List-o-phile

I've become totally addicted to american baby blog (check link from yesterday). I'm halfway through the archives and I can't wait to see what happens next. The story is simple enough, a Singaporean guy married to an American woman and they have a son and a daughter on the way. But he writes very sweetly and simply. You know how some blogs just grab you?
I'm in a list-making mood today, so I'm going to do some:

Happiness is:
> The new issue of Cosmo on my desk, waiting to be read.
> Driving with the music and A/C turned way up, on absolutely empty roads
> People asking me where I've been ever since I returned from holiday
> Finishing my major work yesterday, so I have time today to surf and blog.
> Reading the new re-written Mahabharata and feeling connected to my roots.

Things to look forward to:
> Friday night tambola (a variation of Bingo) at the Defence Colony club.
> Saturday night party at our place (oh f*ck, still have to invite some people!)
> Wearing the absolutely drop-dead, look-again sexy red dress that my dad bought me from Mango, UK.

My favourite names:
> Maya: meaning Illusion
> Anoushka: no clue what it means, but it sounds pretty
> Sharona: From the song My Sharona.

Things happening around me:
> Come As You Are by Nirvana, just ended on this guy's computer. He's been playing disctinctly gay music all day. I'm talking about Michael Learns To Rock, that song Milkshake etc. The scary thing about him is that he has his girlfriend's name tattooed on his arm!
> Someone is whistling.
> People are complimenting each other about page layouts.
> The guy who gives the most acerbic reviews to every hapless movie that crosses his way has given something the rating excellent. Hmmmm...!
> The ache on my left shoulder is increasing annoyingly.
