Out of the Blue

[Jul 22, 2011, 10:42 am ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

MrsBlue and I are currently working through a disagreement over whether to get a portable air conditioner. For ten years now we've been able to get by with only one AC unit, which is up in my office, relying on the high ceilings, ceiling fans, and other elements that keep the house bearable in the summer. This current heatwave has finally got me willing to give in on this, but as has been repeatedly demonstrated, my willpower pales in comparison with my better half's as she is remaining stubbornly steadfast in her refusal to consider this.

No offense, but what is with people from Minnesota thinking their weather is so unique? It was 94 here the past few days with a heat index of 105. If you beat that, it wasn't by much. xXBatmanXx wrote on Jul 23, 2011, 07:02: Minnesota has been the most miserable out of the whole world (not joking) the last 2 weeks. We have had humidity and dew points heat index, etc higher than anywhere else. It literally felt like you were walking around in water up to your neck. My Central Air AC went out last month, and i just got it fixed. I also have 2 window units to keep up with the heat to cut the humidity out of the air. It is insane - so I actually know what Blue's house feels like....as mine was just like that WITHOUT THE WINDOW UNIT!
