Long Day

Unlike the last trip here, work is taking up more time.  You know it's been a long day when you're eating Chicken McNuggets in bed and watching a movie in a foreign language because the remote is on the other side of the room.

I'm not exactly sure what's going on, but it doesn't really matter.  Just to slip into work speak for a moment, but it's really interesting how to TV stations here handle how they schedule the Bollywood movies.  There is unedited version, which is what I'm watching.  All the random dancing and singing one could expect.  With commercials this can bring a movie to four hours.  There is also an edited version that runs like a regular movie for a mere two hours.

The costumes are the best.  It takes a confident man to pull off a silver sequined suit and look good in it.  The women are completely gorgeous and each sari that they wear is more elaborate than the last.  Maybe it's a good thing that the remote is far away.

And small hooray--it's midnight and I'm actually tired and ready to go to sleep.  Finally more than four hours of sleep!
