Coffee, a tempest and wet dreams.

Well, I am sure that many of you have got the case of the 'wandering feet' and I am sure that like me, many of you are thinking of the next place to visit. Well, that is what I was planning on doing today, especially as the heat was getting to be intolerable. So I decided to go to the roof top restaurant and have a coffee while I let my wandering mind take me to terrains I have not visited yet.

With coffee, one cannot help but think of places like Brazil or Spain, with Spain being one of my hot favorites, the people, the land, the architecture and more importantly, the cuisine. Anyway getting back to the story, as I was pondering whether to visit Spain once again, the wind literally blew my porcelain coffee cup out of my hand and right on to my lap. So imagine yourself in my place, cursing the wind and getting soaked all the way to the undies with strong, bitter hot coffee.

If things were supposed to get better after that, well, someone read the dialogue wrong somewhere. For what happened next would make even the Florida hurricane sit up and take note of it. Let us just say that the wind blew hard and cold, accompanied with but naturally biting bullets of rain. So there I was thinking of places to visit on account of the heat and all of a sudden, I am getting drenched from top to bottom [not to be taken literally, the last part, that is] with cold water from the skies above.

The end result was that my coffee was on the floor, with the restaurant's guests getting soaked to the skin with anything and everything showing up to perfection and I thought to myself, that it seems that the heavens are not intent on my traveling anywhere for the moment. So the decision was made, to put up with the intolerable weather for the moment, both hot and cold, all at the same time. A tempest, it sure was, one that any Goldilocks would have loved but it was just not up to my taste.

The cold rain in December!

Just as I was getting all set to blog, it started to rain cats and dogs, it still is going on strong, some 45 minutes later. Do not get me wrong, it is not that I dislike the rain, it is just that any rain in december is freezing cold, and it is very uncomfortable. At times like these, you want to be all wrapped up in a nice thermal blanket with a nice hot cup of cocca in your hand. Now that is something that I can look forward to!

The english weather in Chennai!

It seems that the Monsoon season for the sunny city of Chennai has started in full swing. I am talking about the North east monsoon which has already made many a road useless. What is more, the rain has started pouring down in the 'English' fashion, that is not raining when one is indoors, but the moment that one is outdoors, it starts to pour cats and dogs.
Either way, it really has put a damper on my plans of going to the beach farm for the weekend. Who would want to go to the beach on a rainy day. In the end, even if one does go to the beach farmhouse at this time, all one would do is spend most of the time indoors playing bridge or solitaire. And that really sucks on so many a level!Tea, anyone?
