Global Cooling in the Desert

I am still in shock and denial that the desert of the middle east can be cold and miserable and rainy and windy, this is not possible, I really did bring the correct clothing like short sleeved shirts and no sweater, the cold that i am feeling as the wind erodes my blue lips with the sand that it is carrying, is only a figment of my imagination. The torrential thunderstorms that leave gigantic roadside pools of water are just a mirage and are non-existent. The fog that drifts across the incredibly flat landscape was just some dream i had as i leave my hotel before 6 everyday.
Can all this be real, this is the middle east, famed for having a dry blistering hot climate and i am feeling like i am back in the UK suffering crappy weather, this is worse than being back at school as i didn't used to get up until 7.30am then.
The rumour being put about by the meteorologists is it is the worst winter since 1964, the whole region is suffering, people in India are freezing to death as the winds have been roaring down from Siberia and chilling them to well below zero, and as many destitute people in India sleep in a few rags and eat nothing but garbage found on the roadside they will suffer more than most. But I am not enjoying this exposure to real weather, I am a reptile and need sunshine and blistering hot weather to survive, i need to roast my ass in a sequined thong on the beach or i will shrivel up like an old Mexican tortilla, this is the nature of a white boy from northern Europe who now lives in the tropics, i cannot deal with crappy weather anymore and will stamp about the office until i get fired from the project, what is the world coming to when a pampered engineer is expected to tolerate miserable weather for large amounts of dollars, it is just totally unacceptable, i will write to the queen and complain.
