I’m up, but I don’t feel like I’m suffering from insomnia or anything else. I’m just up. I could have rolled over and fallen asleep quickly, but I wanted to finish Spook Country, and do this. So I’m up.
I was reminded, when I got up, of how much I generally dislike air conditioning. So many implementations involve rudely blowing cold air on a person. Here in this house, this is definitely the case. Case in point. Standing in the bathroom and emptying my bladder at 3AM, it is morally WRONG to have cold air blasting onto the top of my head. Just plain wrong. In my mind, air conditioning should be about subtly changing the ambient temperature of a room, not about directly attacking you with bursts of cold air. I don’t like in houses, and I don’t like it in cars. I certainly understand the need for it, to prevent us from being cooked in our shells on hot days. I just think the implementation is all wrong in most cases.
Even worst I have a vent right in FRONT of the toilet. The stress I my life, at the time, liked pointing the fan ON HIGH directly at the bed.
