Of sins and whines!

I have come to ask for forgiveness...since I have committed a sin...! Knowing some of you too well..and they knowing me a bit too well...please tame your thoughts! right now :) It was the perfect night...rains outside, mobiles switched off( du... I have come to ask for forgiveness...since I have committed a sin...! Knowing some of you too well..and they knowing me a bit too well...please tame your thoughts! right now :) It was the perfect night...rains outside, mobiles switched off( due to no battery!), unknown surroundings...there was nothing to stop me...I had known that it could has long lasting bad effects including bad publicity...but then "any publicity" is good! so anyway...there I was...on a cushiony sofa...with the right company..." Could I offer the lady some wine please?".... I have always been a fan of chivalry...!!! With a glass of wine in one hand, the cushion in the other...I felt...almost sinful~~~ Just to cut a rather long night short...forgive me coz I have sinned...but then a glass of wine...is not that big a sin! considering there were other sinful options around~~~ Read More

Count your blessings!

This one indeed will qualify as random ramblings...Inane thoughts on a perfect sunday! Wandering on the streets of ever-so-crowded-but-today-empty roads of CP, I blamed god...for everything! Simple as that...for everything that is go... This one indeed will qualify as random ramblings...Inane thoughts on a perfect sunday! Wandering on the streets of ever-so-crowded-but-today-empty roads of CP, I blamed god...for everything! Simple as that...for everything that is going wrong....for everything which is not correct...for my untimely stomache upset...for my missing out on a deadline...for my not being a rich spoilt brat who could enjoy luxuries of life...for the horribly hot heat...! Don't we all often end up doing that? Blaming god, luck, situations...blaming it on anything to everything so that we can escape from the guilt..the turmoil of taking decisions, of owning responsibility... You start thinking only when things don't go your way...my life has indeed all chapters...of happiness, struggle, competition, responsibility and friendships...but it has suddenly turned towards a new chapter...of being restless...for no rhyme or reason...or may be there is a reason...no idea! In this state of confusion...I see a brightly dressed lady...neatly plaited hair, colorful sari..red n white bangle...a bengali housewife with a tucked in daughter...a boring looking husband accompanies...she is satisfied...the glow in her eyes is a stark contrast to my gloominess...if I compare...she in all probability is financially not independent...she doesnt have any online or offline friends...and her deadlines include saturday shopping and monthly rations...! She looks forward to spending 2 hours of her time with her husband on a sunday who even does'nt have a Erricson :P ( I saw a Nokia with him!) But she is happy...~~~!!! And why am I not ? Time to sleep off...and close these random ramblings! Adieu...to a more zestful week!!! Read More

Heights of tolerance!

Tolerance is a dying virtue...and I am a victim of that...for last few days, my patience and tolerance level has literally gone down the drains...I have become snappy...I overreact and sometimes I do not react! I need help!!! But then a lot of... Tolerance is a dying virtue...and I am a victim of that...for last few days, my patience and tolerance level has literally gone down the drains...I have become snappy...I overreact and sometimes I do not react! I need help!!! But then a lot of people around me are still the champions of this cause...and they are doing a hell of a task by being one! Ask a boutique designer or a ladies tailor...the amount of time one takes to decide on a neck design, to the length of the suit to the embroidery...you say it and the poor guys do it! Each design has to fit in even if the shape of the owner isnt..each dress mandatory to be a dress which needs to be stitiched on high priority since there is a wedding, function, conference, holiday etc approaching! Hail to these tolerant species specially men who take it on the task of satisfying a woman...each time! Height of tolerance: 8+ They chose to ignore bitchiness, laugh at old-several-times jokes and praise...all at the right time! No wonder they get exclusive rights to be touchy when they want to...strictly on professional basis! The second nearly extinct species is the local doctor...He/She is a man of few words...a patient in the literal sense...because he listens to stories revolving office, work, roads, deadlines, spouses, children, luck, etc etc...and if the queue isnt long...then only god save you! May be 'doc' can throw more light on whether there is a must-pass exam for docs in tolerance and patience? Surprising is instances when these patients become impatient! My doc is not a surprising variety...he has time to cater to world's problems, discuss the pros n cons of anything to everything and has a ready advice...always! Heights of toleance: 7+ They are people who are taught to listen...I m sure professionally it sounds fine but I wonder what happens when they want a shoulder to cry on...when they need someone to just listen to them! The bright side of being a doc is no matter how much sciences we have studied or claim to remember...when a doc speaks...the patient patiently has to listen! End- In case u r wondering on what this was all about...well I have been advised to take rest at home...reason- I have developed allergy...'intolerance' to air! Now can you beat that!!! Read More

Friday fun!

Coffee is what I need right now! To wake me from the slumber…to get me going for a tiring long day…to remind me of sins and of thoughts! But not all coffees or drinks stir the same emotions…like not all MS meets stir the same emotions... Coffee is what I need right now! To wake me from the slumber…to get me going for a tiring long day…to remind me of sins and of thoughts! But not all coffees or drinks stir the same emotions…like not all MS meets stir the same emotions…! Off topic again :-) Emotions and MS meets will be discussed…later! Coming back to the topic… A cool cup of cold coffee…reminds me of the happy-go-lucky times…when the world was restricted to school homework, teacher’s assignments and evening playing hours! It also reminds me of my twin-sister at MS :-) someone who is as chilled out as one should be…reminding me of the goodness that still exist…somewhere! Cappuccino…this is a bland flavour cuppa which is taken under much stressed, high pressure, and boring times! Best taken with mean office colleagues, dreary dates and highly intellectual, brainy and worthless people J Who it reminds me on MS…someone who thinks very highly of his/her self but lacks substance! I once had a very bad cuppa at Mc Donalds…but then somehow the company didn’t give me bitter memories! Iced tea…my favourite nowadays since it reminds me of silly pleasures of life! Sparkling chilled glass with a dash of plum/lemon/mint…since I am not a tea drinker, this is my way of joining the ever reducing tea drinkers’ community ;-) I have had my best iced tea dates with the most non iced personalities…both off and on MS! But… The best cuppa is still the freshly stirred cup of instant coffee which I think is famously made somewhere in Mulund ;-) I believe it is a hot favourite when one wants to just sit back and relax…and savour the freshness…the aroma and the sins! This is my reminiscence of inane times, of guilty pleasures…of just being with a friend~ Thoughts and more thoughts…! Can someone get me my cuppa please? Read More

Bad boss day!

Realising that my boss is having a bad day at home/office/love life/god-knows-where I decided to give myself a deserving break this weekend! Switching off my “official” cell and my “always- thinking- work” mind, I got up  late, had a leisurely breakfast and read all the week’s news…the day looked absolute bliss! To make the day more perfect, I utilised my long forgotten cooking skills and cooked up a heavy meal…dimmed the lights, switched on my expensive AC and not so cheap TV friend for a nice weekend lunch…Voila! The first thing that shows up- > “Discussion on how to deal with bosses!” …. …. …. The food suddenly tasted bland…the lights too dimmed…the remote…the culprit! Someone had rightly said…"You don’t leave organisations”….”You leave bosses”…! Amen~ Read More

Twinkle Twinkle offtopic star!

Not sure on who would be reading this at this hour, but then...the stars like me never cared! Since the whole of MS world is really discussing on why what happened...let me...a twinkling/ missing STAR pen down a valid reason/excuse on why things... Not sure on who would be reading this at this hour, but then...the stars like me never cared! Since the whole of MS world is really discussing on why what happened...let me...a twinkling/ missing STAR pen down a valid reason/excuse on why things happen which should not have happened... In any case...for me, writing on a general topic is awfully difficult...when I m used to writing everything under anything :) So this one is again bound to be off the topic! For me, valid reason would be...to encourage creativity...! You must have heard " never judge a book by its cover"...same applies here...what is the fun of reading each of the 45 reviews of the same film saying the same old stuff...just one off the cuff remark and you have made it interesting for at least one other person. Replacing characters of Sholay with people from MS meant using the same product for two different purposes :) sane logic I hope! Since most of us are guilty of astraying...and are rather expert at it...lets see how creative you can get with a simple on-the-topic post? PS: Thank you Ambuj for getting me here :) PS: Shyam- Ignore! PS: Doc- Looking forward to discussing this over a cup of Kaapi :) PS: FE- I have still to read your outpour! Read More
