You know it's Winter when...
You know it's winter when... the only thing on your mind on the way to office is not the job you screwed up last evening that will get you fired, but how soon can you hit the loo before you not only lose your job, but any leftover respect you may have
You know it's winter when... you sub-consciously start avoiding drinking water when you're out and about and neither close to a 'public inconvenience' nor to nature's resplendent empty fields & gardens
You know it's winter when... you smile a lot less because every smile of yours painfully reminds you of that bloody cream you forgot to put on your face before leaving home in the morning
You know it's winter when... you make less friends with people around you because you can't tell whether the person standing next to you is an armed terrorist or an over-clad aunty
You know it's winter when... you start carrying a back-up handkerchief in your bag, because your nose decides to make up for the water shortage you're facing in the building
You know it's winter when... you question your school chemistry, where you're sure they taught you that air, made of nitrogen, oxygen & carbon dioxide, are all colourless gases & yet you're breathing white coloured air
You know it's winter when... the only thing scarier than a cold shower is taking a flight early in the morning, or for that matter at any time of the day
You know it's winter when... well... you get the picture...
How do you get to know it's winter? I'm curious to know...

I know it's winters coz i'm getting late for work everyday and that's coz it's the toughest thing to venture out of your blanket in the morning!
Totally agree with Z on the getting out of the blanket thing..
Also, I know its winter when standing out in the office garden after lunch is a welcoming thought.. when I take 7 or 8 coffee or tea breaks in the day.. when my feet look nice coz I've been wearing socks the whole day.. when a simple thing like the thought of washing your hands after eating dinner makes you shudder... when you want to snuggle with someone... when going to India gate for a night drive takes on a charm of its own.. and when I feel like lazing in bed the whole day with a book to read rather.. oh wait, no this last one happens to me all the time irrespetive of the season!
