Getting drenched

Phew. Yesterday was a long day at work. I started at 8 and wrapped up a little after 9. But the most “exciting” part of the day was going back after dinner in a pre monsoon shower.

Little did I know I was going to get soaking wet in the morning. I got to work at 8 because I wanted to see what the stack of outstanding issues was after a full weekend.

Having looked at that and discussed some ways to more easily handle this stack, I took a (short) yoga session. In the evening, Siva, Roshan and I worked longer to get a continuation of a particular project. We stopped a little after 9. Hunger, sleep and heat (the AC was turned off at that time) got us out.

We went to the Melting Pot close by work. I had a Dakai Paneer with butter naan and Roshan ordered a Biryani. We all shared a bit in food and fun.

When we went outside, it was drizzling already and in the distance we could see lightning. Oh, oh. Quickly, Roshan and I mounted the bike but were already soaked by the time we got there.

Luckily the drive to the apartment was very short but in this torrential rain, it was enough to bet wet down to the bones.On the positive side, it was still warm.

Phew, that was quite something to experience these rains outside instead of being nicely comfortable inside.

Danny and Caroline had a ball when they saw me coming, drip-drip-drip, in.
