Unfair

It just ain’t right.

I make some longganisa and hung them out under the sun to dry, it rains.
I buy a ton of lovely red tomatoes and slice them to make sun dried tomatoes, it rains.
I dry some kamias, it rains.

If I were paranoid, I’d say that the weather is conspiring against me. But I’m not paranoid so I think the weather is really weird.

It’s summer and Holy Week is just around the corner and everything should be hot hot hot. Just when I started to think about going off to my favorite beach hideaway for a few days’ of escape from the heat, it started raining torrents. With thunder and lightning to boot. When the heat should be making you start thinking that a tall glass of watermelon shake sounds realy really good, what we get are thoughts of hot soup dancing in our heads and how a really hot thick mug of chocolate would go great with breakfast. Why am I not cursing myself at nights for being so kuripot for not buying an aircon and instead, I am burrowing under a blanket and sleeping with socks on? It’s summer for god’s sake! What will happen to those penitents walking on the hot pavement? To kids running around with their giant kites? To the halo halo vendors? To cicadas singing their asses off while dusk settles?

It just ain’t right at all.
