Perhaps stranger still if I were sitting around out of my boxers.
Living in this climate, I usually wear boxers/gym shorts as my at-home attire. My house doesn't have AC, and most of the time it's really hot here. |

Sure, why not?
Books: Harry Potter 5 for about the fifth time, the Qur'an (which I haven't dipped into in months), and The Crescent and the Star: Turkey Between Two Worlds by Stephen Kinzer.
TV: I'm in a netcafe currently, but last thing I watched was BBC News... or maybe an episode of their Aspects of Africa series. Am BBC World nerd.
What's in the glass: A gin and tonic, soon, I hope, if all the others haven't wussed out and gone home!
On my feet: Brown synthetic espadrilles.
On my skin: White short-sleeved top, ankle-length coffee-brown pinafore dress, residue of hamam relaxation (including a friend's olive oil soap) from this morning.
On the stereo: The netcafe likes to play TurkPopLite. The last album I listened to at home was Ani Difranco, "Dilate."
The weather outside: Dark, high teens. Got up to the mid-twenties today, I'd say at a guess, and was sunny.
