I went running this morning with my son, and felt like I was breathing through a wet sponge. The air felt like if we added .000001% more humidity, we'd be under water. Did you happen to take an unwanted detour through the hotel pool?

I smile, and then freeze, as I snatch a glance at my watch. You froze in the thick, humid summer air? Dude, you need to wear a hat or something. :-) snip I shiver, and move on. Damn, time flies. See. The air was cold. That is why it was thick. :-) Kind of like people who can't see past a metaphor without being pedantic. ;-) Yeah, time flies.
