Dog Night

It's that time of the summer when I struggle with whether or not to put the air conditioner in the window. Not sleeping much tonight due to the heat and humidity. July is almost done, however. Someone said it'll get close to 100 degrees today though. The Earth, in theory, would prefer it if I didn't. I'm already running a fan and the dehumidifier. Remember last summer (was it?), when everything turned green with mildew?

Headache, reflux, the electronic jolt and tingle of a pinched nerve. Let the minutes roll by. The season. This life.
