The week to come

So, I've recovered pretty quickly thanks to some antibiotics and a tylenol like item. I've been hearing that the weather is still below 0 degrees windchill in Chicago. Odd as it may sound, I kinda miss it. Of course the weather here is nice, but after staying in San Jose for about 3 months I don't want to get to soft. I'm not complaining... ok maybe I am.

My friend Minesh is getting ready to get married. There's going to be some party tonight, rituals in the morning with a cocktail party tomorrow night. Finally, the main event is on the 7th. I'll make sure to charge up my camera and post pictures from the big day. From that day on, he will be a man who has confused bondage with love. When that day comes for me, please someone, make sure to remind me what the hell I'll be getting into.

Unexpected as it may seem, we have ESPN here, which happens to be tailored to the Indian audience with cricket and football (aka soccer in the States). Luckily I woke up in time to catch the last quarter of Super Bowl Xtra Large, Incomprehensibly soo... (guess that didn't work). Unluckily, a valid word as far as I care at this moment, Chicago lost. Woe is the fan that thought our offense would rock in comparison the man who has a Bears Hall of Famer's last name as his first. I actually had hopes of there being a possible two touchdown rush, but when an incompletion call happened on a 4th down with around 5 minutes left in the game, I knew I should move on. Hope went to despair to hope again, for the next year. Here's hoping we don't loose our defensive coordinator to the Cowboys, or loose any one really.

I hope Sensei and me recover as fast! Yeesh! We don't even travel across the world and we're getting sick. The air temperature was -9 F this morning -44 wind chill. How's the food?
