Musings over three years in Cairo, now reflections on life in Doha. Monday, August 30, 2010. Another milestone in our settling here in happy Doha: a bank account. I don't have my papers yet (or an income to deposit) (yet! So my husband sets up a joint banking account. Cool, right? Cool indeed. Husband sets up account with the Royal Bank of Qatar (I am sure that's what it is called) hands me my bank card and we go on our merry way. Husband: "Hey how's your day going? Husband: "Yeah, I know.". The Balancin...

Musings over three years in Cairo, now reflections on life in Doha. Sunday, May 23, 2010. Major Tom to Ground Control. Last night we had a dinner party at my best friend/ bride-to-be's place and one of the tasks was to enlist the guests' help in choosing a play list for the dj at the wedding. Dinner at 8.00, bring your iPod. Meanwhile, me and the ladies were blasting Michael Jackson, the Go-GOs, Outcast and the Clash. Rock the Casbah, baby! Why do her friends have such pedestrian taste in music? For a ve...

Musings over three years in Cairo, now reflections on life in Doha. Sunday, January 24, 2010. Does Fatafeat eat babies? I love Food TV. Be it the Food Network, BBC Lifestyle, or even the annoying Rachel Ray. If there's cooking on it, I'll watch it. I may be aging myself here but I think it all started with this low budget cooking show from my childhood called " Wok with Yan. The only thing that disturbs me and leaves me quite puzzled is that all the promos are shots of little babies smiling into the came...

Musings over three years in Cairo, now reflections on life in Doha. Tuesday, February 1, 2011. As events unfold in Egypt, I find it difficult to concentrate on anything else. I am so emotional and find myself on the brink of tears often as I watch. I am torn between my intense pride at their ferocious bravery and my selfish concern for their safety. Here is a link to a video of my dear friend, caught on YouTube. Of almost two million people in Tahrir, they found her:. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Peregrin...

EnGulfed: Everyday I don't write the book
http://cairomaniac.blogspot.com/2010/10/everyday-i-dont-write-book.html
Musings over three years in Cairo, now reflections on life in Doha. Monday, October 25, 2010. Everyday I don't write the book. I started this blog as a place to record my reflections on our life in the middle east. But I also wanted to use it as a vehicle to work my writing muscle. I wonder then, why - when daily I am bombarded with new and notable experiences - I don't write everyday. Is it laziness, lack of discipline, self censorship? Could it be because youre in Doha?

Musings over three years in Cairo, now reflections on life in Doha. Friday, October 29, 2010. From October 26 to 30 the Doha Tribeca Film Festival. Lights up the city. I've been to a number of films so far but last night was my favorite. Not only because the film was compelling and well made: "The Two Escobars". In one of the main city cinemas I saw "Bhutto". Enjoy your time there. October 29, 2010 at 7:58 AM. Sorry for jumping the gun! Thanks for reading my blog, I hope my cranky response doesnt dampen ...
