on hiatus

Will be away next week because...my sister is coming. Hooray for visitors.
Three pre-hiatus comments....
1 - it rained last night. Crazy, its definitely been at least a month, I think 6 weeks, since it rained. Still kind of raining. I wonder when it will rain next? Jan, Feb? Will I see rain again before I leave?
2 - got caught in a traffic jam this morning. At a 4-way intersection all the lights were out so everyone just drove into the intersection and started honking. Finally a traffic police guy came and cleared it out a little bit but it was just silly.
3 - Delhi is "on strike" today. Not sure what that means or why, all I know is that all the coffee shops are closed and I seriously need some caffeine. Oh well, at least the strike happened before my sister's visit so it doesn't screw up those plans.
Will be back in a little over a week with pictures and stories.
