Updates, etc.

I started this post about a week ago. Since then there have been some significant additions. More specifically, there has been one. It's in italics so as to distinguish it.

*My new house is bee-yoo-ti-ful. Really. Of course there are still parts of it that look a hurricane hit area. But it's more or less fallen into place.

*And there's a set top box. This weekend - 2 straight hours of 'Bold & the Beautiful - The Week That Was' followed by 'Desperate Housewives', 'The O.C' and other miscellaneous crap thrown in between. Bring it on!

*Hugging someone you love is the best feeling in the world. Period.

*I really wish people would ask me what they want to know about me instead of everyone else but me. I don't know when I gave the indication that I would not be willing to respond.

*When I meet people who aren't from here, I get so unbelievably excited. A hint it is methinks.

*My lymph nodes are enlarged. Which is probably not that big a deal but I'm freaked out about it anyway. If it's not better soon then I have to go for a scan.

*Yam leaves today. And suddenly I'm taken back to the way I felt when I left Bombay. That choking feeling in your throat, the uncertainty of what comes next. I don't know what I'm going to do without that girl.

*Phone calls from old friends are always good. Phone calls from old friends who are drunk as skunks are even better.

*A certain mad Madman has his birthday tomorrow. At least I think its tomorrow.

*I've quit my job. In the worst possible way. Angry words and a significant amount of screaming, shouting and crying were involved. Since then, attempts have been made at reconciliation. But the verdict remains the same. I'm not going back to fight a losing battle. Working with family is so hard.
