DH tells me I ought to write. Sis insists the same - the fact that her opinion carries professional credence does make me take the request rather seriously. My son's VERY supportive too - as long as it doesn't interfere with his material expectations of being fed, changed, entertained and comforted at all times when he's awake. Thankfully, the parents don't yet know what a blog is, else they'd be all over me before I could go 'Compose'. Yeah, you probably know how that goes....
So, why do I go all 1-line-cliche Shakes(in)feare on you? Because, I am an intensely private person - that's why. I joined Orkut back when it was invitation-only, circa 2005 and then got swallowed. I amassed a huge(by my standards) friend list ... you know, the ex-neighbour's MIL's cat's fiance's godchild kind and was bombarded with more information than I could process. Considering that information (technology) is how I earned my bread (and husband), that's nothing to sniff at. Lately my actual friends had stopped communicating via orkut... I wondered why, since most of my buddies are products of Indian engineering colleges, a group not particularly famous for it's reticence ( ((coughcoughwink)) Chetan Bhagat) and everything including breakfast menu and pet's tummy bug was fair game for orkut publication. Dear Sis kindly enlightened me that the action was currently at FB. So, there I landed about a couple months ago. May I say, OMG!!!!! ?? This is like, so abso-freakingly super-awesome!! Dude, you guys must totally see how cool this place is!!! I can like farm , check my horoscope, calculate my IQ, you know, do sooo much of stuff , it's unbelievable! it's so cool!! what? it kills brain cells? no, dummy... brains don't have cells... they are made of some grey stuff.. whatchamacallit? cere- something or cele-something... yeah i think it's cellulose. so no, brain cells don't die.. duh!
I rest my case ;)
