They do say that "all's fair in love n war"....Something that showed up in my mail yesterday:
One evening last week, my girlfriend and I were getting into bed.Well, the passion starts to heat up, and she eventually says "I don't feel like it, I just want you to hold me."
I said "WHAT????!!! What was that?!"
So she says the words that every boyfriend on the planet dreads to hear..."You're just not in touch with my emotional needs as a woman enough for me to satisfy your physical needs as a man."
She responded to my puzzled look by saying, "Can't you just love me for who I am and not what I do for you in the bedroom?"
Realizing that nothing was going to happen that night, I went to sleep.
The very next day I opted to take the day off of work to spend time with her. We went out to a nice lunch and then went shopping at a big, big unnamed department store. I walked around with her while she tried on several different very expensive outfits.
She couldn't decide which one to take so I told her we'll just buy them all. She wanted new shoes to compliment her new clothes, so I said lets get a pair for each outfit. We went onto the jewellery department where she picked out a pair of diamond earrings.
Let me tell you...she was so excited. She must have thought I was one wave short of a shipwreck. I started to think she was testing me because she asked for a tennis bracelet when she doesn't even know how to play tennis.
I think I threw her for a loop when I said, "That's fine, honey."
She was almost nearing sexual satisfaction from all of the excitement. Smiling with excited anticipation she finally said, "I think this is all dear, let's go to the cashier." I could hardly contain myself when I blurted out, "No honey, I don't feel like it."
Her face just went completely blank as her jaw dropped with a baffled "WHAT???!!!" I then said, "Really honey! I just want you to HOLD this stuff for a while. You're just not in touch with my financial needs as a man enough for me to satisfy your shopping needs as a woman." And just when she had this looklike she was going to kill me, I added, "Why can't you just love me for who I am and not for the things I buy you?"
Apparently I'm not having sex tonight either.
The weather in Lafayette has gone crazy..hitting 50s [Fahrenheit] and then dropping to 20s and then to giving a mix of snow and rain at same time...everybody on campus has an identical look of 'WTF!' on their face now.

A belated "Happy New Year" and Eid Mubarak to all...
There havent been updates on the blog for quite some time and for a good reason too, my amazing vacation in Dubai. It was a blast from day one to day eighteen. Not saying that everyday was a party but even a boring day in Dubai is a party compared to days in Purdue.
I mostly hung out with friends from school, chiiling at hookah joints, going to amusement centres and playing bumper cars like 5 yr olds, swam in the community pool, went to the beach and pigged on food (home cooked or otherwise) but made a point to eat stuff which did not resemble a burger or a pizza from a 50 ft distance.
Managed to scratch up a side of dad's Lexus in the few days that he trusted me with it :P and have to say my good friend Tahseer also helped me by doing her part in trashing the car :D...
It was lovely meeting family and friends, however I do feel guilty about spending more time with friends than with family. In my defense I must say that I had limited time and I was making up for a year of boredom and family is fine for a day or two but they surely dont do much in the way of fun :).
Now let me talk a lil about my journey. On my way to Dubai via Istanbul I almost missed my flight to Istanbul because of this stupid thing called NSEERS. Basically I need to report to the US customs when I'm leaving or entering US. Why? Because Ive lived in UAE and who knows, I might be a terrorist, coz you know, terrorists use the legal means of transportation when they plan an attack.
Anyway, I check my luggage in, have a nice lunch and go past security checks only to find out that the only US customs office in OHare is in Arrivals area which outside the Departure lounge, far far away. So I go there and people take their sweet time in checking me and other poor souls out of USA. When I return to the departure lounge, the security check line is half a mile long (being the holiday season and all). Now I have just one hour to flight departure and the line aint moving at all. I stood for a good 45 mins and then had to beg people and show them my boarding pass to let me cut in front of them. Made through security with 5 mins to gate close. Reached the gate with no breath inside of me and the world growing darker by the second. Boarded the flight and heaved a giant sigh of relief.
The best part is yet to come. When I returned to USA, without fail I was escorted to a separate immigration lounge because of the whole NSEERS thing. After waiting for a good hour with, again a few poor souls who shared the same plight, the officer calls out my name and gives me a piece of news which pissed me off and made me jump for joy at the same time. He told me that I was on the NSEERS list by error (so hey Im not a terrorist after all, yay!!) and that I do not need to do this special immigration thing from now on. I wanted to cry (but I didnt, genetic problem). So in essence they made me run around for nothing, NOTHING!!!
Ok this should do for now..btw new additions to my photo gallery in Nature and B&W sections...
