wheezing

Just to get me started back

[1114] I have to start acting better in front of cops. The last time i was cheery and smiley, and not the sober self, I got a ticket and have to attend a defensive driving class. Luckily not too exhorbitant, but it pinches. ouch!!

[906] The World Cup begins and I have not purchased any package. Seeing that I have hajaar things in my head anyways, it seems like skipping it is the best.
By World Cup - i dont mean two clubs of some small US cities battling it out for a trophy that only US recognizes. But this world cup is for real - cricket with teams representing many countries. Though not as global as football.

[771] Tax time - zzzzzz!!! grrr!!

[517] Baby boom time - One more nephew, three more friends becoming parents, another two friends in some time. Learning dua's had never been so easy!!

[300] Loss of a blogger!! Boohoo. Even a farewell note saying that the blog was shut would have been fine. Now it just leads you into the scary horrible world of ad redirection. Someone should make a note of ill-effects of marriages of today...

[1] Parents in town. What better way to spend the next two months.
Seem to recall nearly all the tips we used to get from the various student groups before we arrived here. That one tip that we did not recall was about carrying eye prescriptions and extra glasses. Alhumdillah that was all. Dad now sports a new bifocal.

there is this demand for keeping friday night meetings!! Plus some family members were sick co-inciding on fridays. then out of town travel for parents can be done only when travelling on friday evenings. so we need more fridays!!!

Driving school ain't so bad.. You can do it online (at least you could do it in CA).. Chad bhai (remember him??) also suggested I go for the comedy club traffic school (yes.. such things also exist)

About relocation.. No thanks... Am pretty happy in apna des... And the World Cup, I hope we win.. but, w.r.t. your other post, in 1983, we beat our first opponent, WI of all people.. in 2007, we lose to our first opponent.. Bangladesh of all people..
