Snail mail for S in SA

Looks like this is becoming a sunday thing - in fact more like catching up on the snail mail, considering S sitting in SA!!
Actually, have begun to wait for these moments when it's just me and the keyboard. But know what, I don't think am yet ready to 'write'- am more at the acquaintance phase of my relationship with this blog, needs a lot of going to open up further.
Well, Ginger's an awesome hotels chain I must vouch for, considering the kind of service I received in Mysore - it's just the way one likes a friend to be - get involved and show that you are around but not once make you feel your privacy or space is intruded upon!Needless to say, Ginger is here to stay...(Interruption 1 : 10 miles away N hears crackers and has given orders that in the now the crackers have to stop bursting.. ah, if only I had that kind of power!!!.. and my mom arrives to the rescue to distract her and she IS doing a pretty good job.. but just you wait, once she's done, my daughter will be back to repeating her earlier orders.. managers could learn a thing or two on focus from this 3 year old). Coming to think of it, the week that went was quite a long one...in terms of the advice (always have a doubt if it's spelt with s or c)but, have been getting huge trunk loads of it, I only want it all to stop, really, it's just reached saturation point looks like. From the minute I wake up (oh, woken up, i.e)it's a list of do's and dont's.. throw in a few 'why did you do this yday', 'this is not the right example you are setting'!! Driving's on, after I threw in an attitude number on the guy, he lands up promptly at 7.59 am for the 8 am class.. and he has classified me as the 'late pick-up' case and we are not talking of time here.. skills, you see, only few gifted people can actually misplace gears after 14 days of classes and worse, still, not realise it too!!
We had THE lavish 21k (oh, oh, I should add for 17 people in the office, tax included)party finally on saturday - am just calling it a party cos I can't call it a Halloween or something.. plan to watch the dark knight followed by bowling and a dinner.. for the 1 pm show on the one hand we have colleagues who are as excited as excited can be while there are the others (majority is this end) who leave their houses sharp the very exact minute the movie starts...and only about a 100 calls to coordinate with each other... learnt a good lesson that day! Bowling didn't happen cos between the movie getting over and reaching Church Street, the 13 people team (no I din get the numbers wrong)was reduced to 10, smart people had smart plans and they left while the rest found out that there was a long wait for the bowling and so hit Ruby Tuesday.. it was probably the only best time I had with a friend , lost in our own worlds with our drinks and the starters, then landed for dinner.. nothing interesting to report here... finally was picked up by home clan and reached home...am glad the event is done with!!
Could not do much shopping this week though, but not to worry, the next week looks promising once the moolah is in which will be once am done with timesheets, that is...
Got my handwriting analysed for the heck of it and am really thinking I should change it.. revealed a shade too much in 15 minutes and frankly, wouldn't want every Tom, Dick, Harry and Raghu to go around learning this.. could be the beginning of the end for qualitative research! Thankfully, it was off the mark at least in a couple of places - long live analysis!
Oh and workwise, made the worst presentation ever... and as pointed out rightly, did a Jerry Maguire round after that.. have been lucky though to get a second window next week with the tops, better not screw it up!
Hey, this really has been a long week, hasn't it?And if people still watch English movies, Lucky Number Slevin was good, and did I tell you about Vantage Point? The next movie is Circle, which looks really dark to me - Iranian, nevertheless will watch it, after all I have been planning to for the last two weeks - this has nowadays become my average planning time nowadays (nobody can tell me I don't plan my life).. and last, finished the 'che' finally.. second half of the book is a complete contrast to the first, should watch the movie too.. but the Inca and Cuzco apart, would never want to travel so hunger stricken.. plan and save monies and do a nice grand one.. on a hungry stomach there's only so much noble thoughts and fine art one can see and appreciate.. am sure if Ernesto and Alberto had the money power, the motorcycle diaries would have been a much fatter book.. ok signing off, really hungry now...
