Trip to thousand 6!

I never got down to completing my Hyderabad post - tho' I promise I shall some day ... I owe it to the bunch of crazy people I had such an awesome time with!

Its 2007 already! And every year seems to finish faster than the previous one!

As usual - a quick re-cap of a year that was... 2006

Jan... began with many, many nights @ Take 5! Making new frundses! Drinking new wineses - Inniskillin ..reccommended for those of you who like sweet wine! And a week in Bombay on work, which ended up being a sooper time with the Nair Sisters!

Feb... More work and a lot more travel!

March... I can't remember anything other than the endless planning with the Rat for THE BIG BEACH HOUSE BIRTHDAY celebration! Ma turned 60 and Rolf turned 21. And I turned OLD!

April… never in my life have I had so many things to do and SO LITTLE time! I ended up missing my best friend’s wedding to go to South Africa and Dubai. The guilt of missing the wedding was over come by the fantab time I had of course.. hehe ;-)

May… I think I must’ve been on a high after my travels, coz I don’t remember much!!

June… I don’t remember either… must’ve been World Cup fever!

July… was shifting time L Still miss my old house – specially on sunny winter days when we could bask on the terrace. Its true that there must’ve been 5 such occasions in 3 yrs. But still!

August… oh yes how can I forget! Taking you back to July here for a moment – when I discovered my little (OK BIG!) friend ET growing inside of me for what could’ve been a year! And the panic and chaos and calm and comforting from inside and outside of my head! What mattered most (no pun intended!) was all of my friends and family who really really stood by me and got me through the crap!
…August 1st was ET’s day OUT! And from then on the month was spent on the road to recovery!

September… new secret travels with Liz! And finally back to work! Just in time to bid farewell to The Goose who left to become a rockstar!



October… selling expensive ass villas. Making new friends. Falling for the wrong ones! And getting over the whole mess that is what life is all about!

November… still getting over the mess! And making more new friends… and strengthening older bonds! Being far away from home and still at home! Being pampered by the Totes! And loving every minute of it!

December… Couldn’t believe it ended so soon! Hyderabad couldn’t have ended any better! There was a quick trip to Cal to see my New Little Plum and the Old Big Pudding! And then back to Bangalore where the entire family joined me for Christmas. Was a month of sharing and caring and loving and cuddling and reuniting with old friends that had almost fallen off my radar! Also had an absolutely sooper NY’s eve close to the sea… swimming, drinking, barbecuing, and bartending!



(Mid way through this post, I lost the ability to post pictures! ..yes I worked it back to front!)
