Finally the term is over. I can sit, relax, take proper baths, write, read, listen to music, go for long walks in the snow and eat good food. I think that’s the best part of my career that I get ample time at constant intervals of the year to rejuvenate and rise up. I have seen people who have tied themselves to the chains of capitalism and can’t stop working to earn more. I beg to ask to earn for what? For whom?

Anyways, this morning, I went to this café in down town which makes this masala-chai tea (as the barista insists on calling it). Oh it’s the aroma which gets you. I have been drinking it like a fiend. It’s not bad with 160 calories, which I tend to walk off on my trip. The quitting smoking this is going well. I have my phases. I have put on the patch and chew nicorette gum and eat a lot of carrots but still once in a while, I just miss it. This morning, I saw my-self smoking my pipe, I was able to justify my devious behavior by saying,
“oh well, at-least I didn’t inhale it!!”

Last night, he came over. I made a huge pot of lavender tea with these French petite cakes which I got from starbucks. Just the other day, I and Sandra went to lunch at the little Greek in short-north. Not even sub-human-survival temperatures stopped us: she in her red coat, I in my black: walking, talking, smoking, gesturing and all, enjoying the onset of winter. We went to star-bucks and had these delicious little petite cakes which just melt in you mouth. It’s like a little flush of orgasm originating from the tip of the tongue. Bought this lavender tea from Zen-cha. Lavender always does some magic for the erratics and the irrationals. Or may be, I am just a fag who loves lavender! Anyways, it is one of the best concoctions I had in a while. Since, I have met him, I have started to go out more, and I have started enjoying my tea.

I was very sad for a few days when I found out that because of my work and all, I will not be able to take a vacation to see my family in India and visit friends in Paris. I don’t know, I guess, once in a while we all tend to miss the ones we tend to avoid. I wanted to meet all my nieces and nephews and go for a little bit of shopping and visit friends but every thing is different now. I might go to san fran. But majority of the time I will be here….

I need to start writing more frequently….
