D Day

This Diwali has been quite eventful.

Apart from the very social week that the roomie and I have had (Taash parties including one of our own, dressing up, food, gifts, dry fruits, lights and diyas, etc., we did the whole shebang!), I was amazed (and very, very happily so) at the enormous amount of goodwill going around. Smiles were cheap and the season was thick with camaraderie.

And as my eardrums and nasal tract have not been raped by the fire-crackers, it was an especially wonderful festival of ‘lights’. As it should be.

Come Tuesday, the holiday haze had lifted and the shutters on everyone’s hearts came down again. Pity.


Oh well… I won 500 bucks, wore amazing clothes, got lovely prezzies and scarfed down much yummy food. It was a freaking good Diwali for me, and I refuse to stop twinkling.
