When your grandmom says that you have put on "a little" weight, it means you are FAT.
Time to hit the gym..
Completed the two long overdue reviews.
Met my deadline.
Changed paper in the kitchen cupboards after many many months.
Drove out the dinosaur from the fridge and stocked it up.
Now I should be relaxed, right? Right?
"Hypergraphia".
So THAT is what I suffer from.
Read the sentence below carefully...
'I do not know where family doctors acquired illegibly perplexing handwriting nevertheless, extraordinary pharmaceutical intellectuality counterbalancing indecipherability, transcendentalizes intercommunications incomprehensibleness'.
This is a sentence where the 'Nth' word is 'N' letters long.
e.g. 3rd word is 3 letters long, 8th word is 8 letters long and so on....
My namesake...a gift to my folks (Pampra pampra pam..painted by yours truly).. Still looking for a decent Saraswathi to gift to husband's folks
If anyone comes across an ethnic sketch of Saraswathi on glass, please let me know.
My garden is finally looking up after all my pleads, begs, entreats and ultimatums to it. The insects who have my one whole month of TLC for breakfast are my current staunchest enemies.
The ugly green tube you see was bought for me by the fellow who cleaned up the yard when we had moved in. He had better have some potent defense strategy in place for the next time I see him, for off loading a watering tube that weighs as much as I do. I have built more upper arm muscles than Michael Jordan, just by watering my plants periodically.
Should I feel disgusted or proud about the fact that my f-i-m syndrome is not restricted to pregnancy issues alone?
Last week, during one of my Grand-Sweets errands, I ran into a school-mate. After a few microseconds of initial groping around for her name inside my hardware, I remembered it and we said the usual "Hi, how are you? It has been YEARS...". Let us just call her S.L.
So far, so good.
So, S.L tells me that she works in a local arts & sciences college and is the VICE PRINCIPAL of the college.
I could have replied "Congratulations".
I could have said "Wonderful".
It would have been great if I had said "I knew you would become someone important"
Or at least I could have said "Good for you".
But what do I say?
"How come?"
I know vice principals of colleges don't blog hop; if they did, they would not be vice principals in the first place. Still, if by any remote chance S.L. visits this blog site, despite her very probable vow never to have anything to do with me ever again, the following message is for her -
That's not what I meant.
After a serious faux pas not so long ago, one would imagine that I would have learned a lesson.
We were at a concert today, and at the end of the concert, met a friend I had not seen in the past few months, looking noticably large around the mid-section. I should have ignored the devil in my brain. But the brain is out to kill me. I HAD to know.
Did the first thing that came to my mind. Asked dude if she was pregnant. Dude gives me an exasperated look and says "That's what IIT pays us for. To sit around the table and discuss whose wife is how many months pregnant". I should have anticipated the snappy reply after a concert that included 50 solid minutes of Thodi.
Did I learn my lesson? No.
Decided to put Rambodoc's suggestion to good use. Went up to the friend and said - "Boy, you are glowing.. is there any good news?". She looks very puzzled, first at me, then at her belly, and says "I am due next month. Can't you see?"
Is there any redemption for me?
