Bam! Tomorrow is the first day of Diwali, and this place already sounds like a party war zone. When you remove US safety restrictions and butt a country right next to firework-world-capital China, the gunpowder power and the sheer quantity just seems to be ^10. These mortar shells started at 5:00am this morning - HUGE motherfsckers that I'm sure would wake the dead, and everybody seems to have at least a dozen to spare. Right, left, up, down - fireworks in my ears. By the time I finished typing the above paragraph, over two hundred serious-sounding fireworks were shot from rooftops up into the air outside my window. In other news, today is an auspicious day, so you can't eat meat! Veg only. (Most Wednesdays you can luck out with some chicken.)
