Hey, Ho, and a Merry-O
Hello, hello. Happy New Year. It's been a lovely two-week vacation from the blog and now it feels good to be back.
Frankly, I was getting sick of this blog. Sick of this mundane shit that I write. Who cares about reading it anyway? And if I'm writing for "myself" then why don't I just get a journal? But then sometimes you just have to blow the questions away and write anyway. Agree? Disagree? Never mind.
December was a time for reunions. Lots of old friends passing through town. Tulika, Uma, Sruthi, Deepti, Dinesh, and even some old schoolmates I haven't met in a long time. It's been great hanging out with them at leisurely lunches and loud bars. All good. The much awaited arrival of Muneera and my pink rabbit will end on Jan 19th.
My life continues to evolve rapidly. I am still teaching yoga and have at least 6 regular students, which I am grateful for. I've also picked up a consulting project with the new Novotel. It's a sweet deal where I am on-site 2 days a week and work from home the rest of the time.
Took a little vacation in the last week of 2007. Spent 3 gorgeous days in Coonoor and another 3 in Bangalore. We realised that the combination of cold weather and no central heating is not our thing. My body just refuses to function. But we shed the blankets and dragged ourselves out, walked around in the tea gardens soaking in the hill-station-sun. The "toy train" ride from Coonoor to Ooty was absolutely spectacular. But the best part about the whole trip was the company :).
Back in Blore, we rang in the new year with red wine shots (ugh), Entourage, and Harry Potter Uno. Very 37-year-oldish but just up my alley. 2008 should be interesting. All through 2007, I dated every cheque as 2008. It's probably a sign. I'll be either filthy rich or flat broke this year.
