I have missed blogging. I have missed DSS. And I know I was missed as well. For those of you who dropped me notes on blogs and sent me mails..etc, thanks a ton for your concern. I must say it does feel good to be missed. I am well and kicking, perhaps I have been a bit too sane these past few days.
I need the madness of this old asylum to replenish me.
I see a lot of new people…and I recognize a particular new shoe or is that ‘ashoe’?? Again…welcome buddy to DSS…although a bit late. Ashoe found me on flickr and informed me that he had joined in as well!! I was overjoyed that inspite of being on vacation, I was subconsciously recruiting people to the yaya sisterhood.
It does feel good to be coming out of hibernation. I hope the rather serious and important business of being silly has not been neglected on the scrawls. ![]()
And now….all my bags are packed, I am ready to go……already I am so lonesome I could cry…. ![]()
No honestly…I am not just crooning an old song. My bags are packed and I am ready to go. I don’t want to go. I will be away from home and hubby for Halloween, Diwali, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year’s and Sankranthi….That’s too long, but now its too late to change my mind. I am both anxious and curious about Bangalore. I asked my dad if I’d be able to go home from the airport and he laughed at me. I still don’t know what he meant, yes or no…well, a couple of days more and I’ll know for myself. Anyhow, I land on the 3rd. and am looking forward to Mom’s Kutub Shahi Korma. I do hope the Rangashankara Festival is going on as planned and more importantly, I pray that some tickets are available. I asked Dad to buy some tickets and loads of firecrackers as well. I have been craving the smell of pataaki and the noise of diwali.
My mum in law is making all my favorite snacks as well…Bless her heart!!
So hold-aen bengloor, here I come!! 
Too bad I won’t be home to scare the trick-a-treat-ers ![]()
Oh and before I forget, a great big
to y’all….

So, now you folks know ...
… whom to blame! For my abrupt and disruptive appearance here, of course
Found the link (to DSS) via Chaya’s blog/flickr stream, looked interesting enough, and joined right up. Lack of preferred username notwithstanding
Although I’ve been getting used to ‘ashoe’ for months now - at blogspot and at flickr!
Anyway, welcome back, and glad you had a good (although way-too-sane!) break! Ohh - and enjoy the trip to the land of (B’)Lore!
Just another dyslexic desi

U'r missed chay!
Ever since you are away chay, the overall number of smilies as well as comments has declined to spiritually unacceptable, intellectually undismissable levels:)
Anyways, have a gala time; have our share of sweets, crackers and fun too! We know you will have a million blogs ready when you are back, and I guess that will make up for this absence;)
Smileyz-less Chay ??
Chaai,
For a moment I was worried when I didn’t see any smileyz in the “excerpt” that gets displayed on the main page.. Chay’s post without any smiley ?? It can’t be happening I said to myself.. But my anxiety was shortlived..coz when I clicked on “Read More” I saw the generous sprinkling of smileyz & I felt relieved knowing that everything is hale n hearty at Chay’s end.. Same ole Chay alrite !!
Herez wishing U
“Naan Sirithaal Deepavali”..
“Naan Sirithaal Halloween”
“Naan Sirithaal Thanxgiving”
“Naan Sirithaal Christmas”
“Naan Sirithaal Sankranthi”
Going back for 4/5 months ?? Any Good News Eh
Have safe trip back home.. & do comeback with truckloads of Pics.. Happy Clicking..
