Bheege Bheege Mausam in Namma Chennai!!

Yes, folks!!! It's actually raining buckets...scratch tat....barrels in chennai!!! Not that anyone's complaining. The swell weather we're having the last couple o' days is a welcome relief frm the frizzling heat!! Only thing is, it should last. Varied speculation claims it will as the "monsoon" season in chennai has arrived....for the time being!! Say so coz weather here has bin so erratic, its advisable to expect the unexpected. Like downpour during agninakshatram....:).

My friend n i thought we'd exploit the super weather and went to the beach. All was well, until a cloud decided to burst right above us!! Well, obviously we were soaked and then it was Planet Yumm to the rescue!! We weren't in any hurry tho....jus put those vulnerable cellphones in and strolled in there(yea rite!!).....completely wet!!! Ouch.....i'll admit tat was majorly stymying!! We sat right under a fan so we (so to say i) could dry off, the effect being me shivering sans chattering teeth. While in the process, our tummies began craving attention(more my frend's!!). So a panipuri, pav bhaji and garlic bread were in order, dontcha think?? we did at least!! :P Me, being as drenched as i was, didn't have much of an appetite. And tat's saying something for me!! Tat didn't stop me frm eating tho. No way!

Finally, when we chance to look outdoors, we find the whole rain rigmarole has cleared up. Talk about things happening only to us!! Infuriating! And to top it all, jus when we stepped out, it began drizzling again!!!!! Hmpf!! If you got the impression tat i hate getting wet, chuck tat outta your head!!! I revel in water!! it's jus tat it's not very pretty to get wet when you're wearing this thin cotton kurta....if you get my drift!! Kurta aside, it was a smashing evening!!!

Jus for the record, my friend n i firmly decided against coming to the beach in our "super-sexy" weather. Nope!
