So ages ago, two some years ago. I had won some prize in some writing contest, ok?
From a government agency in the west. Which of course is the west.
If you’d have told me I could be as persistent in insisting on, following up on my prize—if you’d told me this, I wouldn’t have believed it. Yet.

I am learning new things about money every day. Sobering, eye-opening things. And about the world, and behavior. And I thought the Saturn transit, the one supposed to teach you life lessons, was over. Oh la.

You know when I learned about money? When I moved to Bombay! Not cheap, being an alcoholic in this city.

PQ- you must! and you have the advantage of time...

Icy-Totos and all THOSE KIND OF PLACES mustn't be cheap. Chai is kinder, plus you get cutting.

I hope they have paid up! If it's from a government agency, that means my tax dollars at work, and for once, I approve!
