Aug 05, Thu, moms birthday

Wednesday, Aug 05 2010
----------------------

woke up lazy as hell, body needing more rest after two days of different work out and reading the novel well into the night.

Made it to work by 7 in time for Conf with India.

Around 8 called up Home to wish mom on her Birth day, ended up talking with dad and got to know that mom had gone to the neighboring house of her cousin. Rather her Grand dads house.
So called them up and talked with cousin sreji and spooked her by changing my voice and asking personal family questions. She as ever the one who never takes things laying down, got agressive and abusive to what she thought was a crank call. hehehe, it was nice to see she still had that live wire spirit.

And then she turned to the sweet person she is and wanted to know when I was coming to get married.

Latter, talked with me mom and wished her. :)

Feeling home sick now ahhh

11:45 completed Project Management Test using Brainbench. got 3.25 , 5 down, 4 more to go.

Need to buy a gift for Narayan for his Birthday, planning on visiting him on sat and then have to go to temple too..... long time.
Ahhh how I wish that I could just go back home and visit all the family, just visit, no pressure to marry or anything like that.

Afternoon return back for lunch. was supposed to go with a few guys, then I opted out as there was not enough space for 6 guys in muralis new car.

Tried calling Eva a few times, did not pick up the phone.. well must be busy or must be delibrately doing it as its part of her culture and life to ignore people who care. But will always complain about how other people are so bad and how different its in her own culture, coming from someone who has no clue as to what her own culture is. Maybe that is the problem with most of the western people, they did not grow up with information and knowledge of their own culture and are always looking at other peoples culture and finding it fascinating. Thou she grew up at the same place for more than 25 years, never heard her say that she had a friend in her own neighborhood. Thats such a sad thing.

Around afternoon tested the Associate ph # button with the older version I took a back up with. worked on my machine but not on server.

4pm Then was brain storming and bach said Ajy had the similar problem and it was related to the new patch of software that was causing it.

Pinged ajy on the chat and he told me the remdy, after that it seems to work.

Checked out the proj, made modification and then checked back in. yeaaa thats another issues down. out at 7:30pm,, phew really did some work today.

In between 1pm and 3pm when others were out ended up calling the Dept of labour to complain about the non-payment of wages when I worked in NY. Tried the NY no and got thru to a sweet and caring sounding lady Agnes , wow, she was so nice and telling me so many things, I would have asked her to marry me.

Then she said that since my employer is based in VA state, I should try to call them up and complain, Then she gave me her direct phone number. waaaawu. I am so impressed by her.

Started a series of calls, from one dept to another and in the end reached the LAbour law dept. Who guided me to go and fill up a form from their web site. Was filling up the form when I noticed that they do not handle cases where the contract was performed out side VA state. bummer. so called up Agnes again she gave me her email and asked me to send her the documents.


8pm went for a ride to Khols to check out the shop, then to Ross and then to Wall mart. back home and crashed on the bed.

woke up around 10:30pm and cooked long sting beans with turmeric powder and meat masala. yummy..
