Like a big, sweaty, suffocating hug.
Sep. 3rd, 2011 07:18 pmUgh. St. Louis muscled up and gave us a day with 100+ degree heat and oppressive humidity.
I'm not 25 anymore, True Believers.
And what's odd is that the black Kimono and the leather corset didn't make me hotter. Really. Taking off the corset upped my core temperature almost instantly. Weird. Taking off the kimono outdoors was awful.
We were smart: Ate a big breakfast, put on sunscreen, wore hats, hydrated intensely. I was looking at people with sweat standing out on their skin everywhere we went. The humidity was so high that the sweat didn't do its job, just made you feel hotter.
After taking care of some business, I threw in the towel and said, "I wanna go home. I don't want to walk to the other side of the gardens and see the Japanese Garden. I want to go home and shower."
My roommate graciously agreed, so we went and got cupcakes, ate some lunch, and passed out for a two hour nap. Ugh.
Feeling more human after food, a nap, and a shower, I'm heading out for the birthday/too-po-to-go party at the House of Party.
With melons. Heh.
