Fog rolled back in. Thought it burned off for good around spring, then it just showed up again last week like it never left. Woke up at 4am scratching my wrist before I even knew what was going on – 38, and apparently my skin didn’t get the memo about being an adult.
Spent the morning convincing myself it’s just dry air from the heater kicking on early this year. It’s not. Checked the humidity out of habit more than anything, 40 percent, same as the inside of my apartment basically.
Going to bed past 2am again doesn’t help either, grad school deadlines don’t exactly pause for flare-ups. Baked a loaf last night just to keep my hands busy with something other than scratching. Didn’t eat a single slice of it, just needed them occupied.
Not looking for anything here, just logging it before I talk myself out of noticing the pattern again.
