Dehydration is not your friend.

When I woke up this morning, I couldn't blink well because my eyeballs were crunchy.

I pee yellow instead of the usual clear.

I can play tic-tac-toe on my thighs because my skin is so dry I can draw with my fingernails and have it stay.

It's not horridly cold, but nippy. We play heater tag, sometimes on, sometimes off. It makes the house stuffy. Yuck.

I have avoided going to gym at night when I get the car back because I can't find my long leggings and the wind makes me crazy. At the gym, it's so hot and stuffy and a million time grosser than normal. Nyergh.

A warm front will come and we will be back in shorts and then another cold front and everyone will yank out the sweaters again. Yeesh. Thank goodness there is no snow. But this Florida weather makes me irritable. Be one or the other, not swinging back and forth! I'm from Panama dammit. I need lots of humidity! Grr.

There is a strawberry tube of chapstick in the bathroom, in the car, on the nightstand by the bed, and in the foyer. Why don't they put it on strings like those pens you can wear around your neck?

I found them just now the bag I took to Wisconsin in March. They are in the dryer -- one pair of capri-length spandex. The rest are hole-y and dying.

Maybe I can get around to fitness now that I won't freeze?

I am thinking about going to Belz Factory Outlet to price clothing. I need new play clothes, what brands do I buy? For all kinds of weather and then for biking.

My sneaks are not far behind, they are showing wear and tear. Bet my sports bras are next.

Who has the money for all this?

I've been carrying a bottle of water around all day. I blink again and my eyeballs still sound like velcro. Blah.
