I appear to have burned my ears.
Oddly enough they don’t hurt at all.
I also came down with a nasty case of heatstroke or similar yesterday after walking around Auckland without drinking enough water (or, as evidenced above, wearing a big floppy hat). I couldn’t work out what was going on until I realised it was like having a bad hangover without the fun part beforehand. In other words, major dehydration in the brain department.
New Zealand tricks you this way. It might be hot but the wind keeps the ambient temperature down. Meanwhile the lack of ozone layer means the sun fries your ass.
Lesson learned!
Oh, man, I did that this past summer. The best is when giant chunks of skin fall out of your ear area and you forget because, hey, it doesn’t hurt there.
“What the holy oh god what what?”
