But I'll try the beer idea! Because let's face it, beer is my remedy for just about anything.

(They sell this magic substance in Wenatchee, on account of it being mostly sunny here even in the winter. I could totally send you some for Sarah!); and 2) Beer. When it gets too hot you should drink icy cold beer. It is magic! I have two summer survival tips for you: 1) Sunscreen.

I will welcome the heat, but once it hits a hundred you can bet I'll be kvetching like everyone else.

At the same time, I bet you're glad to have a break from having week after week of it never getting above freezing. Ha ha, well I imagine Chicago gets pretty muggy in the summer.

But when it's just in the 80s? (which is about how warm it has to get before I hear complaints, or at least I did when I worked in an office and had to field complaints who thought the weren't getting enough air conditioning.)
