When I took my morning pills today, I remembered that I had run out of antihistamine a few days ago. I decided to quickly run out to the store before work and get some more.
Daytime temperatures have been slowly increasing over the last few weeks, but starting yesterday, we've begun to get the first actual humidity of the year. I've lived in humid places my entire life, and I'm more than used to it by now. Mornings with a mild temperature and moderate humidity are especially pleasant to me.
When I went into the office, I would sometimes stop at a filling station and get a doughnut during my commute, but I very rarely went to a store. These days I almost never go out in the morning--even on the weekends I tend to stay home in the mornings and do errands in the afternoon. The only time I tend to go out to stores or similar places in the morning is when I'm on vacation. Indeed, the morning jaunt had a strong holiday feel.
My wife and I had planned to visit Walt Disney World in September of 2020. We've each visited the parks twice before, the second time for our honeymoon. Of course we had to cancel the 2020 trip due to COVID-19, but ever since then, we have been pining to return to that escape in a hot, humid Florida swamp.
I think my desire to travel is what gives the humid morning air such a vacation vibe. It makes me think of the trips I've taken all over the country and around the world, and it reminds me of my desires to start again.
