In the Beginning There Was The Blog...

Okay.

Aaaargh! Writer's block! On my very first blog too... this bodes ill for my future as DarkThalia, Blogger Extraordinaire.

Or it could possibly be the fact that it's 2 am on a Fri morning, having had a total of 5 hours' sleep in 3 days. I will grasp at any excuse.

With this entry, I officially announce my presence to the exciting world of blogging.
Hello, Blogging World.

It's the second day of Deepavali - the day when the family gets together to share laughter & joy and have a really exciting game of 'chor tai ti'. Small fortunes have been made and lost on a flip of a card, people, I kid you not. Alliances and family feuds formed and broken in a single round. But in the end, the money goes to a good cause - dinner!

Happy Deepavali, everyone. May you recover quickly from the stomach upsets that come with eating too much mutton/chicken curry and kurma. And may you also find 101 ways to eat that leftover mutton/chicken curry and kurma for the next 2 weeks.

I give up. My brain is staging a coup on the rest of my body and I can't feel my toes anymore. I'm going to sleep. Thus endeth DarkThalia's first blog. Good night, world.
