HEAD IN THE FREEZER
Here is an excerpt from an entry I posted in July 2oo2 that still applies today, especially in this hot weather:
I don't know what you guys do to stay cool during these hot summer days, but I know I have the ultimate answer: sticking your head all the way into the freezer. I've been doing this since I was a kid and look how good I turned out!?! Err, nevermind.
Now granted some freezers are better than others, but most shoot the cold
air right toward your head if you open the door up wide and stick your head in
deep. And just keep it there for a while.
The best freezers are the ones with the baking soda in it so they don't
smell. Instead, all you get is that clean smell of cold air hitting your face.
It's almost like lying down in a field covered with snow as you make snow
angels.
All I know is, after putting my head in the freezer, I feel refreshed and
ready to go. And no amount of swimming, drinking a cold drink, or fanning myself can match that feeling!
In the 6 years since posting this, I've gotten pretty good at pretending to be looking at the merchandise in the freezer section of stores so I can specifically put my head in the freezer for a prolonged period of time. But by far, the best place on a hot summer day is that room in Costco where they keep the fruits and vegetables. When it's hot and I can't sleep at night, I honestly fall asleep dreaming of that room!
