Sometimes Popagandhi reminds me of Orhan Pamuk; a good example is here. Speaking of OP, while I doubt I will be able to return his book to the library by tonight (although I will try, if I can!), I definitely wanna try "column-writing" once I get back from India. Should be fun.

And oh, yes, India! I am heading back to the homeland early tomorrow morning. It's going to be a pretty short trip, so I don't know how many places I can go/people I can meet (considering that it is Bombay, I suspect a whole lot of people I'd like to meet won't be met). But will atleast do a round-trip of my family (atleast the members who stay in the Bombay-Pune area), so won't be all bad. Will also have a chance to meet extended Pune family, who generally I don't get to meet as my Pune trips tend to be fairly limited.

And oh, yes, Pune! I am working on Pune's Wikipedia page, and am happy with how its turning out so far. A whole lot of work remains, as is obvious from even a quick glance at the page, but paragraphing has much improved, links are more consistent, company lists have been shortened, and the history has been cleaned up significantly. Yay! Hopefully nothing much will happen between now and next week; if it does, of course, that just means more cleanup for me (which is not necessarily a bad thing, just an inconvenient one!).

So, yes. Looking forward to trip so far. Have packed up my camera and everything, and am prepared except for my clothes (which desperately need drying, bless them) and my hair (still needs a cut) and packing in general (no presents this time, so it's just clothes, pretty much).
