I do pay for water. Was worried about taking a cold shower because then I would be even more alert and would have a harder time settling down…but then realized I wasn't settling down anyway, so… I ended up just laying a towel on my bed and rubbing ice cubes all over…and that felt absolutely incredible. Then, was worried I would be too alert from that but then a soft rain came in and both calmed me and cooled the air coming in through the windows and I was finally able to sleep.

The maintenance guys just came and fixed my AC here, but since I am going to my sister's and will stay upstairs in her house (where it is much hotter), I will still need all of these suggestions. Thanks so much! You all are amazing!!!
