When I arrive at the studio every morning, it's exceptionally hot. I should point out that we have air conditioning, but it fails regularly. It seems almost like a comedy act where every day, two men brign a ladder and walk around, trying to solve the problem. The ultimately figure out and everyone can high five on a job well done...for the next few hours. Tomorrow is another day with its unique set of problems. Well, not really; it is the exact, same problem.
The driving around here is usually insane, with motorcycles everywhere and crawling in between cars like ants on fallen ice cream. This makes crossing the street an extreme sport if the walk sign isn't visible.
Today, the lights weren't working which created an entirely different form of chaos. Traffic will move in the direction of the least patient group of drivers, honking furiously at the first car in line, who is inching forward and basically playing chicken with perpendicular traffic. Basically hoping that someone will take pity on them and stop. Eventually, either that happens or there is enough of a break in traffic that competing vehicles can just start moving.
Where does that leave the pedestrians? Full survival mode. From an overhead view, it probably looked something like this.
