HELLO again !

Yes, i am guilty for my long absence. Its pardonable, of course. My writings on this blog affects only me . So I can not prosecute myself, for promising to write and failing to do so! I was in hibernation for no specific reason. I think I was depressed, or was I happy ! Cant explain, so i will let it pass. So where was I, during my last blog post.

Yes, I was in Plano, TX. Trying to keep myself cheerful in that morose town. Nothing to do, nowhere to visit! My imagination of US of A was taking a beating. I had thought of tall skyscrapers, jazzy clubs, punks and tramps, snowfalls........and Plano was devoid of all this. It was a place for retired folk, for people to hide in obscurity after all their wordly sins....it was not a place for me. Cause lord, let me sin first and then come to plano for divine ablution !Saying so, I headed to the west coast. A bit north as well.

Now, I am in Seattle. The city that I am falling in love with. New people, new project, new client, new challenges, new chaos, .....Sunny today, wet tomorrow,....

I arrived here on 4th October and since then have not spent a weekend at home. Its a crime, if you stay back. Have been to Mount Rainier, The snoqualmie falls, the BOEING factory, the PIKE PLACE MARKET. Love the downtown! Seattle is home to some major corporations - Microsoft (my current workplace, it looks like little india out here), BOEING, Nordstorm, STARBUCKS...and maybe more!

For someone like me, who has stayed almost all his life in Bombay, the weather here is a blessing. Its like Bangalore, a bit more chillier! But unlike the east coast, like NY, where my friends say, the weather is biting cold!

Today is halloween. At the Microsoft campus, I am told that children would scamper around, and say, trick or treat....I had got a few candy pieces, I ate them all ! The children would hate me, for sure !
