It's a cliche, I know, but it's so freak'n true. It's not the heat, it's the humidity. So would it please stop already?

It's not really all that hot. Highs are topping in the low-mid 80's in the city. Maybe 83 at most yesterday. But the humidity was hovering around 99% all day. It was living in one big steam bath. I couldn't breathe on the subways, and I could barely tolerate being at home. Thank goodness for central air at the office, or I might really have run away to Canada.
