conditioner installed yesterday… much better.
