Today, we were able to switch off the lights in the apartment for a few hours only. In order to get a little exercise, I had to walk around the inside of the department store across the street. Dark and cool is suitable for an artsy
film noir but I'd rather it not be a description for my weather.
The next couple of days may get better. We do fly away from all of this soon though. We're heading for 8.6705° S latitude. That should make a lot of difference.
