Dry Dry Dry

Okay. I have concluded that dry weather is not me friendly.

Between occasional nosebleeds, clogged up sinuses, constant sniffing and panting, and eyes and nose burning, I can say with full certainty, this petite body of mine was not built for the desert. Today the relative humidity is 4%, yup, four. In case you missed that, FOUR!! I didn't even know it could go this low. I doubt humidity in Beirut ever went below 50 or 60%. I would invest in a humidifier if I weren't moving in a couple in few months.

In any case, I was reduced last night to taking my ironing water sprayer and spraying water into the air all over my little studio and I did it again today. Well, I adjusted my A/C since predictably it feels colder even at the same temperature. But hey, I think it's working because I haven't sniffed or panted much today and, miracle of all miracles, I can BREATHE THROUGH MY NOSE.
