long time....

thanks daddy for reminding me...i had been procastinating...partly cause i wanted to...partly cause i didnt have a choice...

work has been maddening lately...i was 'almost' handling 2 projects at the same time for the past 3 days...hv slept not more than 4 hours at a stretch in the past 3 nights...and have been almost labelled as a zombie by the man in the mirror.

bday...came and went...though it was quite relaxed. after a long time spent it with family...met R in the evening...cut a cake...and all..!

however, i have never ever had so many people wishing me...
  • 221 orkut scraps (my bosses would be happy to note that none of my replies to all of these scraps came during office hours!)
  • 28 emails (wow...!)
  • 15 sms-es (and i thought that sms-es were the way to go...for the future)
  • 11 phone calls

thank you...orkut birthday reminder...www.birthdayalarm.com...yahoo reminders....google alerts...outlook calendar....

...

dad is doing much better...will be starting office this week...inshallah...(!)...the doctors were really happy with his progress and it was during the review session did they disclose that he had literally come out from the most severe form of infection that could have hit his pancreas..!

happy news...

  1. daddy got his visa...so he shall be leaving for yankee land very soon...
  2. my final settlement from NIS (yes...the same company i used to work for some 1000 days back..!!)...came...and i am slightly rich now
  3. almost...almost...completed the model that i was working on...to some awesome relief...
  4. have a 3 day weekend this time...and am going for a road trip on saturday....wassssuuuupppp

life's good...

PS: daddy..(and this is god damn the 3rd time i am mentioning you)...there was one girl that didnt like me when she 1st met me...and i am to marry her next year...! i guess that was the criteria..! :)
