Heat and humidity

The humid air drapes over my shoulders with a tangible weight, soft and wet and heavy. I feel listless and cranky. Delia is leaning on my chair, her little nose sweaty. My office is the hottest room in the house, and I am tired of the heat's oppression, the difficulty breathing, the clammy and uncomfortable feeling. There is a pollution alert in the Cities today; it has been going on for several days. There is no sign that the heat will break soon.

I do not want to cook dinner. I do not want to go to karate. I do not want to do anything that I am supposed to do.

We have a window air conditioner in the girls' room. We have an overhead ceiling fan in our room. Lately, that just hasn't seemed like enough.

*Sigh* I am really fed up with this.
