My phone line is disconnected too!!!!!!!!!

My, like it was not enough that I couldn't connect to internet, now I can not use the phone line at all.... 3 days with no phone... seems like hell. I mean what if I didn't have the cell phone?
It made me think that how life was without phones? Ever since I was born, my family had accessed to telephone & I gathered it had become a very important part of our lives. How can I chat with Ava if there would be no phone? She lives almost 45 minutes away from my house so it's kind of impossible to talk in person! The point is you're not supposed to have a one hour trip to chat for half an hour.... Beside some times it’s easier to say something on the line than to say it looking in the eyes (like goodbyes).
Well, enough of me nagging! Monday is Eid e Ghorban or Adha as you may know it. It’s like the biggest holiday in Islamic countries. There are some traditions that I won’t go through them now. & there is a myth about Abraham & Ishmael & the miracle that happened in such a day.... If you like to know more I will find some links to put here as soon as I got accessed to internet to search.
I was supposed to go on a short trip this weekend but unfortunately a far relative of mine passed out last Saturday & we had to attend the funeral &.... Last weekend I went on another short trip to Mashhad (a holy city in east part of Iran). The weather was rainy but the travel worth it. Right now dad is planning another trip to visit nearby city of Kashan to purchase some carpets for my aunt! I always thought Tabriz carpets are the most beautiful ones but my aunt thinks a silk Tabrizian carpet is way too expensive for bedrooms. What I don't really get is why they are going to buy the carpet in Kashan? It's not like we can't find Kashan carpet in Tehran!
Yes and its Fajr ten-days... the national ceremony for the 79 revolution. I find it rather boring & a bit exaggerating. It IS full of propaganda.... To be honest I don't think I like monarchy; the fact that one person gain a JOB & leadership of SUBJECTS by birth is really ridiculous & what's more why people should supply someone's life because he is the King? So the revolution was somehow inevitable but back at 1979 folks knew what they didn't want but they didn't pay attention to what they wanted... & it led us here! Ok! No politics! My personal political views are kind of strange & this blog is not the place to discuss them.
Life is easy & cheerful as always & let it be. Cheers for now.
Ps: I'll be back soooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnn!
