Abusive weather
I'm the guy who likes it warm rather than cold--I'd rather endure today's predicted 97 than our more typical 27--but today is a tough one. Interestingly, very cold and very warm have a similar effect on my breathing. I have asthma, and today I can't draw a full breath. Fortunately, my awesome wife has picked up my new inhaler, so if I survive until I get home, I'll get some relief.
I have the first verse of Think Tree's wonderfully catchy and depressing environmental song "Hire a Bird" going through my head:
The sun will burn a hole right through
your parasols
The clouds so sick they've split in two
from aerosols
The air will fill your lungs with fists
for every breath
In future days when life exists
to mirror death
(my version is from memory--there may be minor errors)
It's available on iTunes, and in my opinion, very much worth the 99 cents. Do yourself a favor and buy "Memory Protect," as well.
