Remember that F.R.I.E.N.D.S episode, where everyone goes to Barbados and Monica’s hair becomes thrice it’s size due to the humidity? I’ve literally never related to a fictional character more. As much as I love curling up by the window with a cup of tea on a rainy day, I equally dread stepping out of the house.
