Air Supply

For the past week, the air conditioning unit has been broken in our trailer. For those who have never lived in a trailer, they are essentially metal boxes. Which means that in the middle of the day, when it's 98 degrees outside in Mississippi, it can easily be 105-110 inside the trailer, thanks to the properties of convection. There were times during the middle of the day when I had to leave and cool off by going outside, to stress the point further. Worse still, even when the day had cooled off outside, the trailer still held the heat from the day, so sleeping wasn't too much fun either.

Hence why I haven't posted- doing anything is miserable enough in the heat, but trying to get my Internet to work while sweating buckets is laborious indeed, so I gave up and just shut the thing off.

We bought a small window unit to help us survive in the interim, but all that succeeded in doing was allowing us to cool off if we sat mere inches from it on a constant basis- which is pretty much what we did for a few days there. That and drink a lot of water.

On the bright side, the air was fixed today and now it's working better than ever. Hopefully, it'll be years before we have another problem with it.
