Because there’s always more to say…

…and because I miss it. All of it. The being in India part and the writing part; the vague sense of obligation that the birth of this blog planted in me, to take the time to articulate ongoing experience – where I was and what it meant. And the unique and incomparable satisfaction of Having Written. I miss that. The dearth of public internet facilities in the States, together with a lack of internet in Abhinav’s room and no computer of my own (and, yes, a degree of inertia, no doubt) has reduced my writings over the last two months to an occasional scribble in my journal and a lot of good intention to transcribe multiple musings from head to screen as soon as the chance arises.

Which it has! Because I have a shiny new MacBook! Whose wireless capabilities, crucially, surpass those of Abhinav’s two year old model, allowing me to capture just enough signal to get online. Oh, happy day.

Coupled with this turn of events is the fact that I’m going home in a week. Going Home. Which will mean time for reflection on where I’ve been and where I’m going. And time to write. Watch this space (if any of you still do).

    Yes we’re still out here Anna, please do keep writing as things as they occur to you (particularly anthropology-related thoughts – ooooh how I miss anthropology lectures! You wouldn’t have a favourite journal to recommend would you..?)

    I hope you’re enjoying the weather today :-) Sunshine! Heat! Wow!
