Not talking about Jazz blues... but Monday blues here. Yep, its that time of the week again. Wanted so much to call in sick today, and just sloth at home, maybe get my place ready for winter. Temperatures are dropping steadily but surely.
Today I wore my lightest coat out... a grey trench coat bought in Korea (I think it cost ~SGD$80, cheap hor?). Trenches are great, they shield you from the winds and yet they are light enough for autumn/early winter. The other coats are still in storage.. need to take them out soon, as well as the rest of my winter wear. If only the temperatures will remain as it is for a bit longer.. u know, stretch out the autumn period. It's a comfortable 22-25C today... but everyday the temperature drop 1-2C. At the rate this is going... a week from now... it will be 15-18C.. yikes! This is not a good optimal working temperature for my body. My body works best in the high 20Cs...and it goes into hibernation mode under 10C. When there is a cold front out here, temperatures can dip steeply to 3-5C.. gawd, and you wouldn't want to to be caught outside in those weather... bitterly cold, windy, damp *shudder*
p.s my grey trech looks very much like this, down to the detailing on its sleeves and pockets .. in light grey:
Note to self:
Plan (in priority )
- bring out that thick wool blanket tonight.
- bring out the long sleeve tops/cardigans
- buy more winter wear? :P
- bring out the rest of the winter coats/scarfs/gloves
- bring out the heaters / self-heating thermal packs
