Frustrating

to think of perfectly satisfactory few-liner posts, only to forget what it was you were thinking about by the time you get a few minutes to blog .....

So, finally, Shilpa has even won Big Brother.
And what did she have to say for herself?

Quite a lot, from the looks of it and all of it.....someone, pass me a bucket, quick.

Iraqi justice sees Saddam hanged to death - in Iraq.
And we riot in India for that - and kill/injure our own people.
Am I missing something here?

Swarovski crystal

Ever seen/bought any of it?
I did, for the first time today.
Gorgeous - absolutely.
And the prices - atrocious.

Sans microwave,

life stinks. How did I ever live w/o one in my not-so-distant Indian past?
Now, till this one is fixed, my life is broken....

Papertree St she said, I thought as I drove down the road for the umpteenth time, looking for the street. Why couldn't I find it?

I passed another st that had a name beginning with 'P'. I reversed slightly to get a better look.

Peppertree St, it was.

Accents are funny things. Next time, I'll get her to spell it for me instead.

Pongalo pongal

HAPPY BHOGI, PONGAL, UZHAVAR THIRUNAAL, MAATTU PONGAL, KANU PONGAL, THIRUVALLUVAR DAY AND KAANUM PONGAL TO YOU ALL.

Today is Maattu pongal.
We don't have a maadu (cow/bull) to dress up like we used to in India.
So we are going to have a blast with our Fudgie.
He's got far too much fur for us to do much, but we will still try.
And if it works out, will put up the pics on the blog too.
Hee hee, that will be fun.
Happy Muyal (rabbit) Pongal everyone.

Hee hee

It was going to be her dream job.
It is turning out to be perfect -
A perfect nightmare!
