Oh excitement... I've just booked my tickets to Madras. I know its five months away but unless you get in early, its extremely hard to get flights around Christmas.

Okay, already the excitement is waning because now I just have to twiddle my thumbs for many months. Also, I have to somehow slip it to my boss that I'm planning *another* four week vacation at the end of the year. To be fair, my last one to the US was three weeks but there was also two weeks to India last October which have mysteriously not been deducted from my accumulation of annual leave. Not that I'm complaining of course... maybe they would've been deducted if I'd *officially* applied for it, but at the time I didn't and nobody else did on my behalf either so my annual leave account is still looking very healthy!

Anyway, now I must get working on this New Years trip to Goa as no one has gotten of their fat ass and done shitole thus far!! First Rat and I must decide what exactly we are going to do... I don't want to spend too many days away from home and now there are some added complications of weddings and all! So come on Rat, make up your bloody mind. Then, I must work the Madras crowd and get them organised into booking tickets, accomodation, etc. The last trip to Goa would sooo not have happened without the brilliant organisational skills of Sista T and me! It's going to be tough... especially since I'm sitting here oceans away. At least the last time I could annoy them about it everyday.

Ah well, if it happens, it happens. If it doesn't happen, all I care about is bringing in the New Years with the same people and it doesn't really matter if that happens in Disco Valley, Goa or some random beach house in Madras.
