Fact: I am 49 years old.
Fact: Today, for the second day in a row, it was 38 degrees Celcius outside -- with 90 odd percent humidity and virtually no wind.
Fact: I am no longer capable of standing still and not sweating profusely.
Fact: I am too old for this hell.
Observation: If I could find a way to avoid the outdoors, I would stay inside 100% of the time until November.
Fact: I am not joking.
Reality check: My husband doesn't understand my problem and is planning a big hike for a week from now.
Wishful thinking: I am trying to figure out how to catch a communicable disease before next week's hike from hell.
Unfortunate realization: the wishful thinking isn't going that well.
Even more unfortunate realization: a plane ticket to the South Pole would solve my problem .... but might create a new problem.
Bottom line: Wake me up when November comes (apologies to Green Day)
38?? Is that all? It hit 44 degrees in Nicosia, Cyprus today! Luckily I am in Halifax, where the daytime high was a mere 22!
ReplyDeleteI fully sympathize with you Kendall. I HATE summers in Cyprus! This is part of the reason I escape to Canada every couple of years...
Photos.
I do not even comprehend 44 in this context. Stay safely in Halifax .... for a while. I'll call you when it cools down.
