I'm so Stupid!
Yesterday the heat was over a hundred degrees. The heat index was even higher. I knew this.
I took some friends to the pool later in the afternoon. We had a grand time! I was in the water from 2:30 to 4:PM. Got some sun. Not too bad.
I forgot something, I forgot to hydrate.
In that kind heat a failure to drink the requied liquids is dagerous. A fact that was was brought home about 3:AM. I had a heat headache and I my tounge felt dryer than beef jerky.
I am so stupid! I really didn't think the fact the concrete was hotter than the fires of Mordor was a reason to worry. I was IN the water. No way I could dehydrate. Right? Oh SO wrong!
My condition needed water and lots of it. It took a long while but I finally started feeling better.
That is a hard way to learn an important lesson. If the people around me are to be believed it is the only way I learn.
