Stiff Nipple Temperature at work!

*brrrrrrrrrr*

*cant feel nose*

Ooh much news!

My friend got a new job and really good salary and as a Manager. He offered me a post as AM and I can demand the money too

*yay*

Also where I am currently - I got my appraisal ( not money but ratings) and got "Outstanding" with the comment "ready for the next level"

This is great!

I dont wanna Jinx my good luck so "touche"

But things seem to be moving towards something good..

Future looks a lil better !

Have a good weekend ya all and dont miss Narnia- Prince Caspian

Yesterday there were 8 bomb blasts in the Historical City of Jaipur( 3 hours drive from my city)

It seems a Islamic terrorist group has taken ownership of the blasts.

Why?

Why kill innocent people?

Those heartless inhuman pathetic beings who belive they are fighting a Holy war (Jihad).

When had god ever dictated violence and death of innocent people as being 'Holy'?

So many people dead- husbands, wives,mothers,daughters,sons,family- all dead ; and for what? for what?

Nothing!

just some twisted mentally sick people's idea of a recreation.

I say bomb the damned people!

India doesnt kill anyone,nor does it interfere.

Why do we have to go through it all?

Because we are surrounded by Pakistan,Bangladesh and terrorists use this locational advantage to strike political discord and try to ruin us.

Well YOU WILL NEVER BREAK OUR WILL,NEVER.

We are survivors and will always survive ,no matter how much you try.

I have been sick for sometime now and when I was in the US recently it was BAD.

I managed to scrape through with some OTC medicines there.

What was wrong?

Well I couldnt eat anything my digestive system was err off its rocker and will NOT agree with any food I consumed.

Needless to say it was exhausting.

* some joked that after Indian pollution ,American clean fresh air doesnt suit me anymore*

*har har har*

So, when I return to India I get poked and prodded for Zillion tests last week

1.Blood Test
2.Thyroid Test
3.Liver Function Test
4.Ultrasound of the Abdomen
5.Stool tests

WHew! i cant remember the rest.

The result?

AH well the Haemoblobin is low by .01% but the rest is ALL NORMAL!

So what was wrong with me? I have been suffering this for a few months now on and off..

Doc feels I have suddenly developed Lactose Intolerence because most of my "eposides" occuer after I consumed milk/milk products.

and the Second reason she feels is that I am over stressed and over worked and need of R &R.

Well now.. I cant eat Pizzas,Mexican food or drink milk or consume Ice creams blah blah!

All that US has to offer is food with Cheese in it.. unless I cook or be the weird one asking for a Burrito with no cheese please!

Anyway!

I feel better back here now since diet in India doesnt inlcude much of Dairy products but pulses,grains,beans,vegetables etc.

Ooh in other News:

Bro is getting a Job In Tanzania(Dar E salaam) which i am excited about since its a good opportunity.*prays he gets it*

and

Monsieur has quit my company and 15th May is his last day here

*will miss him horsing around*

.. Blame the Indian population for increased consumption of food which is responsible for Food Price inflation in USA .
.. let me just....

*wipes tears*

*laughs so hard it hurts*

WASHINGTON: US President George Bush has joined his top diplomat in suggesting that the growing prosperity of India's large middle class is contributing to rising food prices around the world ...

"So, for example, just as an interesting thought for you, there are 350 million people in India who are classified as middle class. That's bigger than America. Their middle class is larger than our entire population.

"And when you start getting wealth, you start demanding better nutrition and better food. And so demand is high, and that causes the price to go up," said Bush joining his top diplomat Condoleezza Rice in suggesting India's role in the world food crisis.

http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/Economy/Bush_blames...

Now I as an Indian will blame US for increased cost of Beef,Chicken and Cheese,milk,coffee,electronics,processed food blah blah because they consume more of it than India

Dont know when I 'll be back again

I am flying back to India tonight! its a 15 hour nonstop to delhi( ARRRRRRRGH)

15 hours os sitting in a cramped Economy class seat * prays to god for a miraculous upgrade to business*

Nothing much to do now except wait.

OOh I over heard this HILARIOUS conversation between 2 men( indian)

The older guy to younger guy at the hotel

Older: I dont know you you manage toilet here.I cant .It feels uncomfortable and unhygenic not washing but wiping.

Younger : gives an uncomfortable laugh!

Mehides a snigger)

Okay so us indians use wash in toilets like europeans use a Bidet!

and that dear folks is my so called exciting life

I was chatting with my school buddy in oregon today and she told me a sad news.

My Teacher in school passed away yesterday.

She was a great teacher and the best one I had ever known.

She enouraged the underdog to perform ,unlike most teachers who always prefer to teach those who are the A+ category students.

I remember she helped me through my crazy years between 14-16 when I was beaten up by a man and then mum and I were on the run.

I was also terrible in Maths and instead of making me feel worthless and a lame brain like others would do she encouraged me to excel and do better..

I did try my best.. when I cleared out of school and even managed to scrape pass marks in Maths she was so happy she congratulated me instead of trying to ignore it ..

I never knew a single student who had anything bad to say about her..

She was young with school going kids and I knew she was diagnosed with cancer and last I spoke to her maybe 2 years ago... Wish I had spoken to her once more..

God bless her and her family!

I am (unfortunately) watching some Rock of Love thing!

Lets see where and why do i find this "reality" fake show ridiculous?

Well lets say fake blonde's with fake boobs for one thing and oh dear me they all are "In love" with the man in show..

I mean yeah right.. i'd say I love you if you paid me a few millions & put me on TV.. but obviously I am dreaming green notes when I say 'love you' and make out.

and these folks try to make it look umm 'soulful and meaningful'

Those dreary (i feel like taking a tweezer and pluck my bikini line painful) meaningful conversations which bascially revolve around the Man staring at Women's boobs and woman trying to sound 'oh so intellegent and sincere'.

Plus the man is in a win win situation! gets to lay 2 blonde's all in the name of finding "his perfect woman"

Ooh and we have a stripper in the show who feels that she is doing the most intellectual job in the world..

sorry to be judgemental but someone tell VH1 to stop torturing people

God hated women i guess.. or loved too darned much in his twisted way..

* lazes in bed with beer*

Drat cant even take my soak.. oh wait I can * plans*

I feel it.. I have been cosntantly feeling sick and my body feels tired and i get tummy upsets and over all feel tired.

To me its stress taking its toll... since december I have (darn it) been under tremendous amount of stress.

My job on the line, no leave /break constant flying and jet lag and work pressures to meet deadlines and oh yeah no personal life..

Nothing.

I have to admit I slept with Monsieur again a few weeks ago.. I will not make any excuses.

I just wanted.. for a while to feel appreciated.

I now need a break .

Oh forgot to tell you all that just a week ago my brother got a call from some anonymous man threatning to kill/kidnap me.

I have no idea who he is or whats the reason for his threats but brother thinks its my EX's doing.

I just was so upset and Monsieur was there to help me and he did ask me loads of times if he was taking advantage but I know he wasnt. I was fully aware of my actions.

So today when speaking to my Mum and she was advising a break because she knows I have been feeling sick since January when I was in Madrid.

I felt like taking a break in a place close to Pune which is called "Silent Valley"

Its really really amazing place on a mountain near a lake.

Nothing but nature around the resort and not a single moving car ..

Infact the road to it is very rustic and bad because it hardly has any one but villagers.

I love the place .. its so beautiful..

Imagine waking up to lush green and a lake and you are on a mountain side and can actually see caves.

I want the break

Picture.. err no dont picture this.

I am in a bathtib with lilac bath salts .. Stella- beer not some woman, and Nachos!

Oh and a book "A thousand Splendid Suns"

Life feels a lot better and i feel relaxed.. aah!

Well it seems all the stress and tension and over work has now caught up with me 'cause am down with fever and have 3 weeks of non stop work in Nj and another 3 weeks in India without any scope of a sick leave.

Meno just called me and we had an amazing chat.

She is so vibrant even mopey old me felt chirpier after speaking with her.

*Love and kisses Meno*

You are an inspiration!

Its been like High tide and low tide.

I got a call from Hr stating they are doing a background check on me since they received a tip off that I have faked all documentation.

They also told me I should not expect much and start looking out for jobs, Monsieur was with me helping me pack up for my New Jersey trip.

I just broke down.( okay tried to control since I dont like to cry with audience )

Anyway, He was considerate and didnt look the least bit uncomfortable with me cryi ng truck loads.

Even got on call with some consultants to refer me to jobs and tried to make me laugh and snap out of the moping and work on something constructive.

So I landed at work when I should be packing spoke to the VP who had no idea this was being done and instantly called the head of HR to talk.

He reassured me things will be fine( I hope so)

Either way I am in New Jersey and here for 3 weeks and even after I go back they cant fire me since they will desperately need me for next 2 months atleast.

Over all I have time to search for new jobs!

PS: thank you Monsieur for being there

PS: I still bloody hell love you

Hey

This is an actual letter sent to Proctor and Gamble from Wendi Aarons, Austin, TX, regarding their feminine products. She really gets rolling after the first paragraph . . .

Dear Mr. Thatcher,

I have been a loyal user of your Always Maxi
Pads for over 20 years and I appreciate many of their features. Why,
without the LeakGuardCore(tm) or Dri-Weave(tm) absorbency, I'd probably never go horseback riding salsa dancing, and I'd certainly steer clear of running up and down the beach in tight, white shorts. But my favorite feature has to be your revolutionary Flexi-Wings. Kudos on being the only company smart enough to realize how crucial it is that maxi pads be aerodynamic. I can't tell you how safe and secure I feel each month knowing there's a little F-16 in my pants.

Have you ever had a period, Mr. Thatcher? Ever suffered from "the curse"? I'm guessing you haven't. Well, my "time of the month" is starting right now. As I type, I can already feel hormonal forces violently surging through my body. Just a few minutes from now, my body will adjust and I'll be transformed into what my husband likes to call "an inbred hillbilly with knife skills".

Isn't the human body amazing? As Brand Manager in the Feminine-hygiene Division, you've no doubt seen quite a bit of research on what exactly happens during your customers' monthly visits from "Aunt Flo". Therefore, you must know about the bloating, puffiness, and cramping we endure, and about our intense mood swings, crying, and out-of-control behaviour. You surely realize it's a tough time for most women. In fact, only last week, my friend Jennifer fought the violent urge to shove her boyfriend's testicles into a George Foreman Grill just because he told her he thought Grey's Anatomy was written by drunken chimps. Crazy!

The point is, sir, you of all people must realize that America is just crawling with homicidal maniacs in Capri pants...which brings me to the reason for my letter.
Last month, while in the throes of cramping so painful I wanted to reach inside my body and yank out my uterus, I opened an Always maxi-pad, and there, printed on the adhesive backing, were these words: "Have a Happy Period."

Are you f**king kidding me? Does any part of your tiny middle-manager brain really think happiness - actual smiling, laughing happiness is possible during a period? Did anything mentioned above sound the least bit pleasurable? Well, did it, James? FYI, unless you're some kind of sick S&M freak, there will never be anything "happy" about a day in which you have to jack yourself up on Motrin and Kahlua and lock yourself in your house just so you don't march down to the local Kmart armed with a hunting rifle and a sketchy plan to end your life in a blaze of glory.

For the love of God, pull your head out, man! If you just have to slap a moronic message on a maxi pad, wouldn't it make more sense to say something that's actually pertinent, like "Put Down the Hammer" or "Vehicular Manslaughter Is Wrong", or are you just picking on us?

Sir, please inform your Accounting Department that, effective immediately, there will be an $8 drop in monthly profits, for I have chosen to take my maxi-pad business elsewhere. And though I will certainly miss your Flex-Wings, I will not for one minute miss your brand of condescending bull sh**. And that's a promise I will keep.
Best Always,
Wendi Aarons
Austin, TX

What better to deal with problems than drown yourself in work..

Drown i did.. infact so much that I am close to cracking now.

I work on stuff i ususally work on, rework some team members work, prepare stuff for a colleague, prepare documentation for boss, do quality evaluations, front end the clients and the list goes on and oh involved in training too..

Plus now I have one more project given to me and I need to study on that too since I am to fly to New jersey on 12th April 08.

I am exhausted!

I need a break but will probably work the weekend too

I know I know.. I have cried for probably a trillion times by now..

Am sorry If I do it once again..

I dont feel too positive about the furture.. not at all.

Why?

I have blabbed all my problems in the past and will not bore with repetition.

I feel wound up real tight with no scope of release. Ever!

Bro calls saying he wants to chuck mum out as he feels she is a liability because of her emotional issue.

LOL Yeah well this is what he feels about the woman who sold everything to pay for his studies and brought him up.

I didnt get a good education because mum didnt have money left.. ( oops I am repeating)

Anyway..

I just want this to end.. Please!

Monsieur.... He actually lent me loads of money today..

Came to me and told me i was biggest @ss for not asking for help..

I did ask him for help and he already has helped so much I didnt want to ask for more

He has done the following in the past months

* taken my baggage and personal belongings to his house when I had no place to live and was in USA

*paid half for the house I just rented( he wanted to pay it all but I couldnt ask him to)

*drove around town with me searching for a house taking one hour off work and rescheduling his work to help me

*help me move in

*hug me when I was depressed

*scold me for shopping when I was in US

* had to bear his parents and Brother's obsitnate attitude for lending me things and even keeping my bags at his parents house

and now just when I needed help, He again came to my rescue.

I cant thank him enough

Thats the Indian Rupee equivalent amount left in my bank this month.

My brother lives a good life since I end up paying for everything in 2 places. My own place here and for him and Mum too in another city.

I have 2 meals a day because .. well I dont have the necessary cash to be honest!

I am this broke because I had to pay for the house I rented and for the house bro and Mum live in.

Ofcourse Bro feels I can Manage anything.. well he never had to manage in a pound for next 6 days has he.

*wants to knock sense into with with a dumbbell*

He also called last night to tell me he is sending mum to live with Me and he will move into a smaller place which he can pay for! Ooh Joy!

I dont believe he is being sensible, he just wants mum out so he can live carefree and mess with that stupid bitchy ex Girlfriend of his who claims she has his baby( married to someother man )

anyway , it will save me money.

I can have mum over and get a bigger place and still save money.

Drat!

am hungry so will get some small snack..

PS: if it werent for he who must not be named I wouldnt have been able to survive at all.. God bless him for helping me
