Felt like a big biscuit ...

I was just reading Dr. Shirin's live journal (which she hasn't updated since April -- pppffft! I mean, really now, I know you WERE in med school but COME on! ;)) and she uses the subject phrase -- when one feels like a big biscuit, it basically implies that they feel dumb, or so Shirin says! [btw, shout out to them med school GRADS --- Drs. Ali and Coray!]

ANYHOO! Why did I feel so? I've spent the last two days trying to organize, clean, pack - and have not made any real progress. Realized that I should have thought of all of this nonsense months ago, and started to weed out the crap from the useful stuff. Why am I such a pack rat? Why does a ticket stub from "Chicken Run" back in the summer of 2000 mean so much to me that I can't just throw it out!!! Why do I have napkins from random Bangalore establishments that honestly meant nothing to me!! Becuase I'm a pack rat - and rats know no better. BUT no more I say - NO more ... gone is the chicken run ticket stub (cool movie btw!)-GONE is the random napkin. And I still have the memories -- Alhamdullilah!

So, the progress is slow but steady ... I'm gaining momentum here. I would post pics of the progress, but they are kinda horrifying so since I don't want to scar anyone here - I shall refrain.

Besides that, the last couple of days have been kinda blah. Just packing, etc. Got to hang out w/some of ma'peeps which was awesome - just got back from dinner w/Nori and Ina -- they're so awesome! We ate at a little Cajun place in Adams Morgan called New Orleans Cafe - it was pretty cool. Crispy fried Okra - mmm- gotta love the okra YO! haven't had that in a while ... will be stuffin' my face with it when I'm home though. mm mm good.

Is this a pointless blog or what?!

Hope fully in a couple of days I'll have more to say. Until then ... BLUG.
