Haze daze

The haze has been settling down comfortably in the city just like an unwanted house guest. Shrouding us like a hot blanket. A dirty blanket. Urgh =(

First thing in the morning at work and we were assembled for roll-call. Directives being shot here and there. My job for this fine day? Being the weather girl to update the Senior Nurse Manager of the 3-hourly PSI level hourly (make sense? I think the 3-hourly PSI measurement is bullshit... but that aside).

The PSI climbed to hit the 401 in the noon. I worry for all our lungs. A quick text to announce the cancellation of outing tomorrow and I'm back to resume my duties.

As the weather clears in the evening, I once again saw how significant clean air can be. It was as if I was back to Rinjani all over again. Lungs, how much more can you take?
