Why have I been away for a year and a half? Well, for reasons that go beyond just laziness, boredom and working my ass off.
Well for starters, I am now married. After a somewhat struggle of sorts with people around, my former boyfriend and I are now man and wife. Despite my reservations, there was the big, fat, loud Marwari wedding that my in-laws would not do without - nach, gaana, 20 kilo ghaghra - EVERYTHING! And much to my surprise (and horror) my demure Bengali side of the family seemed to enjoy it! Anyway, from what I have learnt of the “Shaadi Experience”, a wedding is nothing about the couple. It’s about the family. A marriage, though, is all about the couple. Thankfully.
The next thing is that I quit the job I loved in Bombay and moved to Dubai. Wasn’t a smart thing to do just as the recession hit the desert city (now almost like a deserted city), but it’s worth being jobless for a while. at least I don’t have a job that I am scared of losing! 
So as you can see, life has been busy. But now I’m back and intend to keep it that way.
