Yah, so this morning on my way to work, I was in my auto, minding my own business. Of course traffic is traffic here, it is crazy, you are used to it...Well, let me tell you HOW used to the craziness I am, and well, my auto driver is...We are sitting waiting to make our right turn onto my street...A BUS drives by, how close by you ask? IT is SO close that it hit our mirror and made it bend back tword the auto...DID the driver flinch? Heck No! He just sat there calmly and then made the turn, pushed the mirror back to where it was supposed to be, and drove on like it was a regular day...I guess it is a regular day here in India.

My hands have that OH SO dried out feeling like I just mopped/dusted every square inch of my apartment...probably b/c I did and boy was it NASTY! Got to love dirt/dust...you know, in America you could dust/sweep the floor maybe once a month and barely be able to tell it had been that long....here, you let a few days go by and your floors are SO covered your feet get ALL nasty by walking on them! UGH! It is ok though...at least now I am in wonder when I go to other countries at how clean they are. This summer when in Thailand I remember being amazed at how clean it was...then I heard an American girl who had just arrived from the States make a comment about how DIRTY it was in Thailand...hmmm....amazing what a little change in perspective can do for a person...
