My parents lived in a small apartment in downtown Dallas for 4 years (I was born there- Dallas that is - not the apartment), long before AC was common. They moved there in early August. They had one small ceiling fan. My mom still remembers my dad getting up all hours of the night to stick his head in the refridgerator. Not terribly helpful but better than his other solution - sprinkling water on the sheets.
AC blasting all night = my drug. My apartment is smaller than my previous one, so even with the constant AC, my bill is never over $40 a month. If that changes, I'll have to use the freezer method
