Hot. So Hot.

As I sit here writing this, I am schwitzing like there's no tomorrow. It' only about 25 degrees out, but it's also 70+% humidity right now. It's really true when people say, "It's not the heat that gets me...it's the humidity".
Jay and I have a softball tournament tomorrow and I fear for my health. I like hot weather but hot is a relative concept. For me, hot is about 25 degrees, but with an ocean breeze and a margharita in my hand! And clearly, I don't dig the humidity thing.
Unfortunately, we will be playing in 27 degree, full sun, high humidity weather. Our first game is at 8:00am, which in itself is a crime, but at least the temperature and sun will be lower. However, our afternoon game(s) will be rough. I wonder if I could still play well with a parasol? Or, maybe one of those umbrella hats you see Chinese people wearing at parades, sporting events, walking down the street?
