Am I back??

Whoooooo...!!! Been a long long time since I had the inclination to blog. I see my last blog was on St. Valentine's Day this year. Seems an eon ago, what with so many events happening in between. A quick recap of what I had happen in my life since February 14th, 2006:

Found a girl (or rather, my elders did), talked with her & her family, chatted with her, liked her, loved her, got engaged to her, spoke & chatted with her even more, fixed a date for the wedding.... all this without ever setting eyes on her once. For those of you for whom arranged marriages are nothing new, you know the fun in this process. For those of you in the dark about this system of marriage, eat your hearts out!!! A week before the wedding was when I finally met my sweetheart. And then, BOY!!, was it tough to get that 1 week of separation out of the way.

That was the life-changing event in the past 9 months. Apart from that, things have been pretty normal... classes, semesters coming and going, meeting project deadlines, writing research papers, winning a NASA Fellowship (no joke, I did!!). But somehow, I just couldn't find the inspiration to write, my inspiration running in other directions, as it were. But now, like a few other things, I think I'll make it a point to be regular here too. So, as the song goes - "Hasta Manana until then"
