A quick update

I have been busy and lazy. Caught in that loop for the last 2 weeks. When I was not busy or lazy, I was not in a mood to write anything. Woke up on the wrong side of the bed for a day or two. Anyway, a lot of things are to be blogged. Let me list them here so that I do not forget them, after all, this IS my diary.

1. We got a new TV.
2. We got DISH Network and their customer service clearly finds new ways to hit rock bottom on customer satisfaction. I will give it to them, they are pretty creative about this.
3. Abhijit Dixit and his wife, Shilpa, visited us during the Labor day weekend and we had a ball of a time with some great food and some amazing tennis.
4. We just finished watching one of the best USOpens ever. Thanks to DVR I did not miss anything.
5. Yesterday's men's finals needs a separate blog entry or two. It was a dream/nightmare matchup when it comes to rooting for someone. AA is not just another player for me. The way he has fought back as a tennis player and as a person, the way he has overcome all his setbacks, is goosebumpedly inspiring. No wonder that he and Lance are admirers of each other. It was not very easy for me to support a single person in that match. I will quote myself from another blog entry to reiterate this:

" It will be sufficient to say that for me what Tendulkar is to Cricket, Federer is to Tennis. Ever since I saw him play his first Wimbledon finals, I have been a big fan of his. It is true that I will not know who to support when he plays against Andre Agassi but (un)fortunately, Andre withdrew from Cincinnati Masters this year."

I will be back soon to talk about all these things and yes, there are a few new pictures too.
