Melty? Noooo, it's not THAT hot yet!

Okay, so it's 36 degrees Celsius, with 47% humidity, which APPARENTLY calculates to 47 degrees Celsius on the "Humidex"/"Feels Like" scale.

Somehow I don't believe that.

Anyways, it's kind of warm here, which most people will agree with. Can anybody tell me WHY, exactly, I feel like going BACK outside and going blading some more? I bladed home from work today, in these exact temperatures, and was so sweaty that I couldn't tell where the water stopped (I sprayed my face once I got to the apartment building, and the water ran down my front) and the sweat began.

In slightly related news, last night I stepped outside to lock up the store at 9 PM, and it felt like I stepped into a tropical jungle with dense, dense foliage overhead, blocking the light. It had just rained, and everything was wet, but the rain hadn't cooled anything off, so it was 28 degrees with 90% humidity. The Weather Network site a) says it didn't rain (THEN WHY WAS EVERYTHING WET??) and b) says it only felt like 36 degrees. It's 36 degrees now, and it felt hotter than this. Blargh.

So now we see why I want my own weather station.

(As a point of reference, it's warm enough that my desk feels like a solid living thing.)

In other news, my back has been screaming at me since I woke up. Whee ineffective pain relief drugs! I need a massage. Those seem to be the only thing that works.
