Still roasting?
Aug. 7th, 2003 01:28 pmStill hot, though breezier than yesterday. All in all a little less painful.
Decided that, at 90 degrees, jeans were a little much for the rather physical job I do. Wore shorts instead, and got disbelieveing stares and many comments of "You have legs...??" from the people at work.
Yes, astoundingly I have legs, they're those pasty white things that I walk around on...
So they teased me all morning but by lunchtime were sweating to death and green with jealousy about the fact that, frankly, when it's this hot I just don't care what people think of my legs.
Come to think of it, I don't care anyway, I quite like my legs, but this is beside the point. Basically I was cooler, they were hot, they were jealous because none of them like to wear shorts in public.
Personally, I think they're stupid. But hey, we all knew that anyway. My co-workers are not renowned for their intellects.
So that's it. I'm surviving better today and I finally shook the really unpleasant heat-headache last night by balancing a wet cloth full of ice cubes on my head.
I looked stupid, but in the privacy of my room who gives a damn so long as it works.
