Winters and work

(Obviously, you can understand that work has started again and my agenda remains, Close offices, Ban work!)

They both start with 'W' but are poles apart, like magnets of the same poles, they abhor each other. I mean really, isn't it a herculean task to get up in a winter morning that we add on piles of extra work to this season.
Any little thing you need to do which entails a contact with water, also entails an extra work of heating it up...
If you are not cozily snugged up inside the layers of blankets, an extra work is planning and calculating the exact ratio and line-up of clothes that you need to put on...
And of course, winters mean a little extra bit of hunger, so either you cook extra, order extra or fret extra about all the added tyres to your already growing paunch...
And in office, I'm almost always mentally cursing someone who still feels hot enough to keep the AC on and leaves me uncomfortable and at other times dreaming about tea/coffee/vodka (take your pick) with steaming hot pakodas. The result being, I have to work extra on Friday to actually make up for the whole of the week's target which i spent day-dreaming and writing mindless blog posts... (I can see that thought bubble next to your head now, which says, "Exactly!")

By the way, I'm sure you've noticed the ad on TV which says, "sardiyon may kuch extra chahiye"... I'm planning to sue them for copyright after all the idea is originally mine... I mean, just that I presented it in public a tad too late!
