A lot of people, including women, have perceived feminists as women who take up the cause of women at large because they have intellect rather than looks or because they think that not having to shave their legs empowers them in some way or the other. The Webster Dictionary defines Feminism as: (a) the belief that... Continue Reading →
Alexa Mornings…
Red bought an Echo Dot for th house last year. Suffice to say it's the digital pet. The offspring has bonded with Alexa quite a bit. I keep hearing his voice trilling , "Alexaaaa" on and off right from the time he's up in the mornings. Echo Dot has more capabilities that can be tapped... Continue Reading →
New Year Rung In!
I woke up today in soft flannel pjs and alone in my bed. And it was bliss!! Red and MLM had crashed in another room because they weren't feeling the fun flowing out of the eardrum-bursting music and seizure-inducing lights from the party in our community. I however have lower standards and wanted to experience... Continue Reading →
In The Dance Of Life…
I often suffer from tip-of-the-tongue phenomenon. My husband would disagree entirely given how often he gets a pained look on his face when I keep gabbing away or how quickly he reminds me that it's really late and I should be FAST ASLEEP already! There are occasions when a particular concept floats into my head... Continue Reading →
Loose Lips…
Yesterday while running an errand I got blocked into a narrow lane by an imbecilic cabbie who had parked bang in the middle of the road with no thought for anyone else. Apparently when you have to take a whizz everything comes a poor second. So there I was, getting more annoyed by the minute... Continue Reading →
Moving On…
I've lived in quite a few places. Changed houses, states, countries and a continent in the process. But the longest I'd lived anywhere till date was the first place Red and I bought after we got married. It wasn't that much of a well-thought out decision. We didn't factor in any green space close by,... Continue Reading →
Dafuq Wake-ups
An unexpectedly early wake-up call brings horror movies to mind.
Ode To My Oddballs
My family is a bit kooky. And in that we're perfectly normal I suppose. Since I don't have a "fly-on-the-wall" access to my friends and neighbors' homes, am assuming that their kookiness can rival and often outdo mine. Those who are painfully normal, I don't know what to say...you are clearly the minority amongst us.... Continue Reading →
The State Of This World
Disclaimer: This blog post is purely my opinion piece rather than any kind of an indictment on any individuals, societies, or beliefs of any kind. While it is backed by inputs I have come across over social media, it is not being cited as any kind of conclusive empirical data. I usually refrain from writing... Continue Reading →
Riding In The Car With A Boy
I don't have to drive my kid around much since he started going to grade school 2 years ago. By the time he gets home it's usually late afternoon and then he snacks, plays, does his homework or has play dates in the community we live in so we seldom step out during weekdays. On...
