heat again

today was the first day i have encountered with no rain.
it was hot.
however, not as hot as i thought it might become. maybe i am acclimating to the temperature.
there was modest cloud cover and a fairly regular breeze provided a much welcomed respite from the humidity that clings to your body.
after i dried off a little from my walk to the school, i made it through my first two classes with little noticable sweat. but after eating a little i joined harvey and some boys in football (for americans, what we call soccer is football.). despite being a great deal of fun, it was a partial mistake. my shirt hugged me like a wet sponge. my khaki pants displayed darker blotches of sweat here and there.
i walked into my next class where i was teaching teachers a little embarrassed at my appearance.
such is the heat here.
