April 9, 2013 - A/C

I finally turned on my air conditioning today.

My spinning ceiling fans (on Level 3) were keeping me just cool enough at night, but it’s time to step it up.

Actually, though, it is not as much the warming temperature, but the fact that A/C discourages mosquitoes that prompted me to ask the front desk three times in three days to please come up and get the A/C working for me. I got munched a couple nights ago by a ninja mosquito and got out the aerosol spray for the first time. Although they made the spray smell nice, I don’t like the idea of spraying poison in the air.

One maintenance dude had to lift a shelf that I did not know lifted and plug the things in while the other *stood out on the ledge* and fiddled with something out there. They double checked that I still didn’t want my heater (which had been using the A/C socket) before taking it away. No thanks.

Delhi is less humid than I expected. Although it certainly is warm out in the middle of the day, not brutally so, not yet. I still enjoyed a hot chai after lunch in the outdoor food stalls outside work, though the market has been becoming popular with flies lately.
