It was hot, hotter than it had been in my memory At 21, admittedly that isn't really that far of a stretch back, but that didn't change my desire to cut the heat with a cold beverage। As i walked into my appartment, i realized i hadn't turned on my A/C when i had awoken that morning, it hadn't been that cold when i left No matter, there was always water. I noticed the empty britta pitcher on the table, it hadn't been filled and put back into the fridge the night before.

I cracked the freezer and let the cold air waft over me, my first chance at relief that day. I had spent the morning out dropping off applications for summer jobs. It had been pretty unsuccessful, seeing as they usually hire summer workers before the last week in june. The car only got hotter when i had to roll the windows up so i could answer a call from my mother. She wanted to know why i wasn't registered for classes yet, they had gotten a letter from SLU wondering if i would be returning in the fall. I realized my gas gauge was low and pulled into the only gas station i could find on that side of town, i wasnt sure if i was going to be able to get back to campus with what i had left in the tank. It was about a dime higher a gallon than i had seen earlier in the day, but c'est la vie, ya know?

I finally reached into the freezer and pulled out an ice-tray. It was empty, so i grabbed the other one. It was also empty. I must have forgotten to refill it, i must not have planned too far ahead.
