Stroll

Observations during my stroll yesterday:

* There was something wrong with the road. It sure looked like the skin of a newborn indicating a recent makeover, but the horns were insistent. More so than ever, I was walking at the edge of the road , but still, the horns had an angry ring to it. What am I doing wrong. After about 5 mins of ignoring it, I realized, that there was a shiny piece at the edge of the road which I have never seen before. But like me , everyone seemed oblivious to it. Not just me , even the dogs were walking alongside me on the road. Forgotten its name now, been a while since I seen or used one. Hmm.. what is it called? Aah yes, I think its a .. Footpath?

* A new vadapav cart near Laddoos. I was on my compensatory stroll, to make up for the one that I had missed in the morning. But then vadapav is not as plentiful in Bangalore as panipuri for example. And it was not a poor cousin of the real ones. All further walks would henceforth be planned along the same route. Losing weight needs tasty incentives.

* I am miffed. Got into a shop to make inquiries and the shopkeeper wouldn't look into my eyes while responding. Guess he could see a piece of heaven in the book he was pretending to read. Buddy , you need to attend a session on listening skills. And what is with the attitude? I am not a tax collector.

* Lots of Nariya l Paani guys and huge crowds around them.

Heat, people, crowds , horns, the noise, the elements of a very crowded city . But hey , I feel alive in the midst of all this. Alive .:)

Alive ...

S asked me the reason for the lull in blogging , and I honestly do not have a reason. Guess I was

in a non chatty , non bloggy mood. But since I have typed so far , I guess I am out of that mode .

Its been a week of mush indulgence .. mushy movies .. ahem.. :)

The age old antidote to bored spirits is a girl meet boy story Well, yes, its not as simple as that , there is always a scheming ex, a protective parent, a psychotic admirer , sometimes it could be all of them. But the end is always the girl and boy walking away to the sunset (I prefer them galloping away on a black horse) .

Sigh , but I think I have had too much of it this last week It's like that feeling after having too many sweets.

But hey there is IPL now!

Yaaaaaaaa ba daba doooooooooo

In a great mood... Lots of reasons to jump up and down and say 'yayyy' :-))

Onnu -> Fakie is back .. Fakie ? Fake IPL plyer.. and So is IPL season 3. Love the excitement, love the cricket, love the glittery package as well! and I love Fakie's blogs! So yayy for IPL and FIP

Rundu - > Today, not one but two people said that I have lost weight. One of them even asked me how I did it. ( of course I had to come up with a tale of long walks, strict diet , some yoga thrown in as well, the truth being , I have no clue how that happened! and trust me , its better not to say, you didnt do anything in particular about it , people would accuse you of being secretive!) . For someone who has been a close rival to Mr Santa (and perhaps still is !), this is great , stupendous , wonderful news. Yayyy!

Moonu -> And its Friday!! double yay!!!!

Nalu - > And well, nothing I am just happy!

Well, celebrating all of the above with ice creams ! ( a couple of grapes too , to assuage my guilt. Now its no longer a high cal monster, just a harmless fruit salad ;) )
