You know, these days, there’s air conditioning almost everywhere that you go.
There’s barely anywhere that I ever have to go that doesn’t have A/C running all through the summer.
It’s not that I’m complaining, either. I hate being hot and sweaty just as much as the next person! I love being inside in the air conditioning during the summer. As a matter of fact, last year, we completely redid our central air conditioning system and now our A/C runs better than ever. It’s so efficient at cooling our house now that our air conditioning bills have gone way down. That’s good news for me, since now I can keep the thermostat set as low as I want during the hot summer temperatures and the A/C bills stays nice and low. My husband used to complain about the air conditioning bills in the summer back before we got our new high efficiency central air conditioning unit! Anyway, I’m just glad that these days, air conditioning is very widespread. My mom says that when she was a kid, there were hardly any places at all where you could find air conditioning in the summer. She said that the bank and the movie theater had A/C, but other than that, you had to just use a fan or a ceiling fan. I would have hated that! I guess back then when you didn’t know the difference, it wouldn’t have been such a big deal to be without A/C, though. Sometimes I think I should try to go without air conditioning for a while just to prove to myself that I can live without it.
