| I am at gym and I am bored. One day I will write about the gym guy from last year. I want to become the gym rat I was last year. I will get on it once I am back from Kenya.
So we spoke with this person who is local to find out more about the situation we will be going into. He said seeing a computer is like landing on the moon for the kids. Most of the kids come to school because they provide lunch. Remember India was in a similar state, and definitely some remote areas still are. Get kids to come to school for food. Primary school is free. I have three more lessons to go. Still waiting for my visa.
It still has not sunk in. My team doesn't realize I will be gone soon even though I have been saying it every week.
So the other day I meet the CEO in the elevator. I ask him how he was and he said good and you? I said " doing good for a Monday" then I raked my head to say something. I knew I could. And nope nothing came. A minute after he left it struck me. He is talking at the conference tomorrow I could have asked him if he was ready or something! What a waste. And ya what was that "doing good for a Monday"? He said good and I said this. I am pretty sure his head is filled with more important stuff and he is more under fire. Bleah, whatever.
Yesterday JSK wanted a baby brother, like 'today, right now' ;--P Turns out all her friends have a baby brother or baby sister and they are all big sisters and big brothers and she wants to be one too. Ooook. I asked her if she was ready to share everything she had with someone else. I guess this is expected. I used to her tell her she has B Anna and R thambi who are her cousin and friend respectively. But then now she knows brother or sister should 'live in your house' which they don't. This topic has come up quite often in the past week. After the Ikea incident I told DH aren't you glad we have only one of this kind ;--P JSK will be a pampered only child. She will be a bit lonely and miss having a sibling, she will get a doggie. She will have to make do with cousins. I am not having a child just because she will be lonely. That is not a reason to bring another child into the world when you know you won't do justice to both the kids. I had JSK to experience motherhood. Frankly I am not the best mom around. Too selfish. It is enough I have one child who calls me mom. May be, just may be, we may adopt another child later if we are up for it.
How will JSK and DH manage without me. It is only for three weeks. But I will miss the little monster. And DH. Very much. And they will miss me too. Is it worth it? Two different people inside me. One that signs me up for these things and the other that doesn't want to change anything. We might go on a short safari. Growling lions hope we get to see you! Giraffes! I will miss my pattu. Giraffe is her favorite animal.
The Martian movie was awesome. Although, the book kinda stole the movie's thunder. Reviews say the movie did justice to the book, but all the technical mumbo jumbo that really got me hooked to the book were not really expressed as well in the movie. But i enjoyed it. Next to actually go to Mars sometime. ;--P Elon wants to nuke Mars to increase the temperature of the planet to make it inhabitable. Crazy guy. I am looking for more space movies and I don't see any that are not old style Star Trek in horrible resolution. Any recommendations?
See, time just flew by on the cycle typing. Bye!
