Amused...


Lot of things amuse me…
1. When I walk into the kitchen, and look around with a blank expression, not remembering what I came for in the first place…
2. A shocked look on a person’s face when they get to know that I “drink’, they make me feel as though, I have a drinking problem…
3. Frantically searching for my fav coffee mug, and finding it inside the fridge..don’t ask me how it went there, I wanted to place it in the microwave…
4. Switching on the TV with the intention of folding the heap of clothes, but finally, get engrossed in changing channels for atleast an hour, and the heap still lying on the couch…
5. Eagerly, opening the blog, and staring at it…
6. Yelling at my kid for something that he has not done…
7. Getting crazy mood swings during PMS and after that, which obviously leaves the man in the house confused…
8. Getting up startled, only to realize that I still have 5 hours to sleep before I actually wake up…
9. Making a pact of not to splurge on more bags and junk, and getting into the store and doing the exact opposite…
10. Fighting with my son and blackmailing him to eat nutritious food of dal, rice, veggies…and finally giving in to dosa/idlis, just because I want to dump him into the fun corner and scoot soon to shop…
11. Deciding not to stress myself in the mornings, and taking the morning so easy that finally, I reach the point of freaking out…
12. Resolving to diet from the next morning, an evening prior to that, and breaking it by lunch…
These are not the only things, there are many more… it’s so weird… but when you sit and think about all of it, it leaves a smile on your face…there are small small things which make your day… Everyone is crazy in his or her own way..the fact of the matter is I enjoy it, I go berserk many times, lekin woh zindagi hi kya jisme koi mazaa na ho… :)

Take it easy policy...

A friend walked in, to have coffee, her house also is empty by 8 and so is mine. So sometimes, we catch up for our lil tete-a-tete over coffee. Talking about coffee, I have turned the American way, I now prefer black coffee to white. Well, the first cuppa is with milk. Her Mum is an amazing baker, she had sent homemade peanut butter cookies. So, my neighbour was generous enough to get some for me. I made the famous South Indian filter coffee, and we plonked ourselves on the couch. She seemed a lil disturbed, so after a lot of prodding, she finally asked me if I thought she was obsessive about being perfect. So I instantly said Yes! And she was shocked, she said how could I have known that about her, as I have known her only for few months. So I laughingly pointed out at certain incidents and told her that I have a penchant for observing people and their mannerisms, and I can't help it. We laughed, then she asked, but what's wrong in doing things perfectly? I told her nothing, ...

Blah blahs....

For the last few days, I open my blog, view it, read my friends posts and then sign out... There are so many thoughts crossing my mind, everyday, but am unable to pin it down. For example, this morning, in the Delhi metro, nobody offered their seat to an old woman, she even requested one young girl to get up, as she wasn't feeling too well, but the dame refused. Two minutes later, the old woman had a dizzy spell and fell, I couldn't help asking that dame, how would she have felt if her mother went through a similar situation? She obviously didn't have an answer, but that set me into a thinking mode, not to forget that I was totally upset with such a start to the day. But, come to think of it, what is happening to our society? What happened to values? Respect..Kindness...Compassion... Have people forgotten these words? What are we passing on to our children? Everyday, I get bogged down by such thoughts, because, even if I stick to my guns, and pass on the so called ...

NO (WO)MAN NO CRY..

So, the weekend's agenda was 'meet the inlaws' - my inlaws. And like many women, inspite of being married for a long time, the 'inlaw' factor still stirs a lot of mixed emotions, though I have learnt my way out and in of nagging situations, my heart continues to beat faster. Anyway, there were lot of children, as it was my nephew's birthday party. The kids were playing, shouting, running, jumping, fighting - exactly in that order. My son. all of 8 is a little sensitive, he hasn't  learnt yet to deal with violent or hyper energetic kids. He kept requesting a kid of his age to stop kicking him, but the other one didn't listen, and as it's famously said, "Survival of the fittest", my son finally kicked back, and blocked him using his karate moves,(at last the technique was put to use)! The fight actually increased, as the other kid now charged with all his might. By the time the elders stopped the fight, that kid had hurt my son, I was ch...
