First, I like your kittens in the freezer story.  I'm such a sucker 
for anything cat related.

I suppose the sickest thing we do is keep our air conditioning running 
so Lily won't melt.  She has no idea there is a heat wave here in NYC 
(it hit 103 degrees today - wow).  Although I will have to add that 
living in the heart of Manhattan in a heat wave makes you not really 
mind having to pay an astronomical Con Edison bill.  Lily looks pretty 
happy, and took a nice nap on the bed right in the line of the cool 
air.

What have I done to keep cool?  Nothing out of the ordinary - I 
imagine there are many people across the country sitting completely 
naked in their homes right now, so who's to say what's weird?
