I'd like to talk about some stuff that happened to me today. At about 11:30 PM, I left the house to go get my learners permit. Now when I left, it was about 89 degrees outside, which was pretty hot, but not extremely hot. Anyway, it took me over half an hour to get to the courthouse. I took the exam and got my learners permit (pauses for applause), so I decided to celebrate by getting the Yu-Gi-Oh! 2011 Starter Deck, Dawn of the Xyz. Unfortunately, the store that was nearby the courthouse did not have the deck in question, so I decided to go try the store where I usually get Yu-Gi-Oh! cards. Here is where things get stupid.
Now as I said before, it took me half an hour to walk from my house to the courthouse, and it usually takes me half an hour to walk from my house to the store where I get my cards. So I was walking under the blazing hot sun for about an hour. I should also mention that I hadn't had anything to drink for awhile. So I finally got to the store, and as one might guess, they didn't have the deck I was looking for either. So I decided, cut my loses and just bought a pack of Extreme Victory. I also took a few swigs from the drinking fountain before I left. After another half hour of walking in the hot, hot sun, I made it home. There was a second on the trip back where I thought I was going to pass out. Of course it didn't help that I had to walk up a hill with no shade. Anyway, I got back home at about 3:00 PM. After about an hour of re-hydrating and laying on the couch in the dark, I looked at the thermometer. It read 102 degrees, which was probably how hot it was during my trip back.
So, even though I got my learners permit and an ultra rare Yu-Gi-Oh! card (which I can't really use at the moment), I am currently half dead. I've almost been fried to a crisp. In fact I think I might have sunburn on my arms. So the moral of the story is; don't spend more than half an hour outside on a day where the temperature is going to be over a hundred. Thanks for reading.
