One thing I continuously complain about the weather here (to poor Sanj, who listens patiently) is that figuring out what to wear is a longer process than normal (normal in Sri Lanka, that is)..
In addition to having to worry about whether the outfit is relatively colour coordinated, it's necessary to access the weather channel, find out what the weather (hot/ cool/ cold/ rain/ sunshine/ snow/ wind) is like right now, how it will change during the day, and what it will be like on the return home and dress appropriately. Two days ago, I stepped out of the house in the morning wearing a waterproof winter jacket, despite it being 15C outside, as it was supposed to be -5C and rainy at 10pm, which is the time I come home.
On to something else. I've been crazy busy since I'm taking 3 classes (all involving team project work), working 3 days a week (for free, unfortunately) and working on a consulting project. I'm so glad I like cooking, coz if I didn't that would have contributd to the list of things I have to do, rather than being one of the things to do to chill out.
Matta and Sherry came over to our place a few days ago for a Sri Lankan brunch of Kiribath, Lunu Miris, Seeni Sambol and Chicken Curry (we made all- except the Lunu Miris- at home). We went to the neighbourhood ice cream store "The Brown Cow" afterwards. Matt and I had sundaes (mine was called Laura's strawberry field, which consisted of strawberries, granola, whipped cream and vanilla ice cream.. yum!) while Sanj and Sherry decided not to... We came home and watched Airplane (1 and 2, mind you) which was ok.... Not thaaat funny to me, but was hilarious to everyone else.. But then you know what my taste in humor is.. Beak at the knees etc :)
Running out now to the gym, and then to school. Later!
