How hot is it?

Hot enough for Mr. Nag to install the air conditioners today. It has to get pretty damned hot before he does this yearly task. (We don't have central air because our very old house doesn't have insulation and the second floor where we sleep would not get cool.)
Hot enough for Max to drink his water "on the rocks".
Hot enough that everyone in town (except me) turned on their air conditioning yesterday causing power outages. I'd made reservations at the Golf Club for lunch but that restaurant and every other in town closed their kitchens. My friend and I had to drive out of town along the Niagara Parkway but it worked out well - we had a charming full tea at McFarland House.
Hot enough for me to feel all sweaty and strangely puffy. The good news is my lips look like they've had a restylane injection. The bad news is my eyes look like two pissholes in the snow.
