potential bullshits....

"that's a bullshit", she'd say

with eyes shut so close that

it almost shuts out the twinkle in it....

"almost", i said....

her nose'd quiver and turn a rosy shade

and lips'd reveal what the eyelids hid....

and that made my day, my life...

and i went in seach of 'potential bullshits'..... :)

my brain got swine flu

atleast it feels like it

sorry,i shouldn't be joking about it(swine flu...,i mean)

but seminar came really like a barking bolt out of a really blue sky.....

it wasn't supposed to be until after onam

but suddenly it's this wednesday.

and it seems australia is losing Ashes.... i know you're with England(even i am!), but the sympathy factor is forcing me to wish for an Aussie turnaround....

and sunday's Kutty's housewarming. So that means just one day remains for collection of data, typing report, preparing presentation........

and i went for 10th reunion. It was just gr8....... loved each moment(hey satheerthyaa,.......love you for reading this!)

and i wrote 2 essays for college magazine- one on slumdog and the other on 377(wrote against slumdog and..... for homosexuality)..... random topics,they weren't really my choice. But i am ok with the outputs.....

And i'm loving my new******** Windows 7***********(keep it away from Basil!)

a wrong turn!

i don't get angry easily.......i know that and most people who know me knows that too...

some say this to me as if it's really a bad thing.....

but i was angry the other day.

no, angry is such a benign word-i was infuriated...

so would you....., you might even have slapped him.

no i didn't.

do i regret it? sometimes i do.......

It was the all important license day.

and i was prepared.......even to fail.

that wouldn't have been a miracle(if i failed), i hardly took my 'H' without hitting the iron bars...and the only 2 wheeler i can handle properly is , unfortunately a cycle.....

but still i was game.

don't know about other parts of the world, but here i had to reach chalakkudy(almost 1 hr drive from my home) before 5 in the morning. so that means i got ready by 3:45.

and the only vehicle that was available at that ridiculous time was an auto riksha sponsored by our driving school, it was driven by Mr. Freddy who later went on to lose the driving test...

and it didn't have a head light, so 2 mobiles had to serve that purpose...

the journey was event less if you don't count being stopped by a police jeep on the middle of the  N.H. as an event......

and we reached there around 4:45 and believe me, we weren't the first!

so the next few hours we spent contemplating the moment when the all important Vehicle Inspector would arrive. In between,we also took trials on the car and on the bike.... and to my surprise,i was doing considerably better that day....

and soon it was 9'0 clock and there he was.....

and the queue got shorter pretty soon and it was my turn....

Mr. Inspector just glanced into my papers and said" hey boy,your date is not today......it's on 6th"

i wasn't worried....surely there must be some confusion. I only had to clear it. And there he was- Binoy chettan, my driving teacher.....he'll surely do something.

He did nothing.

He said there was some confusion,and yeah it was his mistake.... I'll have to come again on thursday. That was monday and i was going back to Kottayam the same evening. So to come back on wednesday eve and take my test on thursday and retuning that same evening was not something i'd planned for.

And there he was (Mr. Binoy) grinning as if it was a regular mistake that could happen to anyone....

i should have slapped him, instead i merely said"will call you later"....and went back home.

i know i should have slapped him.......

PS :i didn't take the test on thursday, i will do it some time during the onam vacation...
