we all live lives of strangeness..

Wednesday, June 27, 2007
The city of Amman has come to a standstill today as the Saudi King is in town and all roads are blocked. I spent an hour in the blazing heat trying to find a way to get home and then returned to the airconditioned and internet-equipped office...only to have a chat with my sister who has reaffirmed the fact that we are living rather strange lives..

Huma: i thought u were going home
Saba: yeah so did i
i left
spent an hour and 4 JD on trying to find a open road
Huma: hai hai
Saba: and a loong chat with the taxi cab driver
who did not seem happy when i said i thought the taliban was not good
Huma: acha did i tell u i went to an mma rally?
Huma: to cover the anti rushdie sentiment
haahahahahaha
Saba: oohh
Huma: only YOU could meet such characters
Saba: indeed
Huma: what else did he have to say abt the taliban?
Saba: he also said he has a paki friend who reads namaz at light speed
Huma: only pakistanis can be good at that
speed praying should be our national game
