Aah! Blogging after a long time! Happy to report that I have something to report! This is the story of the weekend of May 28-29, 2011. It goes something like this.
May 28, 2011, Saturday, 9:30 am: Since school, my weekends have always started on Saturday mornings.. Sometimes they even started on Friday nights.. But nowadays, things are a little different.. Its a beautiful Saturday morning, and I’m in office. I changed jobs about 10 months back.. So you can say that I have a solid experience of wasting away close 40 of my Saturdays in office.. but I’ve still not gotten used to the idea..
May 28, 2011, Saturday, 11:30 am: My first yawn of the day! 5 hrs ahead of the usual schedule! Its going to be a long day..
May 28, 2011, Saturday, 1:30 pm: Fuel for the stomach is fuel for more sleep.. Made the huge mistake of going a Gujarati thali for lunch... Hotel Jay Gurudev... Mere sukh, dukh aur bhook ka saathi since 2005... 60 bucks, unlimited food, bliss.. came back... slept..
May 28, 2011, Saturday, 3:30 pm: woke up from a peaceful open-eyed nap... realised that I’ll have to finish off this copy work that I’d been working on since 2 days... Got to work... six hrs after reaching office... Dont smirk! This was one of those better days!
May 28, 2011, Saturday, 6:45 pm: 15 minutes to go..
May 28, 2011, Saturday, 6:56 am: four minutes to go.. started my everyday post-office psyche up session with “Dhinkachika” song... Salman bhai rock..
May 28, 2011, Saturday, 7:01 am: got late by a minute.. email servers have this irritating habit of clogging up just when you have to send an important mail and get out... 2 MB ke forwards bhejo... instantly chale jayenge... 156kb ka word file bhejo... send/receive... send/receive..send/receive..
May 28, 2011, Saturday, 7:30 pm: Reached Barista.. Familiar faces.. second home.. felt like the first.. and the ‘Ek Ratriya Yojana’ planning starts..
May 28, 2011, Saturday, 7:32 pm: The quickest ‘Ek Ratriya Yojana’ ever! Couple of cans of ‘juice’ and 2 bottles of ‘water’.. Life set hai!... Jugaad kaam chalu..
May 28, 2011, Saturday, 8:30 pm: Slight change of plans.. Need to incorporate Hangover part 2 before the real Hangover.. *Please ticket na mile*.. *Please ticket na mile*..... Ticket mil gaya... Damn!!
May 28, 2011, Saturday, 10:30 pm: “oye! 9 o’clock!! Check out that white skirt!!”... “oye! 3 o’clock!! Kya smile hai yaar!!”... “oye!! Jaldi chalo Vicco Vajradanti ka ad miss ho jaega!!”
May 28, 2011, Saturday, 10:46 pm: “Vicco turmeric, nahin cosmetic.. Vicco turmeric ayurvedic cream”..
May 29, 2011, Sunday, 12:30 am: Hangover 1 was much better than Hangover 2... Part of the reason for the disappointment was also that each additional minute I spent in the theatre.. was one minute less with my ‘juice’ and ‘water’... “Oye! 6 o’clock!! That white skirt is getting into that car! Woh ladke ko dekha?? Languur huur le gaya! Shit!”
May 29, 2011, Sunday, 1:30 am: Water! Wonderful water.. served best with a couple of cubes of ice and cold drink.... waah waah!!
May 29, 2011, Sunday, 3:30 am: “Kisi nazar ko tera intezaar aaj bhi hai... kahaan ho tum ke ye dil, bekarar aaj bhi hai”
May 29, 2011, Sunday, 4:00 am: Incessant ramblings on inconsequential topics like meaning of love, life and love-life... followed by inconsolable pangs of guilt conscience and self-pity..
May 29, 2011, Sunday, 4:30 am: “Main bhatakta hi raha, dard ke viraane me.. waqt likhta raha chehre pe har pal ka hisaab.. meri shoharat mere diwangi ni nazar hui.. pii gayi mai ki botal mere geeton ki kitaab.. aaj lauta hoon to hasne ki adaa bhool gaya.. yeh sheher bhula mujhe, main bhi ise bhool gaya.. Mere apne mere hone ki nishaani maange... aaina mujhse meri pehle si surat maange..”
May 29, 2011, Sunday, 5:10 am: “Ab so ke kya karna hai yaar?! Apne 5:30 ke aas paas chai peene jaate hain..”
May 29, 2011, Sunday, 5:30 am: “abbey hath na yaar!! Sone de”
May 29, 2011, Sunday, 10:30 am: “Murthi! Uthh!! Chal chaai peeke aate hain!!”
May 29, 2011, Sunday, 11:30 am: “Main sach bol raha hoon yaar! ‘juice’ me kuch to locha tha!! Bahut sir dard kar.. Augggghhhhh!!!!”
May 29, 2011, Sunday, 1:00 pm: “Augggghhhhh!!! Damn!”
May 29, 2011, Sunday, 4:30 pm: Must.. wake.. up... cant.. waste.. the.. whole.. Sunday.. like.. this.. Haven’t eaten all day... kahaan jaun?... Barista... but first let me do some shopping... why?.. Why not??!!
May 29, 2011, Sunday, 7:30 pm: Aaah! Nothing like coming to Barista after a round of unnecessary shopping of clothes.. koi jaana pehchana dikh raha hai?... “Oh!! Hi!! *iska naam kya hai* Bas yaar chal raha hai.. *array iska naam kya hai*... oh!! Pukka milte hain.. i’ll give you a call when during the week *Ghanta!! Naam to yaad hai nahin, call kya karega?*... Bye!!”
May 29, 2011, Sunday, 9:30 pm: “Chal Tandoor jaate hain... bahot time hua... long drive bhi ho jaaega”
May 29, 2011, Sunday, 9:45 pm: Bullet Classic 500 is a huge distraction on the road! Kya pick up hai yaar! *note to self: apni 350 ko mechanic ke paas leke jaa!”
May 29, 2011, Sunday, 10:30 pm: Sab saale ‘juice’ peeke aaye hain yahaan pe! But khaana sasta hai..
May 29, 2011, Sunday, 11:15 pm: Chal yaar.. nikalte hain... abhi niklenge to 12 baje tak ghar pahuchenge..
May 29, 2011, Sunday, 11:20 pm: “Array Murthi, peeche ke tyre me hava kam hai kya?”... “Shit”..
May 29, 2011, Sunday, 1:30 am: Home sweet Home! Murthism to self: “sometimes the only things that make an event worth remembering, are the things that go wrong.. terribly wrong!”
