It feels just like ages ago...

Heylo there! So Happy Belated Diwali everyone! It's at times like these that one really starts getting nostalgic about the way things were, back in the day, when life was so much simpler. Diwali has really changed over the years but it's still one of my favourite festivals. It feels a little empty nowadays though cos my cousin Edison isn't around Delhi anymore. Anyway we used to have a helluva time together, bursting crackers and then scouring around the next day for some crackers that people hadn't quite burst. The Blue Meanie and his ex- BFF Mr. Kite used to come up with the oddest positioning for some of the rockets, once bursting one from my toilet! But now Mr. K and the Meanie ain't talkin'. So yeah that chapter is over. Although I found some disturbing she-male porn on Mr. K's comp yesterday, so am quite frankly freaked out. But our annual D-day Barbecue was still good, and the baked potatoes as always were just right.

Today was a brilliant day too. My school friends Henry and Penny Lane are in town so we met up for lunch and dessert, and for some interesting conversation. Henry has a new 'do, which is highly reminiscent of a comic strip I drew in school...hair everywhere! :)
Lunch was yummy, Oak Tree is a really good discovery on Penny's part. And dessert was at our usual haunt 'Sweet Obsessions' . Way too much food! It was just really nice to be around two people I genuinely care about after ages. Nowadays Delhi is like a friggin' ghost town now that almost all my good friends have upped and gone! Penny seems to be enjoying college which is great cos I get to hear some intriguing stories about spirits and kaleidoscopes, but it's a shame my movie buddy is gone.! Really missin' Jude and Jojo and Chuck. While Jude and Chuck are on different continents, Jojo seems to be in another planet altogether and has gone completely underground on me. Martha, thankfully is back soon and Beethoven is coming back tomorrow! Lucy, Penny, Henry and I are all going to ambush him at the airport. This week is going to be hectic, and I am sure to be flaking off on my job (But that's secondary!!) Tomorrow the film Lucy has been working on is releasing so we are all gonna go check it out, so let me plug it here! GO SEE GOLMAAL RETURNS! MORE THAN ONCE! (You're welcome Lucy). Anyway that's my update. I don't have any deep philosophical message to contribute, so until next time...
