A few months ago my two younger siblings flew down to the South where I live to hang out for a week or two.
They had both just wrapped up with college and had free time for the first time in their adult lives.
I really love my siblings, but they are both party animals. Now that I am getting a little bit holder and a little bit wiser, my party days are pretty far behind me. one day after we had dinner my next door neighbor came over and told me and my siblings up there was a block party happening tonight at someone’s house. My siblings instantly agree to come and are begging me, but the only thing that I asked my neighbor was if it was going to be air conditioning. We were in the midst of a very humid and miserable summer, and I didn’t want to hang out anywhere in town where it wasn’t going to be sufficient air conditioning. My siblings had grown up north and I never known anything different, so they could care less if there was air conditioning or not. My neighbor wasn’t sure if it was going to be a air conditioning, so I declined the offer while my two siblings ended up going. Only 30 minutes after they left for the party, they came back looking as if they were defeated. I asked them what went wrong, and they told me that the house felt like a sauna because the air conditioning unit broke as soon as the party started. I feel kind of bad that my siblings don’t have the night they wanted, but at least I have a good time sitting on the couch and drinking wine while enjoying nice and cool air conditioning.
