Jolene: I’m sweating like a pig.
When is this heat wave going to end?
Eric: I’ve no idea, but I’m not moving a
muscle until it does. Hand me that
pitcher of iced tea, would you?
Jolene: Get it yourself. I’m not moving until it
drops below 80 degrees.
Eric: It’s not the temperature. It’s
the humidity. It’s not even the
dog days of summer yet and it’s
scorching outside.
Jolene: It’s scorching inside, too. Why can’t
that fan move any faster?
Remind me why we moved into an
apartment with no air conditioner?
Eric: We couldn’t afford an apartment with an
air conditioner. We were lucky to get this
place.
Jolene: I don’t feel so lucky right now. My legs
are stuck to this chair and I’ve
sweated through my clothes.
Eric: We could buy a portable air
conditioner.
Jolene: We can?
Eric: Yeah, but you’d have to get up.
Jolene: Ugh, let’s do it tomorrow.
