Eastern Winds

eumeliaI woke up at around four in the morning today.
The windows rattled and I thought it was earthquake, but the cat usually comes to snuggle with me when it is something subterranean.
However, when I opened my eyes I saw the tree banging at my window pane, the wind was howling like a bloody pack of wolves - it's still doing so as I write - and when I opened my bathroom window I was attacked by tiny bits of sand and dust blowing westward.
This is not a cool Mediterranean sea breeze. Oh no. This is angry Arabian desert wind.
It hates me.
And my nasal cavity.
Friends, the sky is white! If it (hopefully) rains tonight, it will be raining mud. Cars will be speckles and caked with wet dust.
I pity those who got their cars washed this week.
Tough luck.
I have a headache from the dryness. Any minute now my eyes will begin to water, again, and I when I blow my nose no doubt a bit of blood from ruptured blood vessels will join the sand that is currently trying to disable my breathing abilities.
I dunno about the rest of y'all, but this calls for a Siesta.
