Since I am up at 4am due to the excessive humid-heat here in NYC, I figured I should write a new post.
The difference between East Coast-heat and West Coast heat is the humidity. An 80-degrees day in NYC is about as hot, or hotter, than a 102 degrees day in California simply because you sweat, and it stays on you even after multiple showers.
I've always wondered if I've lost a few pounds from being a constant, walking, living, breathing sauna.
Tonight it is 85 degrees indoors and too warm for me to sleep. It really sucks to not have air conditioning... or access to air conditioning. I am now realizing what a privilege it has been to have A/C in California. It's true what people say, that you always appreciate what you took for granted.
I am living in a house share with no air conditioning and I am too poor to move to a place with it. Anyone has any suggestions on how to get through the sticky NYC summer? I have 2 fans blasting 24/7 in my room and ice cold water in the fridge.
Or would anyone would like to donate to my Portable A/C fund?

How much do those cost? I saw one in a friend's apartment and it is a massive device. I can only assume that it will cost you in electricity as well.
I told you we would donate a unit for you, just tell us what you want!
