Dec 02 2011 Friday, 2 more sleeps to dls

Friday, Dec 02 2011

Have two more sleeps before heading off to Dls on sunday morning...... Again back to the Gypsy life of moving every 4 months. well atleast I am traveling around and in Dls will be having couple of very good, loyal, sincere, trust worthy friends. Thou they are all married.

But what the hell beats been in htfld and lnsdl area with just the geese, goose and gander.

Ok got to be thankful and greatful to all the travel opportunities I keep getting, most people can only dream of this or fantazie about this.

hahaha right now again living in a hotel... by the airport, listening to the flight taking off into distant lands carrying passengers to exotic lands and dream vacations, honeymoon, disney world..... just thinking about the happines of these people is making me smile from ear to ear. yeaaa cheers to happiness and spreading goodness around.

Getting bored sitting in the hotel room. Not interested in watching TV, guess living without one for so long has weened me away from TV addiction.

what to do, what to do. walk to the airport?

Dec 01 2011, moving out of the house

Thursday Dec 01 2011

Moving out of the house into a hotel after 4 months.
handing over the keys by 9am, shutting down my bank account and wait for 3 more days to fly out.

handed the keys by 9:30 went to dunkin donuts and had coffee. got the card punched for 8th time so the next one is free.
Called up aji to see if we could meet and talk, seems to be busy said would meet me in dallas.
Then went to costco, sat in the parking and mediated.

Then went in and saw a good shirt brought it and then had a chicken wrap kind of thing.

Was driving back to the Dunkin doughnuts when I got a call from sant, damm right bearer of the bad news.... evil to the core. Called to say that there was a mail from nimsh about the client getting back to him about the project been put off.

hmmmmm what a good timing.. I am out of the apartment moving to a hotel and suddenly no project in dals.... ahhhhh that would leave me in the middle of no where.

tried calling raj ,, who returned the call around 9pm. said would talk to nimsh.. got back from salsa at par and saw the mail from nimsh asking me to look for another proj and get in contact with the movers to have my stuff moved to where ever I am going to be based.

replied back saying that since my stuff has already moved and I am in transit, might as well continue as planned.



Wednesday Nov 30 2011

Got to book a hotel close to the airport.
tried driving around in the Avenger,,, great pick up, feels much smoother than my own car, guess its 15 years of technology.

9pm meeting again gets put off as nim was not able to come on it .
got call from sri regarding his start off dates and other lil things. hes got a 5 year old son too.

Guess these guys will be in for a rude shock after meeting me and my single life of jumping around and not been in any committed relationship.

Nov 29 2011 Tues, Empty house

Tuesday, Nov 29 2011,

Got back home late from van go , tried to pack a few stuff.
woke up early around 5am and started with the packing and organizing.

around 8:30am the movers come in and man it coincides with the conf call meeting .

for some reason the conf got put off as Nim was not able to come. latter when checking the net, saw the bankruptcy filing by the co I am about to go to in dal.
good god this is a kind of blind siding.

well my stuff is moving and so am I. things have been set into motion.

Give the remaining 7 bottles of carona beer and the packet of lays chips to the moving guys.

around 11 get call from the guy coming to get my car... so booked rental at the airport so that I could drop it off there.

around 12:25 the guy with the tow truck comes from Delaware and the compiles a list of dents and scratches on my car and gives me the document.

Around 1 try to call up the guys to see if anyone could drop me off at the airport or to the closest rail station. none seem to pick up the call. damm fkrs.

then ajy returned the call after I walked 3 miles to the rail station ,, damm rain.
told him that I am already in the station and if I am not able to make it will call him back for help.

got to the airport by 4:50 and got the car... driving back was one hell of a screw up in the sever rain and road conditions at the peak office hours and with sun setting around 4:30 every thing was eerily dark.

Friday, Nov 25 2011

called up a potential vendor of cog to see if they could move my stuff out by 29th. have to wait out the weekend.

continue pking

Thanks giving day.

initiated the re loc.
Finished with the bking of flght, htl, car.

working on pking.

evening around 6pm drive out and on a crazy thought drive to wal mart and find it open. was surprised to see people there.
Enter in to find out that they are starting the thanks giving sale by 10pm and 12 midnight.

walk around and see the lines of people queuing up for the video consols and TVs. wow. my first time ever to see all these in 11 years of living in the Americas.

Slowly see the piles of Gujjus and many other indians making game plans to get out the max benifit. families spliting up and standing in different queues. wow. And then was surprised to see people speaking Araby also there with their families and kids. along with latin americans who did not seem much organized and calculating as the indians were.

Got to see cops come in to try and control the crowd where a waffle maker was been sold for $2. Was wondering have all the gujjus who eat dal rice and roti started eating waffles and syrup after coming to US or were they planning on becoming waffle eater? hahaha that would be funny. Or maybe they are going to use it to make chappathis or dosas.

Anyways non of them were listening the cops shouting and it was like a scene out of india at the ration shop where every one is crowding in and the strongest gets to make it to the top and grab the tool.

Hanging around there I end up buying 3 wrangler jeans for $30 and 3 levi staruss T-shirts. and then also brought containers 30 piece for $7 and 26 piece for $7.... could not resist the deals. After 11 years I succumbed to the mad rush of Thanks giving discount shopping .
