I have long hair and I put it up in the heat,

but it's heavy and pulls on my head and gives

me a headache.   First World Problem?

Woke up this morning, couldn't breathe, grabbed

my inhaler, took a nice deep (as much as I could)

breath - and inhaled something that was in there!

What followed was much gagging, dry retching and

eye watering and the darn thing wouldn't come up.

So I drank a glass of water and hoped to drown it.

I still don't feel well

Off to the doctor with you, Ma Stawka, if you don't start to feel better soon. Perhaps there was a bug or something stuck in the mouth piece. This heat makes it hard to breathe so if you are still short of breath, don't stuff around.

I went outside and , luckily found no casualties, freshened up the water containers, and sprayed the budgies.

My hair is up and clothes are off. Its too bloody hot.
