...with my air cooler. Seriously. I want to marry it and have its babies.
I didn't expect it to cool down the room because it was seriously hot in there - and it didn't, really, but I've had it pointing at me all night and I've actually slept! At one point I woke up and had to turn it down because it was a bit too cool blowing on me (as opposed to the previous night where I had the fan blasting at me on 'high' and I was still waking up constantly feeling all sweaty and fevered).
The other good thing is that it doesn't use nearly as much water as I feared. It has an 8 litre tank and after running constantly, although at various speeds, from 7pm last night to 9.30am today the tank is still half full.
This is true love...

I am glad to hear it has been such as success.
Do you think your babies will look like their dad or you? ;)
LOL, Girl, you crack me up!
It gets hot out here in the summer too and we only have one small AC unit that cools 1/2 the downstairs. I'd love to get a portable one.
Glad you got some sleep. That's what makes it possible to keep going.
Melissa - it's not an air conditioner; it's just an evaporative cooler. A lot cheaper and more economical to run, and pretty good for a small area. I did some research on portable air cons and it seems they're not hugely effective. Or maybe that's just what I wanted to believe since I can't afford one anyway... :)
I am so glad! All week I've been worrying about the whole SE corner of the continent, feeling helpless because there's nothing I can do!! And us up here with an AC that we haven't needed to turn on for days now. I am suffering from survivor guilt.
