The rose that was dying(probably suicide)in my balcony is to be given new life @ my friend's place. It will be placed in the ground where it belongs rather than be in a plant pot. This rose, when watered refused to drink it up and chose to get rid of if all by the means of the holes at the bottom of the pot. Serves it right to be dying of dehydration and heat-exhaustion from the hot summer sun.

Despite the evidence and rumors, I am Not a brown-thumb or against plants(YEAH! whatever that is!!). It is just that I choose to be a Green-Thumb to particular plants and not to others! That's all.

I tried putting on Mehndi the other day and even tho' it did not turn out to be as finely crafted as I expected it to be, it looked not 2 bad...for a first-time self applicator. Only thing was that the lines were not as fine as they should have been. but Meh! I say, just like Siren does - who (incidentally) has not been seen lately in the cyber-world. wonder wassup wid her!

My job-search so far has been fruitless. I hope to harvest some salary in the near future, if not ASAP.

My dream/perfect life (the only things lacking was me not having my dream job..or any job 4 that matter) is abt to come to an end, with my Hubby boy returning soon. Past 12 days have been bliss (well, except for the spider) because of the following reasons:

* Absodoodley no cooking whatsoever
* Watching endless # of movies
* Staring @ the TV until I fall asleep
* Going anywhere I please, @ anytime I please
* Not having to do grocery shopping
* Eating anything I want to, anytime I want to
* Not having to hear abt how the whole bed gets occupied by me
* Endless surfing on the net – no time restrictions or “it’s late – get some sleep”

Basically I think it's about having responisibilities....NONE!!! or not being controlled by other factors which are contributed to the equation by being married and sharing the house with a person. Don't get me wrong, I love being with him. I think this "bliss/dream life" is a remnant of how I wanted to be when I grew up. I am glad I got to experience it, for now I know how it would have been, and not wonder anymore.

I sure am glad that Hubby boy is getting back...He can take care of the spider and/or other insects and be my Knight in Shining Armour.

Woohoo! I got maa..aa..ii..l!I got maa..aa..ii..l!! what's so great abt it u ask? It is from Nira. Those of u who don't remember my ramblings abt her, see >>this<< and >>this<<.

She is in Russia, and according to her...living!(as in existing). well, having heard abt the Russian winter, I sure will be happy to be NOT dead. even tho' I know that she did not mean that kind of existance.

Hubby boy is in Norway @ the moment. atleast he's escaping the hot summer sun. it burneth the skin!

Christmas was such a non-event. I hope the fireworks are good on NY eve.

Paranoia seems to be growing on me lately. After the spider episode I am quite the bit hesitant to even step into the bedroom. Yeah! Yeah!! I hear the question; Answer :- On the sofabed.

My! My!! what a wonderful world of parents we live in. Geez! (No offence Paree!)

Went to this particular 31st day ceremony for a baby. almost everyone there was carrying around an infant - so much so that I did not know who was whose!! Anyhoo, they - the moms started talking abt collicks, sleepless nights and other matters of the kind. I did not know what on earth they were on abt - except that they were talking abt the kids. They even asked me when I was going to have my babies. One even suggested that they might visit my "bambino" in ten months' time. The nerve! (Oh! well...how were they to know abt my twins in November!).

Who ARE these people? They are the ppl who ask you( endless stream of questions) - "so-when will we see ur baby", "xx years since u married? no kids yet?where's ur husband?maybe I should have a talk with him" <-- YEAH! maybe then he'll tell u 2 shut up!!

This thing of getting caught in the middle of "infants,kids & I've-had-enough-would-u-please-shutup-now" seems to happen to me at EVERY get together. is this some sort of conspiracy? actually I am not the only person experiencing this exruciating (one way) conversations, there is a another soul which shares it with me. unfortunately for me she was not there today!!!

LIFE!!!

It seems to have rained the past two nights, I have been very slow realizing it.

well, on the 17th night( the day I posted my last blog) , after having finished my activities I prepared for bed. went into the bedroom...and what do I see? a HUGE ( atleast 8cm across) spider on the wall( now I know why Siren hates them sooooo much)

Now, I wanted it out of my bedroom, I wanted it dead. I was too petrified to go near it. and what if the spider "jumped" on me, while I was attempting murder?hmmm...what to do? I cleared the area so I could run off without tripping over any obstacles that were in the way. then I took some time studying the spider and planning my attack. I decided on contact-film/paper and a shoe. so armed with a large piece of contact paper on a shoe (the sticky side facing out ofcourse) i slowly walked into the room. by this time I was shaking with fear and paranoia. But I crept forward...practicing what I was going to do. I got within an arm's length and with my eys tightly shut threw/smacked the shoe on the wall and/or the spider. it got stuck in it (talk abt a blind hit!!!). I thwacked away until it's limbs were broken and it was no more a moving creature..but just a corpse. And I was relieved...but still shaking!. even after it was dead I did not want to sleep in the bedroom so I had to make do with my sofa bed!!!

( To be sung in Hooray For Humphrey tune)
Hooray for contact..Good Ol' contact..Hooray for the great contact-film/paper

Had the christmas get2gether @ Paree's. Sarah couldn't make it. Presents included a book on Japanese Cuisine...even tho' I am not a "cooking" sort of person. watched Asoka. Kareena Kapoor has joined my line of favourite actresses.

Okies, going to watch a movie until this download I have started completes. ever so S....L....O.....W!!!!

Well, my baby friend has been slow in his attempts to walk. but he stands up holding on to things. apparently he hauled himself onto the sofa and was watching TV safely cuddled in a corner of the sofa. how cool is dat? (Also known as "frightening" to his parents)

I was looking forward (quite a bit) to staying alone @ home.but now that the time is here, I am somewhat uncomfortable - alone in the dwelling. I don't know why! it's not as if i have not been alone (come 2 think of it maybe that is the reason - I have not been alone in the night!!!) I think I am aware that he will not be getting home at 11pm tonight as he usually does (becoz he's flying across the timezones). It's weird, not having him around. I miss him already. I didn't realise how much I had gotten accustomed to having him around ALL the time. food 4 thought!
