my sleep ran away

listenin to: michael buble

you know how there are those moments that you remember at the arbest times and they drive you into peals of laughter? well this picture is a good intro to one of those. i really have not been able to sleep lately. and then i remembered this moment, when our news team found ourselves waiting for a flight from rome to tunis. yes, the insanity of it all. we had to travel to europe to come right back to africa. anyway... i was lucky enough to be travelling with a friend of mine, cas. he was the designer on the team for that project. after the pe-jbrg-ethiopia-rome journey we were thoroughly exhausted and literally ready to collapse during the 8 hour wait at crummy rome international. yes, it was not as bourgeoise as it had sounded. so we literally put down our hand luggage and fell asleep. when i woke up, about 2 hours into my comatose nightmare i saw people starring at me. yep, just standing around looking at us. maybe because as my head rested against my back pack, and i clutched my salman rushdie, i looked like a missing person gone way wrong. anyway, as i tried to save my dignity and ignore those nasty people as much as i could-i thought i must shoot a pic of cas, lest he not believe we had made such a spectacle of our indian selves.

in other recent news, my folks and prithan came down to visit me this weekend. it was great to see them again, even if it was a little short. and nice to have family (hint hint levs) visit me in a place i've been for ages now. ok i feel the sleepy mist settling. let me grab it while i can.

today i like: i gave in... i have the new snow patrol album...hmmmm bliss... and surprises on their way home.
today i dislike: tomorrow is monday
