To the techie(s) I know and love
Question.
How do I make Winamp my default player?
It's currently VLC.
I think I like how small Winamp can get EVEN THOUGH they both do the same thing.
Email?

Afterthought: I should just Google it, shouldn't I?

We'll always have that
The ipod.
It's mine. But well, it's with you and yours as well. Sort of.
It's ours, more than either mine or yours I suppose because YOU bought it but then, you gave it to me.
And I wonder if you would have.
Bought it, I mean. If you'd known.
Known that I'd be that way.
I wonder if I'd have taken it if I'd known. That I'd be that way.
I don't think I knew.
I think I knew what was bothering me.
And I must have expected you to fix it.
Magically.
It's pointless. Fixing something that can't be.
I'm glad that we have it. Among other things.
And oh,
You better not have lost it.
I want it back!
Just saying :)

Your house had a particular smell. Slightly damp? Or maybe the sheets on the bed weren't changed too often. I don't know.
I caught a whiff of that today. It brought back the feeling of a memory.
The feeling of being suspended.
But not in a good way.
Maybe it wasn't suspension. Maybe it was more the feeling of being mid air. And it's awesome to be mid air like that.
Except
You're tied up.
And there's nothing awesome about being tied up.

Me in my shorts and 3 year old Megan in one of my tops that she's turned into a short halter dress for herself. She looks at me with a happiness that could only result from the certain knowledge that you're part of a very select setup. Pointing at my bare legs and then hers (we're a conservative race), almost conspiratorially, with a smile on her face she says,
"We're both shame (meaning 'same' minus the baby lisp)."

My friend Kat decides to make me up. Hair, make up, the works.
Looking pretty takes effort!
Face wash, massage your face, not so rough! pat your face dry, don't wipe it like that! sun block, kajal, mascara, eyelash curler! powder, powdered on lightly with a brush, blush, lipstick, nail polish, loose side plait.
I leave her place to go home and I'm waiting for an auto outside.
Half a minute later I'm messaging her.
Message 1: 'Kat, I think I look like a hooker.'
Message 2: 'Everybody's staring at me!'
Message 3: 'On the plus side, I'm getting autos fast :)'

The maid didn't come in yesterday
My mother grumbling about no end leaves with my father on some work
A while later the bell rings. It's none other than our one and only Selvy. For those who haven't figured it out, the maid.
"Why so late?" I want to know. Trying to explain to her that it throws everybody off course if she doesn't turn up.
"Pepsi bottle ma, [Tamil, tamil, tamil, which I don't understand] Pepsi."
"Huh?" (that's me trying to figure out what Pepsi has to do with her being late)
I finally get the story from her. Below:
Selvy per usual is needling her husband saying "Drunkard, drunkard, you're nothing but a drunkard."
Her husband says "Here Selvy have some Pepsi. I insist."
Selvy quite happy at the prospect of this treat, gulps it down.
Little does she know that the Pepsi has been laced and quite heavily with BRANDY, if you please.
So drunk Selvy couldn't get up in the morning.
And THAT everybody is why she came in late to work.
Has to be the funniest thing I heard all day.
I think she deserves a category all for her self.

Hampi
Some relaxation after bouldering on the other side of the river
Exploring. A well we walked into while searching for cave paintings in Anegudi
There were markings at a certain level along the wall.
On one side of the wall approximately where we're standing there was a circle, presumably the full moon. On the other side a half moon and a fish next to it.
Secret swimming spot on the other side of the lake

Travel
Traveling never ends up being about the place.
It's usually about the food and more than that, the people.
Sometimes the ones you go with; sometimes the ones you meet there.

The whole room saw what their minds told them was correct.
I was the only one who saw differently. Saw what was actually there.
The setting was almost exactly the same. Just the People were different. And they spoke with American accents. Glaring differences one might say from our Indian skin and accents.
Still, everybody insisted I was wrong.
Even though I wasn't.
I might as well have been wrong.
And I was, until somebody who also had basic observation skills realized what the debate was about and backed my observation.
I hadn't wasted too much time arguing, determining as it clearly was, a waste of time.
Observation 1: People are idiots
Observation 2: Even right is wrong with no supporting witness
Observation 3: Don't waste time on useless arguments
