Journal Entry:
Pretty much a repeat of yesterday. Spent the morning in my room (working out, on my computer, and reading), then hit the internet cafe. In the afternoon I looked in to the bus schedule to Mamallapuram.

I'm really starting to feel tired, and am wondering if it might be time to go home. This is only the second time that I can remember feeling like this for more than a day or two (Namibia, February 1999 was the other time). The thing is the challenge of re-inserting myself into life at home (in effect making a "home") isn't appealing either. Here I am living my dream and I'm not happy. Hopefully it's a funk that will pass. Meanwhile I'm not going to waste my time in India so tomorrow I'm off for Mamallapuram!
