Heat + Humidity = Horrifying Hair
Whoever predicted it was going to be a 75 degrees today with rain all day is an idiot. Or maybe I'm the idiot. I went out wearing one of my winter pants, a light sweater, closed shoes with dress socks (blue...it looked black this morning) AND a spring jacket. I was already feeling iffy this morning. It didn't feel as cool as I thought. But I figured it wouldn't get much hotter (because of the weather prediction on weatherchannel.com) and it'd probably be cold on the bus and subways. I felt fine on the bus and on the whole train ride to work.
Come lunchtime, I go out sans jacket and it feels like a wet blanket outside. The sun's out and the heat is up. 75 degrees? It was a high of 86 degrees today! It was freaking HOT! I had to meet Wei and Marc in Chinatown and the walk was less than comfortable. My feet were hot. I wore closed shoes because I actually believed the weather report when it said that it would rain. Ugh...disregarding my inappropriate clothes, it was nasty outside. And my HAIR! Frizzing up everywhere. I don't think I can wait until Shanghai to get my hair straightened. I think I'm gonna have to do it soon. Stupid hair. Stupid weather. Stupid weatherman! or weatherperson. I can't wait til the weekend. Please please let the predictions be wrong all over again and let it be nice and hot and dry.
