moisture, how i miss thee.
i remember when my skin didn’t flake off all the time. when lotion wasn’t very important to me. when “knuckle cracking” only meant making noise with my fingers.
i take long showers. it’s like i need the saturation. good thing water doesn’t cost as much as gas (yet).
but there are some good things about dryness. it’s a tradeoff. there aren’t as many bugs. specifically: mosquitoes. those blood-sucking bastards with their west nile shit can kiss my ass. they will find no standing water to lay eggs in around here.
i also never feel “sticky.” my t-shirts stay loose and don’t attach to my skin. i like that part. it also makes the heat more comfortable.
and the last thing i’ve noticed: it takes longer for opened stuff to get stale. i have a big box of cheez-it with the bag only loosely closed and it’s still fresh even after a couple months. cookies don’t get all sogged out. bread doesn’t mold up as fast. it rocks.
Ya gotta love lack of moisture. Do you guys have a limited amount of water you can use. When I went to New Mexico Gabe told me that some years you get fined huge amounts if you use to much water.
i haven’t heard of any limits.
