IN Digestion

I guess I really don’t need or want my wide screen tv anymore. I stopped watching television a long time ago mostly on the count of one show - and never attempted to really watch it until nearly seven years later and only after I knew for sure that the outcome would be something that I would look upon favorably -

So, nearly 220 episodes being consumed in the span of one year, I kinda have to make my peace with TV -

I just made an omelette, I set the gas heater to work! My wife’s blog is what inspired me to write this - she can write, HA, well I Can write to., I too have ideas, I take out my notepad, and I just write - like I am writing now… I just pull it out and I go for it, you know what I am saying?

First of all, I am very proud of myself - there are a few things I was putting off (collectively with Fatima) and by myself. My goal for my step children (read: kids), note I do not always feel comfortable referring to them as my own kids, mostly for the most part because of the fact that they have a very good relationship with both of their parents (i.e. mom AND dad) so its not a situation in which I am the only father figure, rather, I am ‘Uncle Sas’ but they live with us a long time of the year or maybe in a few years, they will be with us for the summer only - but - basically from my side, the only two things I really want to impart or be a part of imparting is doing my utmost in ensuring that they learn Arabic, and memorize a large portion if not the whole qur’an - now, me and Fatima both prefer that they do both of those things full time and not have to worry about schooling, etc. but since there are fathers, grand parents, etc. taking them out of school and putting them for 2-3 years in just Arabic and Qur’an is not an option - BUT, its happening.. (ahh instead of doing a full write up of what happened), I will simply say things are happeing….

The kids are doing good awesome in arabic, and now they are starting quran to, and have been doing awesome for a month or so - they just ater fried eggs for morning, I had some toast, and I relaxed in a Lady Picture Show  after a job well done

Lady picture show she hides behind the bedroom wall
She hides because she dont know nothin, dont know nothin any more

I met a girl who sang the blues
And I asked her for some happy news,
But she just smiled and turned away.
I went down to the sacred store
Where I’d heard the music years before,
But the man there said the music wouldn’t play.

The church bells all were broken…

My feet, legs are always itching - right now, as well they are most defintely itching - but - check it. I got fired, well fired may not be the correct word, I pleaded many times using sarcasm, and what not indicating that I am not the right person for the job - and after many days, many missed appointments, many missed deadlines - and I am sure loss of productivity for the second company that I was working for (I began working for them mostly because I felt kinda bad for their situation and wanted to help them out) - I am being allowed to leave - which is great! I really really really do want them to work it out, and I wish I could have been more help - but I Was/am/still am very busy right now, and will be for at least a few more months - (I have a deadline due in about 8 hours!) -

But now it is back to fun easy work, that is very time consuming, very fun, and its mine, - again, had I the time to work with them, it would have been awesome - they are doing some really cool stuff, and I got to work with some really exciting technologies - but in the end, I need to begin my retirement! I do do do hope that the parts I have left to finish help them out and they are able to get it rolling, and perhaps in the future there is a possibliity of something there - but - I was no where near ready to be working on TWO HUGE projects at the same time - IN has totally become a self running thing, and its AWESOME - (INCOMING! The CTO just messaged me right now on MSN, and instead of doing the thing that I would do, I am quickly showing him how to do it!) Simple stuff, just reconnecting the VPN.

But, the great thing is! No meetings, no more diagrams, no more explanations to other engineers, etc. NOTHING. NOTHING. (again, its not that I do not want to do its, its just that I am REALLY tied up)

I AM REALLY Hungry, I mean STARVING. Today, Fatima was sick. I made the food, but that was when I was hungry hours ago, I am hungry again, I Am not sure what I am going to do…. I can’t very much well ask Fatima for something at this hour… (its 1:17 AM), and I will be honest… I can’t really eat food unless its of three things:

1. Desi Food / Arab Food (meaning anything with rice and meat)
2. Pizza
3. Maceroni and Cheese
4. Pasta Roni

That’s it, that’s all I eat, I eat nothing else, and the only bread I really like to eat is Paratha.

Ok, I am to hungry to continue, I am going to drive some guava juice, but Ill finish up this story later in shaa Allaah -
