The Nostalgic Post

I wrote about being nostalgic in this morning's post and this is the follow-on one. It doesn't take a Freud to know that ever since my movement have become restricted to all things essentials, I've been dreaming (day and night-kinds) about open roads, travelling...the whole shebang. We had to cancel our annual summer break road... Continue Reading →

Once Upon A Time…

Once upon a time, there was a dino. He was a fierce predator! But he was quite possibly an outlier because he also loved art. He usually rode on the back of a sweaty, puffing, cursing chunky woman and used to insist on the top berth while travelling in a train. He had started his... Continue Reading →

I Get By With A Lil Help From My Apps

I'm a wee bit narcissistic. I like to look good although you couldn't tell that from my perpetual "in sweatpants and loose tshirts" style but I do like to dress up. Even more so, I like to have a clear complexion and a healthy glow that isn't brought on by a cornucopia of make-up. Sadly,... Continue Reading →

A Spa-cial Intervention

Yesterday I took a break from the germs in my house and went to sample the germs in a friend's place instead. And before all the faces get pinched about taking germs lightly, I'd like to point out that these are all known germs and we've been germing it up long enough so that the... Continue Reading →

Talks With My Nutty One

TO often asks me trivia questions especially about animals. Today's query was about a bird whose name starts with P and ends with an N and it lives on an island. I initially said penguin and got an eyeroll for my troubles. Actually I led with pigeon because where don't those little poop machines live?... Continue Reading →

Never A Dull Moment

TO is the gift that keeps giving. Sadly, I don't know how to switch it off! I was helping him out with some comprehension sentences when the name Elizabeth came up. He knows Elizabeth mainly in conjunction with the Queen and Buckingham palace and automatically tacked on "The Queen" in front of the name leading... Continue Reading →

Sunday Morning Bloglet: Mother&Son

A highly caffeinated and enthusiastic mother greets her only offspring first thing in the morning. Seeing the zombie walk, the groggy look and the utterly gorgeous lashes fan his cheeks she chirps," Oh why are you so beautiful?!!". And the child replies, "Because you made me." "You bet your ass I made you!" "Hey! You... Continue Reading →

Lost In Translation#248

TO had a good time dancing to Shaitaan Ka Saala on New Year's eve but didn't know the name of the song. His Hindi being what it is, half the words just escape him entirely! And when he does utter them, they are so far from where they started out that it's more of a... Continue Reading →

Movie reviews and picture blogs ruled the roost as always with this... Continue Reading →

2020

The year started on a fun enough note. Had plenty of adored people around. There was music. There was dancing. There were hyper kids. Loads of alcohol flowing as well. And lights flashing...the whole shebang! And then we crashed, bleary-eyed, into bed only to be woken up at what seemed like an ungodly hour but... Continue Reading →
