7. It's 38 C (100F) out there today, and no, my house has no air conditioning.

Blm, if you're reading this, baby blm's room was downstairs, so it is about 15° C cooler than outside, but it is kind of sweltering out there once we leave the house. German summers used to be considered hot if they made it to 30° C (86° F). I can only imagine what it's like down in Spain. Actually, if I get the green light, I'll find out next week.

I called down to my offices in Paris and Geneva, and they are really suffering down there.
