The next day, Mayur was back at work and I planned to spend the day working from home. Around 9 in the morning, my phone rang. It was my mother. Cora, I am coming to your apartment right now.". Why mommy - I am super busy with work - why are you here in town? Wrong She said, "Let's go upstairs," and the three of us went up to my apartment.

Saturday, October 1, 2011. Thanksgiving, Christmas, and a Funeral Part 3. What do you mean,. She looked at me with such pain in her eyes, and over the course of a few minutes that are a bit hazy to me now after nearly four years, explained to me that my daddy, on Christmas night, fell asleep on the sofa in his livingroom. The next morning, just a few short hours later, he was dead. He said he'd be there in five minutes and he kept that promise. This was the first time he met anyone from my family. It...

Peacock Skirt: October 2011
http://skirtpeacock.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 3, 2011. Thanksgiving, Christmas, and a Funeral Part 5. The morning of the funeral, I slipped on black pants and a black turtleneck and prepared myself for what I knew was going to be a pretty difficult day. I kept my mind on the light at the end of the tunnel - plans for that evening. People there, our little surrogate family or urban tribe or whatever you want to call it, made me feel less afraid and not as sad. Amazing how much profit there is in the death industry.). This land was in ...

Sunday, March 28, 2010. Spent much of this week in Arizona, for a work conference, but the true incentive to be there was getting the chance to tour Taliesin West. And the Arizona Biltmore.

Peacock Skirt: May 2006

Tuesday, May 30, 2006. What I Did During 2006 - New Orleans. This trip was for work, and just a few months after Hurricane Katrina and the floods (you can still see that quite a lot of the buildings were still boarded up at this point). The city was so different from how I remembered it from my last trip. What a place. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). About to overhaul this thing.time to dust off the blog and give it a new life.

Mixed them with chili powder, salt, and probably something else, then pressed this mixture between the two sides of a dinner roll, declaring that this greatly improved the taste and quality of the food. I'd like to see him try that in front of my grandmother! I work at a large proper corporation too, but at the time, I worked in a small regional office (I work from home now, which is awesome!
