19 - 0....NOT!!!!..and much more..
So as the titile of the blog..Superbowl this year was awesome..the Giants who were close to be scrapped..went ahead and won all their road games..and was matched up against the yet to be defeated NE Pats...i was actually kinda stunned after coming back from India and taking a look at the contenders..was sure that the Pats would be in the Superbowl..but never expected the wild card Giants to make it through and win the darn thing! Anyways..this was a game worth watching..although I had to watch from home..as D was sick!..will get into that soon..back to the game..E.Manning escaping the sure sack..and then throwing a 30something yard to D.Tyree which later was converted into a touchdown and the decisive play of the game....was happy for the Giants..and man if i had just put some money on the big blue....:(
So as far as why I was watching from home...D became violently sick around 3 days before Superbowl..and was admitted into the hospital for suffering from Vertigo..what is funny was i had read a movie review which kinda stated that the movie would give vertigo to people due to the camera angle...anyways..so she didnt go to work..and was home...with me also being home..and doing the chores while the poor soul had a chance to recover...but she's again fallen ill for the past couple of days with a nasty cough..which the lilguy and myself seem to have gotten now..the lilguy was whimpering all night long yday..felt bad..but he wanted to just stick to me and sleep!!!..this being the case..i am not in the greatest mood for anything!!
We had some good snow on Friday going into Saturday..worked from home..but after cleaning the driveway..during which I had, at one point, drag the deadweight snowplow from the bottom of the hill to refuel..because i procrastinated!!..I took the lilguy to build a snowman....it was fun..as it was my first snowman too!!!..HOpefully we'll be able to slide down the hill next time it snows after i get the sled!!
Got the tax returns done..am not too happy that big brother is eating half of what I make!!..getting a smaller refund than last year..but hopefully looking for the bailout check too!!..plans are still underway for going to Qatar..but will not be going direct flight as originally thought..
Lilsis is coming to Boise for a short term assignment starting march 1st..she'll be travelling half way across the world to get to it..and the pops was not pleased to say the least..bcos kinda jepordizes the marraige scene

2008...
December was a bummer for us..the lilguy fell sick almost every other week and his ear infection really took a bite out of his playful nature! That didnt make me feel any better - was sick quite often too.
New Years was at Anils - got drunk silly and barfed my way into New Years!! My god..never felt so awful since college! And to top it - the chicken dish that was left over destroyed my intestines just two days before i was supposed to leave for india..luckily there were no health issues during the trip..
The trip went good although two weeks is a very short time! Our flight to Bombay was good..but with the delay b/w Bombay and Calicut, the starting of the vacation was not what i'd planned. Definitely am not doing a Bombay leg for any of the future trips. Unni was at peak form in the plane and was very cooperative..very unlike what everyone portrayed young kids on planes to be...Trip was good, no untoward incidents noted but after getting back..all three of us crashed for the first two days!!..actually still a little drowsy as the lilguy was up for 3 hours in the night after 2AM.
The lilguy really transformed from the quite lilangel to the lilmonster he really is!! From what I can say..he had the most fun as he got whatever he wanted with his bua and really took to his Mutthachi and Mutthachan. Even before we left for India, he had something for his acchachan but the fact that he couldnt always get what he wanted made him turn towards his acchama.. It was a good thing that he was able to pronounce the word acchama before the end of the trip or I think it would have been unjust to meow!! He really took to the open environment and also to the hordes of people around him..felt good to see him walk and run!
Other than that, the inlaws visited Parijat bring along with them two friends, who turned out to be Jains. There were some pure comical moments during the 1 week stay - but come on..a jain in a mallu house..its disaster waiting to happen!! Dad took them to a lot of places..but i felt that they overdid a little bit. We had cooks cooking northie food in the outhouse and the rest of the food being cooked seperately in the second kitchen..was quite a hassle.
Anyways..we are planning to go to Doha during early September to stay there for a week. This way D can see where I grew up. Its costly not to say the least..around $3698 for ticket for two+1! And then will do a yearly trip to India going forward..
Sis's marraige plans are not panning out..but just learnt that she'll be in the US for a project someplace in Idaho! I would like for her to be in the tri-state area but am aware of the fact that she'll not make much mollah staying here! I will talk with her tonight..
