Tonight felt like a Friday night. Maybe it was the rental car that threw me off. W took me to Sears to buy an airconditioner (that looks nice as one word!). J helped me install it. The pieces-parts wouldn't fit together right so I taped the damn thing in the window so now my room looks like a crack den. I should just cover the rest of the window with tinfoil for maximum effect. No matter, I'm no longer covered in rivers of my own sweat so all is well. J made a fantastic pizza and we ate our first meal together as roommates, Donovan's Greatest Hits playing softly in the background and thunder cracking outside. It sounded like a rainforest. My favorite track is Hurdy Gurdy Man.
