The heat is brutal

Tweet

It's 2:33 p.m. on Friday. The heat's brutal, 34 degrees celcius but feels like 50. I've just stepped away from work for lunch, so I'm at home waiting for the sun to ease up before heading back. Inside, I'm enjoying the breeze. Outside, it's like walking into an oven. The day's been pretty normal, a few online gigs, but offline is still dry. I reached out to the lady my sister introduced me to. I sent a message yesterday, but it didn't deliver, so I sent another one this morning. Both went through and she replied after an hour or two. She told me she's been in pain since yesterday and had to see her sister, who's a nurse. Her sister recommended some medication, which she plans to buy this afternoon. She's also traveling to Lagos this afternoon for a friend's wedding. I asked her to let me know when she arrives so I can call her, and hopefully we'll have a real catch-up. So for now, lunch first, work later, and just enjoying the cool breeze inside.
