Countdown to Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, go visit The Leaky Cauldron This is a fan site that J.K Rowling herself recommends and it has all of the info you'll ever need.

It is SO incredibly hot here today. I woke up this morning (at 5:30) with heatstroke, so that was lovely *rolls eyes* I felt so sick.. and also like I couldn't breathe. Which reminded me of our conversation with Kelly during the last heat wave:

Kelly: I feel like I can't breathe
Me: Do you have asthma?
Kelly: no
Diana and I: You might now

hello words biting me on the ass. I'm sure I'm fine it's just too smoggy and hot. I got to work and had to ask to leave early so I was there for less than 2 hours before the other girl came in and relieved me. I felt so gross, the A/C helped a bit but not enough. Then I stopped by Reitmans to ask for the afternoon shift I had off, well I only was on call so I just asked to really not be called in. They were fantastic and said I could stay at home. Then on the way home some girl behind me had heatstroke too but she was puking on the streetcar, into a bag, but still *ew* I felt so bad for her.

Then I stole my parents room (the only one in the house with air conditioning) and passed out for 3 hours.

Also, my DVD is here!!!!!!!!!! Hell yeah! So I'm totally watching that soon, then capping, then applying to iconcommmunities *yay*

Don't worry. Everyone has problems breathing in the hot city air. It's the smog. Humans aren't supposed to be able to breathe it. If you had asthma, you'd know. It's ridiculously awful.

But so lucky you got the day off! I'm a little surprised cos it's hot and stuff, but not so hot I can't bear it. Maybe I'm a heat baby. I went for a run yesterday! Mmm. Sweat is nice. I sweat a lot so maybe that's why the heat doesn't bother me so much....

Hope you feel better!!!

I'm doing better now that I've slept and watched my movie lol. Tomorrow afternoon we shall visit, but I'm totally taking the bus to your house, no walking for me.

I think the heat was just too bad for me because in my room overnight it gets hotter instead of cooling off hence I baked myself :(

Yeah it can be hard to take deep breaths in the heat, esp. if you are not used to it (I am not that bad, I grew up in Miami FL, so yeah! hello!) but it can be really bad. :( But if it gets worse, go to a doctor.

Do you have a fan? And be sure to wear really light clothing, esp. when you sleep. And have water next to you while in bed. So you can drink it if you wake up feeling ill. and don't have to move much. Seriously.

Thank you for the advice, I'm following all of it, and sleeping in the living room where it's cooler tonight. :)
