In the US "semester" is usually half a school year. >.>
And over here it means not having to work

And it starts tomorrah!

Ugh! Work is such a tedious bore. Why would anyone waste their time with such mundane distractions when one could be taking in a gallery, museum or theatre. Life is too short to bother with ‘work’.

But then you don't get the pleasure of getting up early in the morning! Or being tired all the time! Or doing stuff you don't really care about! Or - Yeah I see your point.

You’re too hot?
We had this last year….roasting heat, you sweat just sitting still right?
I have a solution for you.
If you can’t cool the house down….cool yourself down!
This works:
1. Stop moving about.
2. Strip off and lie down
3. Mist your body head to toe with a plant sprayer filled with water
4. Set a desk cooling fan or similar, to gently blow over you evaporating the water off your body.
It will cool you right down.
The fan is usually more than you need…the spraying alone is normally enough.

This is a great idea, but I think that spraying yourself while lying down works about as well as casting spells while lying down. You need someone else to do the spaying!
Alternatively take a bath infused with Refined Frost Salts.

Well, all I can say is I have never had a problem spraying/misting over myself. Doesn’t have to be a plant sprayer…any spray bottle will do once cleaned out and filled with plain water. Plus you don’t have to lie down for it to work of course…I just meant to be relaxed. So an armchair or recliner would do. Even while watching tv.
If someone else sprays you with cool water…it comes as a shock and a sharp intake of breath….amusing though it is attacking each other with water sprayers (It’s a hoot).
The essential point is wetting your skin so the evaporation cools you. A fan speeds it up, but can get just too cold…

A down vote just means someone's jelli of my wonderful collection. Also....indeed MOOOOOOOOOOOORE

!!!
Actually I'm in the home stretch on getting both Wave 1 and 2 Collected! Wave 1 is finished with Scare Glow, Wave 2 just needs Clamp Champ, Roboto, Fisto and Zodac. There's also a flesh colored Evil Lyn that I might get as well as the Origin's version of the Wind Raider.
Now if only Mattel will release MOTU Origins Horde members

Aw Saki hon, I never thought it would get so hot at your latitude.
I am sat indoors, windows open and it’s been a pleasant 24C all day. In fact oddly this time of year Southern England usually has your current temps.
Humidity says: 65
Hope it gets nicer for you soon….Of course in six months you’ll be knee deep in snow

I could use something like that. Hell, even quarter inch wire mesh. I need airflow and can't let the cat out so we never open our door.

Our house came with old screening. I took out the old screens and purchased some collapsible window screens to replace them. They have worked out great. I'm sure they must have something similar in other countries too.
This is similar to the screens I bought:

I've always said the only thing that'll kill wow is wow itself.
No king rules forever, but I sure as hell don't want it to be FFXIV.
The community is being ruined by the newcomers acting like Californian moving to Texas. They're demanding the game be more like what they just left, and they're acting like they do there.
14 has always had a more tight knit community that's more polite and tolerant to its own fault(you legit can't remove a trash player from your group even if they're holding back hard raid boss kills out of fear of getting reported for harassment).
Hell, this is the game where players wil report you for suggesting they use certain spells....
WoW players are just making it worse. I'm afraid of what's happening on the JP servers. Their culture clashes with the west to begin with.

They play the game differently than we do. They're very much a get in, get it done, respect others' time type. They use a tool that lets you manually from groups for practice runs, so that when you use the automated matchmaking service, you already know what you're doing and not wasting people's time.
In the West, it's the exact opposite, and you don't recommend the matchmaking for hard content, like the Japanese do.
They hate that Australian players play on their data centers too, because they play like Americans and not Japanese, don't speak Japanese, and just culture clash, but they won't say anything, they're too polite to.
It's kinda funny.
