There ya go - perfect.

I have a window AC that plugs in so just run a cord over to it.

I also have a larger BTU one I can use if the power stays off too long.

And lots of DVDs to watch on my TV for entertainment. Including several TV series I've never even watched before.

And a TV with a dedicated OTA antenna - so not reliant on cable.

Heck - even having a fan you can aim towards yourself helps a lot! I have plenty of those plus a cordless Ryobi fan.
