New Year Resolutions
Pregnancy is, indeed, a great fattener. More so for the guy than the woman, if I may say so. The year 2004 (at least the first half) wasn’t good for me health-wise. I had some minor surgery in March which put me out of the gym for a few weeks. Then I started commuting too… Continue reading New Year Resolutions
Pearl Harbor Day
Is it Pearl Harbor Day today? Or is it my birthday? I turn 34 right around this time (11:15am Pakistan Standard Time). Instead of posting photos of me as a toddler, I’ll use my birthday as an excuse to post more pictures of Michelle (with me, of course). And Happy Hannukah too.

I have got to work on my thesis. Plus I had some surgery done yesterday and am a… Continue reading Semi-Hiatus
Snow
Forgive me for getting excited, but this doesn’t happen often here in Atlanta. Since I have been here, I think it has happened only 2 or 3 times. In fact, today looks like the rare event where the snow stays on the ground for a day. According to the National Weather Sevice, Today. Occasional rain… Continue reading Snow
