Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

The parents and teachers association of my old high school once put on a fashion show including saris. My mother was prevented from wearing one (by one of her best friends) on the grounds that they "wanted to show that white women could wear them too".

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'll wear a salwar kameez today instead.

My favorite.

But he got *so* many women reassuring him of his sensitivity, that maybe he was doing it right...

I roll my eyes forever. Goddamn Sensitive Men (tm).

Is also Guy Fawkes Day!

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

It is on my list of things to do in life to be in India during Holi. It looks EPIC.

If we'd missed our November deadline due to visa stuff, we were going to try for Holi. As it is we'll make the camel fair in Jaipur. (5 days OMG!!!)

I would've worn my Indian shirt today, but it's cold.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

The parents and teachers association of my old high school once put on a fashion show including saris. My mother was prevented from wearing one (by one of her best friends) on the grounds that they "wanted to show that white women could wear them too".

Wasn't it your mother's grandmother who was Indian?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I just ordered this knitting organizer thingy - I'm very excited about it.

I am very tired (had to come in early for a crisis) - I read that as a "kitten organizer." Which I need. And then I need some kittens to try it out.

Coding and Sleeping

Some idiot on Facebook posted a link to some gibberish about Obama's trip to India costing $400 million dollars and how he's going to be living in luxury with an entourage of 3,000 people and 34 warships and how wasteful it is so he can witness the Festival of Lights while everyday Americans are cutting their expenses

I read an article about that on the Fox News website. The first part of the article was talking about those numbers. The second part of the article was about people in the government saying how crazy the rumors are. 34 warships would be 3 carrier groups.
