About a week ago, just like summer clockwork, our air conditioning pooped out during the biggest heatwaves of the summer. It’s all about timing right? In at least 4 instances in my life, the air conditioning has done this and that is just counting times I can remember.

It just seems to me that it would be nice for once that our air conditioning went out during the winter. You know, so when it wasn’t working, we could suffer with warmth when we actually needed it. But you know, as a bitter person, things never happen with good timing.

Also, do you think that sometimes during the summer you just go from one air conditioned room to another? As one who is not only lazy, but also a big fan of the Great Indoors, I just move from one air conditioned room at work, to my air conditioned house at home. Luckily, my car doesn’t have air conditioning, so I have those 10 minutes from work and back to suffer unimaginable heat strokes.

On to the other unimaginable pain of our Bitter Friday Giftures…

Hey Nic…

…you need to go INSIDE to get to air conditioning.

The air conditioning inside our work…

…well the keep it a tad bit low.

Sometimes…

…it is hard to concentrate on what you are trying to do.

Occasionally…

…new people will just fly in from nowhere.

You know, unwanted guests…

…that are just visiting to partake of your air conditioning.

Taking away your precious time…

…with your one true love, TV.

Eating…

…all your food.

Messing up…

…your house.

Keeping you up…

…at all hours of the night.

Spending all…

…your money.

Taking up all your…

…your vacation days.

And making you ALMOST…

…want to go back to work.

The air conditioning is a two-edged sword my friends. When it is hot outside, you just want to run inside and partake of the cool refreshing air and stop sweating for a minute. But then you step back inside and all you want to do is get out of the freezing cold in your house or cover up in a blanket. Kind of makes you mad that humans are so fragile that we can barely survive a few degree temperature change before we are either hot or cold. Why can’t we be like snakes and survive with really low body temperatures? Oh yeah, because snakes are gross and can kill you with their rattles or something.

ARRRGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH
