The Commune

Crumbs of cake & coffee dregs

The Commune falls eerily silent...
Copious cups of coffee have been consumed. And Stefan, returning from a lunch date (hmmmmmm!!!!) brought back chocolate cake to go with it.

So where is everyone else?

Nayana took off for a weekend in Kodi - she said it was for a wedding, but then took a suspiciously small bag and NO PRESENT visible.

Vinuta decided to spend the weekend at home with her parents. Well, that's understandable, especially this time.

Swati, of course, is in Cheese Land.

Her replacement - well, not really her replacement, but the person who will now occupy her room - Ashish, is in Turtle Land, trying not to get arrested.

That leaves Namrata and Stefan.

Make that Namrata, her computer, Stefan and his computer. Almost the only sounds for the last 24 hours have been that of keys on the two laptops. Except of course for the last 45 minutes, when Germany plays Sweden at the World Cup. (I'm actually uploading during half-time break.)

And Stefan is actually being rather unsocial... first, he turned down an invitation to go out to dinner and celebrate what will certainly be a win for Germany. (What kind of German is this?!?!) Then, to make matters worse, he's monopolizing the bean bags. What kind of person flings himself across TWO bean bags, leaving his flatmate to crouch uncomfortably on the sofa?

He'll be cooking dinner tonight, you can be sure of it. Or lunch tomorrow. Or both!!

Ah well... at least the broadband got installed at last, so it's easier to blog now, perhaps even Skype if any of the commune-ists decide to come online!

In the meantime, they've resumed play in Germany... coffee anyone??
