Because we have no house-help unlike India we know how to optimize our utensils usage so by end of the when we run the dishwasher its not overflowing. Plus, less things to wash! But this is not something India folks are used to, including my in-laws since they have so much help with all of that. The result is that by mid-day our sink is already full of utensils ready to be washed. Its not uncommon for us to run the dishwasher twice daily now, and that is with my mother in laws hand washing some stuff herself (which we forbid her to – I mean, why else do we have a dishwasher in first place!).

My FIL is giving my backyard/sideyard/frontyard a make over that I would have spent thousands if not hundreds of dollars on. Grateful for it. It keeps him busy and brings the farmer in him out so he is entertained, and my yard is getting the makeover it really needs. Win-win for all!
My in laws have lost complete sense of time. The quiet and dark gloomy weather basically has wrecked their system so bad that they sleep ams wale up like teenagers.
🍿 Weapons (2025) – ★★★☆☆
Starts off great but just loses steam completely by end. It wasn’t even scary except for the few initial jolts. Waste of 10$ rental – could have waited until it dropped to 4$.
Never have be more happier to have roots in India than otherwise lol. I feel for the dumb fucks in the country who have nowhere else to go when they come for them eventually.
I enjoy gardening work in moderation. It’s never my first preference of things to do, but once in a while I will do it and enjoy it.
What would I not give to watch Sangam 2 featuring Melania torn between two warmongers Trump and a Putin on each side of continent. This love triangle has makings of an all time blockbuster. Imagine Putin crooning “yeh mera prem patra padhkar” or Trump serenading “dost dost na raha….”. Oof take my money already!
Heading into the weekend with a healthy dose of koothu paratha and shira (made by MIL). Lovely stuff! Her shira literally feels like the hand of god made it.
Apparently I made it through the FIFA Tickets Visa Pre-sale. I guess everyone else did too? I am curious which specific tickets I might actually be able to buy, if at all coz I imagine they opened it up to hundreds of thousands of people anyway.
I caught clips of the debate between Winsome (R) and Spanberger (D) for VA governor elections. My god Winsome was insanely annoying and basically created a ruckus. But Spanberger, OMG, I’d rather watch paint dry. Like bring SOME. FUCKING. FIRE to the room. When the other candidate has completely gone wild, not allowing you to speak a single word, nor anyone can understand a single word – its time for you to bring your aggressive side out and shut her up. Instead she looked like a school girl in distress being bullied nonstop and all she could do was just answer the question. And then fucking them too – like Jesus way to throw Jay Jones under the bus. Really? voters should make a call on whether to vote for Jones (D) as AG. You fucking realize that Miyares (R) the current AG is a fucking nightmare. The only reason Spanberger may even win this election is maybe because of some anti-Trump feelings, but my god she is terrible.
