as long as possible

I was talking to my friend Lora today and said something along the lines of, "it is HOT in our house! We are going to wait as long as possible to turn the air on though." Well apparently "as long as possible" meant about 4 hours. Within 3 minutes of Sean being home from work, the air was on. I think we're the only people in our neighborhood whose air conditioning is on. We are such weenies. Seriously though, Tate was sweating so bad and Sean looked at the temp in our house and it was like 85 degrees. That is just too hot for us! The open windows didn't even give any relief today although I'm sure they would have this evening. Sean insisted on turning it on and I wasn't going to argue. I'm sure it'll be off in a day or 2 once this mini heat wave blows through! :)
