back in the us of a

Shailaja and I are back in the US, visiting my family in Michigan, so the posts may not be coming fast and furious over the next month. I'll do my best to chronicle my reverse culture shock, though. (Gasp: There's not a line at City Hall! And no scrum in front of the counter, either). I'm not one to carp about how easy things are to accomplish in the US, but I gotta confess I feel like there are way too many hours in the day when everything is so easy to do. Yesterday I got a marriage license, opened a bank account, bought a new wardrobe, got a short-term cell phone connection, went out to lunch, cooked dinner, went out to a bar and more. That's a week's work for me in Delhi.
