Less Than Peachy

Is it me or is it extraordinarily hot and clammy today? The sky looked gloomy in the morning and I go yeay, it's going to rain. But it didnt and the sun was extra hot till late evening. I should know because I was beading outside and I still had good light even after 7.

The heat was unbearable even after Maghrib. I asked everyone if we should eat out. I cant bear the thought of cooking, setting the table and then the cleaning up later. We ate in. But with everybody helping the chore wasnt such a big deal.

I escaped to the aircond room and wondered if these are hot flushes / flashes aka the pre-menopause things, you know.

Which reminded me that 5 years ago I thought I was having the same symptoms. I bought a pre-menopause book and went to see the GPs. They gave me unsatisfactory answers so I went to see an ObGyn at Ampang Puteri after that.

The specialist, a lady (of course, I cant bear to see a male gynaecologist anyway), told me I am an over-indulged person who is spoilt enough to see a specialist even though I cant exactly say what is wrong with me. More or less like that. I was astounded. But didnt she get it? The reason I went to see her is because I hoped SHE might have some answers for me!

A couple of months later I heard she is no longer working at the hospital. Not surprising.

I should just go to sleep. Maybe it is just a bug that is going round that is getting to me. Or maybe it is just the thought of going to work tomorrow (in that dreadful shade of orange - I have a good tale to tell about this) after a long wekend that's getting to me..
