im asking , because there were some days , within a month after our magical christmas morning at the gustavus adolphus swedish lutheran churchor what masqueraded as itthat i actually forgot that it had happened ; so pressing were the details of now , of finishing the initial design , of answering this or that call , of meeting this or that deadline , of buying that milk , that butter , and perhaps some chapatti if only they would sell it nearby , that the world filled all there was of me with its many worries , large and small , leaving no room for memories .
