How many can you count!

Not sure if i feel it in me to write these days, the point is missing me for sure there. There are days you couldnt stop me from pouring out my craziness, others i'm very unsociable and taciturn. i'm running a streak of it now....

but then i have drafts everywhere, little notes everywhere, tucked in my email, my heart, my head, my palms, my phone, some invisible ones sketched in the thin air, one such woke me up at 2.45am and couldnt put it back.

Gently uncurled taran's arm from me and headed to the living room with my phone in hand.

Thought of all the people who wouldnt mind if i'd call them at this hour, my count didnt go beyond 3 fingers. I'm thankful for that even, i wonder if i'd be on anyone's such count of fingers.

But then who'd answer a call at this hour, and cursed myself of that, these days odd hour is not the only excuse for not answering or returning the calls. My mistakes and incivilities predate me, i figured.

Drank water out of faucet, turned on the idiot box and watched the rest of my fave movie, Pride and Prejudice. The soft light of the moon from the blinds, the warmth from the throw, it seemed like i was on a mini 10 mts pay-vacation type of thingies. 

I dont know why i cant get enough of that movie, i only have seen it more than dozen times now. Jane, lizzie, mr. bennett the father, lydia, mr. bingley, my lovely misunderstood mr. darcy - what endearments am i allowed he asks ? 

I could more easily forgive his vanity if he hadnt wounded mine, Lizzie says --- now that couldnt be put more eloquently. Fell asleep to it on the couch. Why do i look so haggard V asks, i dont know why, but jee thanks.. But i cant wait to tell my count of buddies that i counted them and that dose of movie wasnt enough but i'll live with it for now.

Quietly...

Dosa and left over shami kebab with achaar, t in bed, V in princeton, me enjoying a peaceful moment with music after the craziness this morning, a soccer game that made me yawwn. I wanted to wind down, what better way than talking to a dear dear doll friend. What would life be without friends, mine would be shot to hell, imagine living with myself....The kind words reminded me of my abbu today....thanks ma.

reading this and that, wondering about tomorrows secrets, blah b'day party and a lot more. Seems like i've started a trend, I had pony rides for T's b'day last year, since then 3 friends called me to get the number of the horse farm. They dont make pain killers strong enough, i tell ya...by god, dard jaane ka naam hi nahi leta...

The white noise of the dishwasher is blanketed with the quiteness of the home, the darkness of the surroundings is illuminated by one bulb in the kitchen, me resting at the fireplace, feet up and the comfort of t's fire truck, nasa plane, dump truck, markers, stickers on the floor is so homey...

Ever wonder, how many stories are out there, floating in the wolrd of books, beautiful stories told, beautiful words are sewn together into a life and i still didnt get a chance to read them, my heart sinks a little when that thought swooshes past me.

on my PL


mujhey tukdo mein nahi jeena hai...

katra katra tho nahi peena hai...



wow a beautiful memory came fluttering to me...

lunoo, me, jijju, siddhan, ashwin and sharmaji...

all of us coming back home on bikes after a ice cream trip at the beach in madras late night....

it started to drizzle and suddenly all of us started to sing the main line of this song...funny no body was even drinking...kya yaar.... i miss it so badly...maybe i should go visit my jeejs.
