Air conditioning is for whimps

Yes.  The air conditioning is out in my car and it's been a warm week...

I must say, there is something very exhilarating about driving around in such beautiful weather, having the wind blow your hair all over the place and sweating from parts of your body that you just don't want to admit have sweat glands.

I'm being serious.  I really think it is exhilarating!

It brings back childhood memories.  My parents didn't have a car with air conditioning until I was in high school.  I remember when we got that car, I thought, "now this just isn't right."  There was something special about being the kind of family that didn't give in to the luxuries of life.  We knew how to really live - be one with the elements... Yeah.  There was just something wrong with driving around with the windows rolled up on a beautiful day.  Just wrong...

I'm really not in a rush to get the air fixed.  We'll see if that changes when summer comes along (I'd imagine I'll have it fixed by then), but for now - there's just something about it that makes me smile.  I've noticed other cars that have their windows down too.  I wonder if that's by choice or if their air conditioning is out too?  Since my window's down, I think maybe I'll yell across traffic and ask someone.  I'll let you know how that goes.
