11/Jun/2008. Looks like I dreamed after a long time ;-). Okay, so here is the dream:
I am in a hotel and order for 3-4 dishes for lunch at 12:15 pm. I wait for ever for the dishes to come. In the meantime, I see that other people who have ordered after me have already been served. At 1:45, my patience runs out. I go to the head waiter's table, but he is not around. So I stand forever until he returns back. When I ask him what was going on, he says that it normally takes this much time. I tell him that it doesn't. Then, when he sees his order book, he realizes that my order has not been passed to the kitchen. When I see this, I get wild and tell him to cancel the order. Just then a chakka (transvestite) comes on the scene and asks me to lower my voice. I refuse and continue arguing with him/her. He/she tells me that the food is the best and I would love it, so I should just wait for a while.
Finally, the food comes. Vaibhav and mom also join me for the food. They complain that the roti is very rubbery. There is a lady on the next table and she concurs too. The head waiter is sitting on another table close by and hears this. Finally, when the bill comes, there is a discount and a thank you note for the feedback on the roti.
Next, I am in the balcony of a hotel room with Shireesh Indurkar and Anil Ghanwat. We get this room for one hour for 100 rupees. Clearly, this room was occupied by someone else, who had probably gone out for some work and the hotel owner gave it to us in the meantime since we wanted it only for an hour. This room is by the seaside. Between the sea and the room, there is a shallow muddy water body enclosed by a wall. There are 5 ladies standing in this pool with their backs facing us. Then one lady does a head-over-heals and dips her hair in the water. We come back into the room and see that there is a computer and some books.
After one hour, a hotel worker comes and indicates that time is up. We tell him that next time he should give us a better room. He agrees.
And then there was day break ...
