Shradha once remarked so in her blog:
The desire to do new and different things that interest you is inversely proportional to the spare time you have.
She meant since she was relatively free at work, her enthusiasm level to do anything had dropped to zero. In my case - since I have a 100 things to do simultaneously, I feel like blogging and relegating tales of some of the things that are currently bugging the hell out of me.
First of all, these forthcoming exams I got to take are making me more cranky than usual. I realized that I dont have time to go to work and do things required of me there, study, come back home, cook an elaborate dinner and again study all at the same time. Crankiness slowly becoming a way of life.
As if things couldnt get worse, my dog’s going into heat. Winkie is downright disgusting right now what with her moaning & panting as soon as she sees another dog. Ugh. Major spaying session is in order immediately next month. Crankiness intensified 130 times.
The weather’s gone crazy as I speak. Yesterday morning was so bright, sunny & terribly hot - I ended up eating two ice-creams at work. Well, I bought the first ice cream for myself. The second one was given by my colleague to whom I had remarked in the morning that she has a magic metabolic system which keeps her so damn thin even as she eats from 9 am to 5 pm nonstop.
I was happy I got a second ice cream but also sad that my metabolic system’s more lazy and blunted compared to hers.
Back to the weather, the pleasant and somewhat hot day suddenly took a U-turn and then out of nowhere thunder & lightening raged till 5 pm. The cold almost ripped my heart out by bedtime. Stupid weather.
On a more cheerful note, my students want to go for a picnic and the menu read something like this:
Puri (Not the regular crispy ones!!!)
Alu dum (Halka halka hot!!! Red!!! Not the yellow one!!!)
Vegetable pulao (Need volunteers for this. If no one volunteers, we will volunteer you. Signed - coordinators)
Sweets. Here, a diagram of a small circle within a big circle was made with an arrow pointing at the centre titled - soft & another arrow pointing at the outer titled - hard. Seems no one knows the name of that particular sweet. Good luck to whoever goes shopping for it.
‘Drinks’. At this point, its somewhat silly not to assume it’ll be soft drinks and nothing else. But I go on and ask them if they mean soft drinks and not even, say Breezer? I was right. Not even Bacardi breezer, it is.
Crankiness reigns supreme as a way of life. For now.
So it was that one of my friend in the group has finally suggested making a table and entering names in a periodic manner because too many people have started saying Its not my turn today! (I myself recall saying these words too many times to count by now) We are still wondering how to solve this particular problem…
