Too Long; Didn't Read
I had just got home from work. The traffic wasn’t too bad but the air conditioning in my car didn’t seem to help fight off the 100 degree heatwave. During that long, sweaty drive I imagined melting into my couch with an icy lemonade and letting my air conditioned house bring me back to reality. I had waited, no, dreamed of this moment since 4pm, when my shift ended. Pulling my car into the drive way, I nearly forgot to put it in park before bolting into my house. I opened the door, eager for the chilly embrace of finally being home. Unfortunately, that was not the case. While I was away my HVAC unit had given up the ghost and my once chilly oasis had turned into a hot and sweaty green house.
