HA!

I meant to post on this last week: one of The Three-Toed Sloth's hilarious blog entries about how she keeps cool in her apartment, or tries desperately to do so, sans air conditioning. For instance:

After everything you own is in the freezer, you should have a popsicle or go get an Italian ice from a pizza place (I waited for the sun to go down before doing this - those vanilla chip ices are INCREDIBLE! Just like chocolate chip ice cream but without the dairy! For serious! I'd like to wear a pair of pants made out of Italian ice!). This will temporarily take care of your body's meaty core.

At least an hour before you're ready to go to bed, take sleeping pills. My preferred brand is Tylenol Simply Sleep, because it doesn't have the menacing brand image of the "real" sleeping pills on the market. If I took "real" sleeping pills I'd probably convince myself I was a prescription drug addict or something. But anyway, if you don't take sleeping pills, there's no way you're getting to sleep in this heat. And swallowing the pills is a good opportunity to have a glass of water that's mostly ice cubes.
