10.) All that sweating = unintentional weight loss
9.) Everyday feels like you are camping
8.) Showering takes on a whole new level of amazement
7.) You get a better understanding of the feral cat problem in your neighborhood based on listening to those amorous cats at 3am

4.) All of a sudden, 97 degrees doesn't seem so hot. It's the pending 112-degree forecast that makes you (blessedly) break out into a cold sweat.
3.) You develop an entirely new vocabulary as a result of speaking to each repair man. You start to feel really smart. "The compressor is grounded and the capacitor is operating at an 80+5x440. Are we looking at an 18 SEER or 13? And tell me about your AFEUs..."
2.) You have a new thing to wish on your worst enemy.
