heat

Sooner or later all bloggers talek about weather. The weather in Toronto this summer has been absolutely awesome. The last two summers were wash-outs, so we deserved a good one. Even now, at the very end of August, temps are in the 30's (high 90's on the good old scale) But wouldn't you know it, there are people, even in this city, in this country which basically shivers for eight months of each year under the combined assault of frost, wind, snow, sleet and windchill, there are people that complain about the heat.

People: SHUT UP! Buy yourself a window A/C unit, I've seen them go for as low as $150 in June; right now, I'm sure you can get a slightly used one for next to nothing. Cool your bedroom and the rest of the time, just enjoy the sunshine, enjoy the girls in teeny dresses and flip flops, enjoy the ice cappuccinos, the dips in the lake, the longer days, the frosty pint on the patio...enjoy life! Summertime, and the living is easy.
