It's about 2200, and it's still almost 90 outside

This last week or so has been fairly nasty. High for the last few days was 107, mostly days the last bit have been at or over 100 and the humidity is high enough to make it even more miserable. God knows how the troops handle 120's with all the armor and gear, and the humidity in much of the region.

One of the nasty things about this? Last couple of years I've had it forced on my attention that I can't handle this kind of heat very well any more. I'm not having the level of trouble Kim does, but where I used to go out and sweat and as long as I drank enough I was fine, now I work a while and then have to find some shade or a cool place to drink and rest.

This getting old stuff sucks.
