A Tangled Yarn of Thoughts Being Unravelled…
My feet are dry and the heels are cracked but I can't figure out why. I badly want an hour long pedi but that's not gonna happen in the foreseeable future so... am blaming it on the heat and lockdown because it's du jour. Red was busy tapping away at his laptop and I told... Continue Reading →
While it is witty and even pithy to start a blog post with a title like 'Love In The Time Of Corona' as a take off on the famous novel by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, this is also a time of a bit of reflection even if done intermittently. Full disclosure though- I did not read... Continue Reading →
Am sniffly, have a stuffy nose and my head feels like it's full of rocks. Once I gave TO his afterschool snack, I made myself a cuppa joe and leaned into the cup in DEEEEP appreciation. The brat looked at me contemplatively and asked, " You love coffee more than me and P (Red) don't... Continue Reading →
Kangana Ranaut has been in the news for so many things in the recent past that any movie of hers is newsworthy mainly because of the gossip around the actor. Although, IMHO, she's become typecast for her neuroses in the earlier movies; she still manages to deliver a believable performance as person who is psychotic... Continue Reading →
I crashed by myself last night...was listening to music, sorting out playlists...everything you need head space for and which can't always be done effectively with someone staring at you with googly eyes and asking, "what are you doing?" for the millionth time. I avoided weird bedtime conversations but couldn't avoid them during the next morning... Continue Reading →
Red doesn't value my opinion in many things. Par for course since he's a husband. But my choice in music (Hindi, loud and boisterous to some throat warbling that I'm ok to listen to), movies and books is where his skepticism is the highest. I can honestly say he reads stuff that's lightyears away from... Continue Reading →
In order to write I need to read. Sometimes reading what's passed through my head ages ago isn't just hugely entertaining but quite enlightening. This one wasn't enlightening in any way; caused major eye-rolls because things with Red are still status quo in some aspects of our lives. Here goes: Red likes me to tell... Continue Reading →
I occasionally got back and read stuff I'd blogged about earlier. Sometimes I can see an evolution in the style of writing and at other times it seems either pedantic or boring. But this one is relevant even today, hence the repost. It was written 8.5 years ago on a day when I seemed to... Continue Reading →
My husband isn't a person who does a lot of things by himself for others. He doesn't give "of" himself consistently unless it's for his son. For TO this man does everything I expect and then some. But neither does he wait around for others to 'do unto him'. He takes what comes his way,... Continue Reading →
In the last couple of years my reading material has been fairly unchanging. It's been the likes of John Sandford (love his work), Carl Hiaasen (cannot get enough of it) and some new authors I came across courtesy the Kindle store. Amongst them Jana DeLeon stood out because while her work wasn't "hardcore literature" it wasn't silly... Continue Reading →
