Summer 06

I guess the summer has begun officially. It's been a while. There is light till at least 8pm (which is a great source of joy). I got my boogie board finally. I should have got it couple of years ago since I got hooked to it and have been doing it for quite some time. But as usual, I am skeptical as to how many times I would use it to justify the cost. But that's ok. At least I don't have to worry about returning it on time and take my credit card or cash to the rental place everytime. I can now leave pretty much everything in the car and walk to the beach with my stuff and have a nice time. We did boogie boarding today at La Jolla shores beach - my favorite spot for boogie boarding. Not many waves today though. Last weekend was much better. Our friends had also come. Both of them were trying it out for the first time. I am not sure if one of them would come again. I would have to talk to him since he was not really able to catch some good waves today. I think he got the hang of it though.

Then we had our tamil sangam meeting for which I was late. They are trying to hold like an american idol event - three teams with several themes each. they are supposed to sing a suitable song in each theme and will be ranked on their performance, song selection, lyrics, etc. There has been some discussion going on for quite sometime without major decisions being made. I am now for making decisions fast. The point is just to do it without wavering or dilly dallying all the time. There were conflicts as usual. It took a great deal of effort to convince people as to how practical the whole thing is.

I am back home now beginning to work.
