Rainy days, traffic and annoying people

Nature, invention and divine creation...

How lovely does it sounds, how awful when incorrectly combined.
Its a rainy day in San Salvador some sort of tropical depression just ruined my lunch hour.

That combined to the fact that it seems whenever it starts to rain, salvadoreans start to act as if struck by lightning and for some reason nothing is right, cars crash causing a tremendous traffic, all salvadoreans rush out of their office to the minor sign of rain thinking that having lunch at their house, in the warmth of their home, watching rain fall down in the company of their loved ones will be much better than the regular sandwich bought at the corner is actually a better option.

They go out, get soaked in the rain from their office to their car, get into traffic, realize their 1 and a half hour lunch time will be substantially reduced to 15 minutes, get annoyed... and end up ruining my lunch hour.

And now I am stuck... at the office... hungry.. and really considering a combination of ketchup and splenda...

Splenda: Made from sugar so it tastes like sugar.

Industry revolutionizer of No Calorie Sweetener...

The one who created it... is now a millionaire! (like in 1 year)
