Ramazan, life and general catching up

So yeah, I've been pretty AWOL the past month and half, with exams and stuff so I thought I'd write a nice long post telling you (my nonexistent readers) about what I've been up to. First I had crazy deadlines for assignments that gave me a lot of grief. After that I had exams themselves which very nearly killed me. Right after those I had a lot of catching up to do at work which I still have, but those will last almost forever so I decided to get back to my adventures in writing. *sarcasm alert*

Currently sitting in my office waiting room, awaiting the arrival of ... (the blog was left off here on Wednesday because of my brother's arrival)

So yeah, na bijli hai na wifi hai aur na kitchen me kaam kernay ko roshni hai tau hum ne kaha wapis ajayen mukkaatib honay ap sb se. *laughs at the "aap sab" bit"

When I left the blog on Wednesday my intention was to finish it off at home only that, when I got home it was time to cook, then it was time to eat, then it was time to clean and then time to sleep, you're getting the gist of it aren't you.

Thursday and Friday were pretty much the same, yesterday I had errands to run so yeah another no show. But here I am today, with time on my hands, sitting under the one running fan in the house. Waiting for the miraculous return of bijli so I could get some work done.

Sisila yeh hai k phupo tashreef la rahi hain iftaar p. So anyone who follows me on Twitter @bhandprogramme (the handle is a story for another time) would know my take on this phuppo business, so right about now I'm visibly displeased but trying to hide it as I try to get my head screwed on straight and get this iftaari cooking.

Maslaa Baa Khudaa phuppo se nahi hai, maslaa un ki zubaan k khulne aur chalne se hai, ik aisa kaam jo aksar ghalat waqt p hojaya kertaa hai. Khair ab tau aa rahi hain, achay aur shareef musalmano ki tarha paish tau ana hoga.

In other news a piece of mine was published in this week's T Mag, on this amazing chef, Samar Husain. You guys should definitely check that out.

Apart from that, Monday blues are hitting me hard. Khair I'm off
Ta!
