Sunday, Monday, Happy Days!

I was just walking down the memory lane and I remembered what used to make me happy. See I was such a 90’s wild child and being one of those guinea pigs who were caught between the traditional era and the modern era i was really addicted to TV. TV and books used to keep me so happy. I used to watch anything and everything - sometimes even Bold and the Beautiful.

But some of the best serials that really helped me through the worst times were:

1. Who’s the boss
2. I dream of Jeannie
3. Different strokes
4. Silver spoon
5.B*witched
6. Kate and Allie
7. Happy Days
8. Mad about you
9. Friends
10. Seinfeld
11. That 70’s show
12. Frasier
13. 3rd rock from the sun 13. Johnny Quest
14. Fushigi Yuugi (Anime)
15. Star Trek
16. Wonder Years
17. Small Wonder
18. Beverly Hills 90210
19. Doogie Howser M D

Kate and Allie

Mad About You

My Fortune teller

I love this!It is so accurate!

Matrimony and hegemony of lives

Damn aunties! They love the idea of matrimony. I prefer alimony

So this lady comes to my place and they love throwing questions at my mum (I am in the room dammit!) like - who will get married tia or her brother? or - when are you getting her married?

Even worse was when the lady had the gumption to tell me - mann mein koi ho to bata de…(gaaa!)

Who is she, like my life coach??

I quickly reassure the lady (and mum) that there was no one, despite my craving to mess with her mind. Why did I do that? cos otherwise I’d have hell to pay!

It took me 21 years to find the guy I thought I wanted to spend my life with. I don’t know whether I can wait another 21…

But the cutest thing, was the lady’s 3 month grandduaghter shriya. Aaaaw! She was so quiet when I carried her. I think i want one…..nobody heard that right??

I mean there was only one guy I ever wanted to have kids with (yeah it’s the same guy I wanted to marry you idiot!). I’d love to be a single mum, but I think I wouldn’t be allowed (literally and physically) to do that. I mean that way you don’t have to live with someone you don’t love or someone who doesn’t love you, no issues (apart from the baby) and you don’t have to bother about anybody else but you and the baby.

Another question is - why would you want to have a baby? That is such a selfish thing.

*hunh* We women are under a lot of pressure. To not conform. It is a horrible thing actually.

O-the-hell-of love: to do or not to do…

Okay..so when is it gonna be over?

The guy: ..there aren’t enough resources you idiot!But know what…

So..when are we gonna get to the point where we are exs? She swirled her drink..

The guy: I absolutely loved it. we got to this point on the mountain where you could see…

When are we gonna hate each other? When are we gonna scowl when we see each other’s name on the messenger?

The guy: Best vodka ever. Best vodka. Mansa took a sip and that’s all he was on the floor..ha ha ha

You know it’s gonna happen..is the wait worth it?

The guy: my niece doesn’t like it at all…

Just tell me you love. No don’t tell me you love me. That way when we break up I wouldn’t feel bad. Hmm…is it better to love someone and break up or be with someone and know he doesn’t love you? Hmm…

I hate you but that’s bcos I think I like you!

There is this dude..I mean guy..and I am absolutely mean to him. I mean I never cut him any slack and I kept wondering why i was so mean to him. And I realized maybe, just MAYBE I am scared I’d be attracted to him. The guy’s a mallu too. I was so mean to him i am sure he thinks I am a first class bitch. I avoid him like the plague but give him a smile or two, just bcos i feel guilty.
*chuckle* quite weird. This is like when we were kids..we used to be mean to the people we are attracted to or liked.

Wheel deal

You know the vehicle is a:

1. IT company shuttle/van, if the people traveling in it are sleeping

2. A college bus, if you hear a lot of swear words and maybe a bit of PDA

3. A school bus, if you can feel a lot of energy and excitement coming from the bus and hear a lot of noise

4. A public transport vehicle, if everyone is standing..even when the seats are empty!

Moon River

Moon River, wider than a mile,
I’m crossing you in style some day.
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker,
wherever you’re going I’m going your way.
Two drifters off to see the world.
There’s such a lot of world to see.
We’re after the same rainbow’s end–
waiting ’round the bend,
my huckleberry friend,
Moon River and me.

To Ma’am, with love

I just got the best news - my friend got a job…as a psych prof! That’s not the amazing part. The amazing part is that she was the baby of our gang and she looks like a cute 19 year old.

I was just wondering..what if I had become a lecturer.. *chuckle*. Hey i’d be damn good lecturer. I used to teach my classmates Shakespeare’s Merchant of venice before the class started. See we were supposed to read up before class, but I somehow understood the language better than some of my classmates, so they used to ask me for help.

I am damn good at explaining. That comes from the times I had to lie in school for many things

Heh heh..imagine me..a teacher! Hillarious.

Enter Sandman

My nightmares are back.

I have had these nightmares past three years. It’s the same damn dream - evil everywhere (demonic) and I am surrounded by it and i am trying to fight and/or run away. They are so bad I get night terrors - that is I suddenly wake up from my nightmare, sweating, screaming and my heart beating so fast..almost a panic attack. I am so scared to sleep for the next one hour, and eventually when I do, it isn’t deep sleep.

I am not sure whether this is pavor nocturnis or night terror. The difference between what I face and night terror is that the person doesn’t wake up, but I do. I am wide awake after the nightmare. And after I wake up I am so scared to even sit in my bedroom. The last time this happened it was one of the weekdays and I went to office looking like one of the pale ghosts.

And thanks Varunnair for replying to my message. It really helped.

Show me the painkillers!

I am apparently too..Wisdomous. I had to get my wisdom tooth removed.

We decided to go to this dentist in thippasandra, and we were told he was an old guy. So I went there and the guy turned out to be a young guy who looked a lot like Akshay Kumar. He decided the tooth has to be extracted and we set out on our painful journey to removing a healthy tooth whose only crime was being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

After being injected with anesthesia, he literally wrestled with my tooth to get it out. And once it was out the pain was horrible.  And since is this the second time in my life I have been to the dentist, I seemed to have forgotten the dentist etiquettes - spit, wipe,etc. Since the dentist was cute I didn’t make too much of a fuss I was dying for the pain killers but could have it only 30 mins after the extraction. (still feel a bit giddy )

I realized the dentist was one of those young smart guys. As we left I gave him my business card, and he looked at my card and saif ‘oh ***, world’s best business run ***’. I interrupted him and give him the new tagline - Best run businesses run…

Btw if anyone needs a good dentist - Mahesh Kumar S is the guy’s name. The clinic is on Thippasandra Main Road next to Cool Club, opposite Arun ice cream. (He charged me 150 bucks for extraction, which seems all right)
