    I’d like to see how a dry heat compares because I’ve always heard it was better. This past week where I’m at in the states has been terrible, triple digit heat (I think it was 102 on Wednesday) with super high humidity and ridiculous UV levels; the air is thick and like a blanket wrapped around your head the moment you walk outside. Nights have been upper 70’s-low 80’s, I know it could be worse (thank god for a pool and AC), but this is way hotter than when I grew up.

      after dying in greater vancouver region one summer some decade ago, I went to nevada and pet some donkeys or something. The degrees were higher but I wasn’t dripping with sweat like in vancouver. The real rain in raincouver was my sweat all along! Actually though its so gross. People regularly ask if I’m crying and if I need to take a break. One of the jobs in the past a customer actually called a manager to ask for them to give me an extra break for working so hard in the heat. I was fine, just looked like I pissed myself, then did a handstand and pissed myself again.
