Hot...so very hot...for the third straight day, we've got humidex and smog advisories, it's supposed to be at least 35 degrees (not including the humidity) and my apartment couldn't be hotter. I set up my little key chain thermometre before I left for work this morning, and I can just about guarantee it'll be hotter inside than it is outside. I got absolutely no sleep last night, not even a few minutes because I was just so damn hot. I had my fan going full steam, my windows open (well, as open as they can be seeing as I've only got one real screen and with the other temporary screen I can't have the window open too wide or else the kitty would escape) but I was still sweating buckets all night long. Stupid Southwestern Ontario. But relief MAY be in sight - Gary (yes Heathy, Chair Gary/sports guy) told me this morning his mother recently got central air and now has at least two window a/c thingies that she needs to get rid of. There's no guarantee they'll fit my windows, and since I'm getting new windows by August, there's even less of a guarantee, but I'm willing to try anything. Gary said "It might get kind of chilly, I hope you don't mind." Hell, I'd pay big bucks for a freaking blizzard right now, anything to not be so hot!

Poor roby.

You get smog advisories in teensy little Chatham? Does it blow over from Detroit, or what?

Over from Detroit and down from Sarnia. When they say this is the armpit of Canada, they mean it!
