As we've mentioned before, our apartment doesn't have air conditioning. It's a pretty new building, but apparently they didn't feel like air conditioning was a feature worth installing. That's pretty common here, for some reason. But, today and yesterday were among the hottest days of the year. And, since our apartment faces the afternoon sun, it has been getting pretty hot in here. What makes it worse is that my parents are in town, so we can't really spend any time here. I'm looking forward to the cooler weather over the next few days.
