My Fingers Are Numb

And my toes are aching like they have the beginning of frost bite.

The A/C is working in my new office. Just 2 days ago it wasn't. Typical Dubai - A/C gone MAD.

I moved into the office a little over a week ago and lived for over a week without A/C. My office is on the sunny side of the building in the mornings. So, each day the heat would gradually build up to a low roast. It was uncomfortable. I felt like a Baptist church-goer as a I sat in my office fanning myself with paper fans. I was glad to hear others complain it was hot, too - otherwise I might have thought I was going through THE CHANGE.

Now, I'm afraid to mention anything. It's better this way. I have a wrap - although it clashes horribly with the shirt I'm wearing today. Maybe I'll wait a day or two and then see if there's some adjustment that can be made that doesn't send me back to square one.

If I really need some relief, I can step outside where temps are in the mid-90s these days. I was thrilled to walk a block down the street to pick up my lunch this afternoon.
