When my friend invited me over to her friends house for BBQ and swimming in the lake, I was excited.
It has been so warm the past few weeks that I thought this would be a lot of fun.
However, I didn’t take a change of clothes because I figured that I would just dry off in about an hour sitting outside. After we swam in the lake for about an hour, everyone headed inside to change. It was then that I discovered that we would not be sitting outside. We would be sitting inside while the host just ran outside every now and then to check on the BBQ. So I was wet and wrapped in a towel in the cold, air conditioned house. I was freezing. I guess I could have sat outside alone but I didn’t really want to do that. Instead I just toughed it out and wished that I had brought dry clothes. The host was very nice and offered me some of her clean clothes but I declined. Seeing my condition, she talked about her HVAC system and how she had bought one for a house twice the size of hers because she is always hot and likes to run the air conditioning year around. The reason the BBQ party was being held indoors was because she couldn’t imagine sitting out in the heat all day. We all had a good laugh about it. Surprisingly, I was invited back. Next time, I will definitely pack a change of clothes. I could get used to air conditioned BBQ parties.
