What is this?!?!

I woke up late this morning. It's been really busy lately and last night I gave up the ghost and crashed. When I woke up I was kind of confused, not really sure what day it was, not sure if I needed to get up and then... then I realized there was this odd sensation on my face. Come to think of it, there was this odd presence in the room. Even my hair took notice. What was this??? Was I sick? Did I have a fever? I felt almost sweaty and my hair felt about 3 times bigger than it has for the past few month. I also noticed that I did not feel like someone had shoved cornflakes up my nostrils while I slept.

Aha! It's moisture! It's the return of humidity! It rained ALL day yesterday. It rained overnight. It was still raining a bit this morning. On top of it, it was 55 blessed degrees when I got up. I wiped the sleep from my eyes, looked in the mirror and saw a face that was not feverish, but a face that had been reunited with humidity.

I know I'll be cursing this humidity in a matter of months. I'll be cursing it as my hair starts wrapping like a vine around the nearest support. I'll be cursing it when there is no point to drying off once getting out of the shower. I'll be cursing it when it feels as if we're living in a dog's mouth, but for now... yes, for now, it feels wonderful.

My atmosphere has been rehydrated and all is right with the world.

Go See Him FIRST!!!
