What's it like to be hot, all the time? You constantly drink water and feel thirsty afterward, watching the sweat bead up on unexpected places like the back of your hand, and never feel like you need to go to the bathroom. You wear as little clothing as possible, bathe two or three times a day just to feel normal, and seek out even the slightest breeze. You stick to anything and everything, avoid putting your hand on the paper you're writing and the couch you're sitting on. You dream of air conditioning, ice cold sodas, ice cream, and winter. You go to bed, soak the sheets, then wake up and already feel drained. You speak and sweat more; you move and sweat more. You do stupid things like complain about the heat and forget what day it is. You find dozens of cockroaches, flies, mosquitoes, and all other manner of beasts. At noon, everything is asleep for two hours.
Peace
