A holiday in Zimbabwe

Its been roughly seven months since I arrived here in Zimbabwe. Most of it has been spent working 15-18 hours a day giving rise to complaints and accusations of me ignoring my family, the wife etc. even leading to a time when my wife refused to communicate with me. While many a married man may find that a pleasant thought, I for one very much like my wife talking to me, because that makes sure I don't have to say anything, which is just as well since I usually don't have anything much to say or talk about these days except work. But it was all worth it. All the hard work, long hours and ignoring the family paid off finally when it came to cashing in my chips. The wife and me went on a holiday!! But planning and putting together the holiday was by itself a daunting task. You see, while I am in Harare, Zimbabwe, the wife is in Oxford, UK, also working also constrained by the fact the since she'd just joined in August 2013, there could be a problem getting leave. But al...

14 months and 20 days...

The title is the amount of time that has roughly passed since the evening spent in Shimla, sipping coffee with my stuff all packed and thinking about the new job and the life I was going to begin in Dehradun. Sitting here in Chandigarh, I am trying to look back at all that has transpired in this time. Trying to make sense of it all. Moving to Dehradun was fun, I found new friends there and helpful colleagues. A landlord who treated me like family and a house with a view.  It was a good time in Dehradun, work wasn't exactly great, which is why given the choice I opted to relocate to Chandigarh. But that will come later. Around this time I found a lovely companion. Some one who really tests my self control yet with whom I can lose all control and be myself, no façade or masks.  A person pure of heart, witty, sticks to her guns like glue, shares my passion for reading, hates pink, and most of all likes me for who I am. I wouldn't have it any other way. In Dehradu...

Happy days are here again!

Come June and the rains are here. After waiting two hot months, the monsoon is finally at the doorstep with its cool rain. I have already been drenched twice. Waiting for the full force. Had a lot of mangoes this year. Saw my sister get married to my best friend. All in all it has been a good season. It really changes ones outlook when some one close to you gets married. When my sis got married, suddenly she was no longer my kid sister, but woman! suprising, how you dont notice it before. Fuel prices set to rise again. Hmm that is inevitable i guess, but 10 to 16 Rs. thats gonna cut down on my biking. Now that the world is really facing a fuel crisis, (and Mr. Bush please dont blame Indi and China, its the US which consumes 25% of the world oil), its time we humans took stock of our activities. I think car pooling should be made mandatory. It would be a good idea to ban all motorsports. These sports consume a lot of fuel and high quality at that too. Lets hope people come to their sen...
