How crazy am I?*

It is 44C. In the shade.
I want ramen. I want ramen from the new ramen shop in the main food hall, where the staff speak Japanese. I know its going to be good.
I ride my pushy in the blazing midday sun, along the soft stinky roads, to the markets.
I order miso ramen (with extra corn) to take away.
I get back on my pushy, covered in a thin film of sweat. I ride back to work somewhat more slowly than I originally rode to the Markets. I eventually got back to work.
I sat down and ate my ramen. It was FANTASTIC. I was very satisfied. And hot. Much sweatier that when i started the whole lunch process.
Then the outside temp went to 45C. In the shade.

Who needs a bath when outside is this warm!?!

*rhetorical question, no need to give details in the comments, kthx!

      I am not sure whether is a NLP created aversion, but I will not eat ramen.  I think I told myself that it had too much lard in it so now I can’t think about it without thinking about my waistline.

      I did the same thing with McDonalds and Tonkatsu - I basically told myself that I shouldn’t eat it and now I can’t face it. 

      I should do the same thing with chocolates and cigs!!  Now that would be ideal.

          Ramen is noodle soup! Yummy stuff: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramen
          The shop is opposite Ricky’s Chicken Rice.
