Brain Dead
I feel so terribly brain dead. Yesterday I couldn’t think of a blog topic; and today, all I can think of to write about is being — brain dead!
I think it’s partly the heat. At 5:00 am, it was already about 80 degrees; and when I got off work, it was close to 90 degrees! Even with a bottle of water at hand, I got very heated up on the way home; and I was wearing shorts and a short sleeved blouse!
I don’t leave the window units running when I’m away all day at work; and on a blazing sunny day, this place really heats up! Of course it takes a while for those units to really cool off the place; and until they do, I have to keep a piece of cardboard within reach, so I can fan myself.
I’m getting very tired, too. The cat-sitting will continue for about 11 more days; and while it’s not difficult work, it takes time. That’s hard when I have so many other things I must do. It makes me feel especially frazzled in the morning, when I have to get to work.
Tomorrow will be another scorcher; and this is only June! July and August are likely to be even worse; and September is hot, too. It has me dreaming of cooling cloths.
I wonder whether Grand Tour riders use anything of the sort. The pics I’ve seen don’t look like it; and those riders surely need a bit of relief from the heat. I don’t want them to go brain dead from overheating!
