My latest talent

The things that you can learn and develop in yourself by just having people who communicate with you from different time zones is amazing.

The latest thing that I am exploiting my talents in, is the art text messaging in my sleep with one eye half shut and the 1/4 of a brain that I was gifted with at birth - completely shut off.

A few of my friends live in the far east which means they are 7-8-9 hours ahead of me, quite a bit of my family is about 4 hours ahead of me, none of these people pay any heed to timezones, they believe it's bright and shining where they are therefore it's the same everywhere

Message from Sister: "What is a good site to post my pics, so that everyone can see"
Snoring me: "Well you could use Picasa, or Flickr, but that requires people to have to sign in, what could be a good idea is that you start your own blog, this would make it a good interface"
Reply from Sister: "How do i do that"
Message back from me: "I'm trying to catch the next flight out to your city, just hang tight"

Message from Friend who lives way too far: "Dude, would you like to get introduced to a 30 year old hot girl in your city?"
My response: "Why not? but are you sure she's 30 and still a girl and hot?"

This one takes the cake though:

Message from Mom: "Which is the 1st team that India will play against in the Cricket World Cup"
Groggy me at 0430 AM after having returned from a party at 0330 AM "I think it's Bangladesh on the 17th, you never liked cricket, watched cricket, why the question?"
Reply from Mom: "Crossword ... Haha"
:-/ I am still in a state of Shock

I am getting there, trust me I am...
