a short whine

i've been reliving my vietnam trip as i upload and annotate my photos i took there into my flickr account. i've promised myself that i will finish this set before i go to syria and generate a whole other bunch of photos to organize.

i also think i'm having flashbacks to that trip because it feels like vietnam now in the philly area. it's really exactly the same as in hanoi: hot muggy days with a daily torrential downpour which never seems to break the heat. god, i really hate this time of year. i think i'm the only person who spends his entire summers hoping for an early blizzard.

if i'm gonna be this hot and uncomfortable at the very least i should be on vacation, bumming around the ruins of some ancient civilization. but no. it's just hot and sticky for no good reason.
