No more boobsweat!
Guess what I did this morning? I picked up my car from the dealership after having it serviced for my trip to Auburn tomorrow. And guess what they did while it was there? They recharged my air-conditioning! I have no idea what that means – but there is now cold air coming from the vent cooling my sweating armpits. (Sexy!) So, I don’t care if it means they sacrificed virgins to the gods of freon, I now have a working a/c unit in my car.
This is also good since I’m pregnant (saying that is still very weird) and since I tend to produce 12 times as much sweat as normal when pregnant. Those of you here when I was pregnant with NikkiZ will remember that my car didn’t have a/c then either – and it was not a pretty thing. A 9-month pregnant woman making a 30 minute commute in the dead of summer without air-conditioning makes for a very smelly body. Now, should this pregnancy proceed as planned, I can get as hot as I want because the cold air from the vents in my car will cool me off. I might even be able to achieve that “cute” pregnant look that is hard to reach when sweat marks cover your crotch and ass. (More of The Sexy!)
They also did a few other things to my car, making it safe to head south tomorrow to pick up LilZ and see my sister-in-law. I’m really excited about this trip, but not excited about getting in my car at 3am to drive 300 miles. That part I could do without.
But at least, if I choose, I can be really cold while I’m driving. And for that? I’d drive twice the distance. All Hail Air-Conditioning.
Hope you have a good trip to Auburn..They say it is actually going to be cooler. I’ll believe that when I see it.
War Eagle!
Have a good (cool) trip Zoot!
Have a safe journey.
whoo hoo!! yeah!! AC working is good. Just in time for the cooler weather.
We did the freon in my truck this summer too unfortunately for me there is a leak and I am now running out of cool air. BUT it made it through the summer and now I can wait until next year to fix the $1200 problem.
Have a safe trip!!
Have a cool, comfortable trip.
You’re taking your lap top, right?
all hail the end of boob sweat and swamp ass! wheeee!
Oh, air conditioning.
My old car didn’t have air conditioning. When I bought it, I thought, “I’m only going to use it 4 months out of the year anyways. Why bother.”
Yeah. The new one has air conditioning. Its a requirement in any major purchase now. The house has central air, which is uncommon here.
Yay for air conditioning. I cannot imagine not having air conditioning in my car! I’m so glad you got yours back. Have a great and safe trip!
While you’re in Auburn can you look for a donut shop? My BIL is a physics Ph.D candidate at Auburn and would like a donut.

Thanks! You’re the best.
Have a safe (and “cool”) trip!
Ever since I became a mom, my sweat production has increased. I wonder if I could make a graph for that, but then, that might be gross.
Have fun in Auburn! I was just in Auburn this past weekend and had a good time visiting my Grandma. Wareagle!
Yeah, for no more boob sweat! I feel you on the driving thing though..sucks sometimes. I have to do it too. Have fun!
War Eagle!
What are you heading to “the plains” for?
Oops, sorry. Didn’t see the last sentence about picking up LilZ.
Man, I’m so jealous! Because when Mother Nature decided to play a cruel joke and make it 90 degrees in early October in Chicago, I was WISHING I had gotten my a/c re-charged one last time this “summer.”
Thankfully it IS Chicago. Which means it will be in the 40s tonight.
Have a safe, chilly, boob sweat-free trip!
Wooo! AC is so awesome, man. I know when the AC in my piece of crap car finally konks out, I am going to cry. And sweat.
Hmm to man posting about donuts… Auburn is one of the few towns in the world where Krisy Kreme did not survive.
It was there back in the mid-80s on the NW corner of Glenn and Dean before KK got all famous outside of the south.
Zoot have fun on the plains… War Eagle.
dude. you are weird.
woooohoooo wish my crap van had AC, lol. But sadly I have none so I use the poor mans version…an open window.
I don’t sweat, I “Glisten”.
So, um, I “Glistened” BUCKETS during my last pregnancy and it never went the freak away.
I’m in heaven with the new, over the counter prescription deodorants (Certain Dri, Secret and Degree all have them).
No more “Glistening”.
Yay.
Zoot I was out of town when you announced the big news, but I am catching up on my blogs and wanted to say a big congrats on the pregnancy!
FYI?
YOU LOOK TOTALLY HOT!
On a less stalkerish-sounding note, I am looking forward to the twenty-first.
Um, wait.
That was still stalker-ish.
I sorta promise not to hug the ever-livin-crap-outta-you.
Still not good.
I will behave.
Ok, I’m new here, so you should know I can be quite a smart-ass. But, Hon, just you wait down the road a long ways until you’re in menopause! I won’t mention how your body smell changes to something well foreign? Not human, anyways. It happens to men, too.
i was in dubai this june with my bro where the temp goes up to 50degree centrigrade and the a/c in his car conked off.. trust me, i know what a diff it can make to have a ‘cool’ car. enjoy the ride, play some blaring music..
And….. I thank you and the Gods..
