Pucker up, Buttercup!

Buenos Aires, temperature yesterday, a balmy 35 with a relative humidity of 99.9. Basically, it was like swimming in boiling water all day. With temperatures like these, there are 2 constants, the first being pretty much the worst thing ever, the second being a definite relief. The first constant is having to kiss hello sweaty, old, fat, greasy, sweaty, young, old people. I have adjusted to the normal kiss hello, but when you include the layer of sweat and grease induced by the above daily temperature, dammit, no one should have to go through that. They need to adopt a handshake for the summer. The second constant, the relief constant, are huge deluges at night. I woke up at 330 in the morning to this:
...the best part is, it's only spring, and everyone keeps telling me, 'wait until it gets really hot.'
