Disambiguation: Need Of The Hour

My son can be a lazy lump. Anything that requires more effort than he's prepared to put in; gets shoved under the rug (literally and figuratively) and often outsourced to us. He's starting to make some strides in reading now and today's homework has words that distinguish the gender between people viz mother-father, brother-sister et... Continue Reading →

Colds- My Ultimate Pet Peeve

I know if I get on this particular pulpit, the few people who do read my blog from time to time might vamoose for good but I can't help my self. I HATE HAVING COLDS!!! I mean let's examine it a bit closely. It's a half-assed health problem. It's not even a sickness. But a... Continue Reading →

Let me start by saying that I've usually felt that Salman Khan is akin to a horse's ass. He isn't that good an actor and the only thing I can say in his favor is that at his age, keeping up with that kind of body and dancing like a lunatic takes stamina. So yay...kudos... Continue Reading →

Oh The Bleeding Hearts…

Various dictionaries define the term "bleeding hearts" in almost the same terms but I like the Merriam Websters version the best viz: a person who shows extravagant sympathy especially for an object of alleged persecution. I have NO clue how Sea World functions. I'm not meant to. I'm meant to go there, buy overpriced tickets, even... Continue Reading →

So laundry...yeah. It's a necessary evil if you want to wear clean clothes and in case you don't have... Continue Reading →

Bloglet: From Highs to Lows

It's my personal view point that very few things have the kind of power to reduce us to feeling tiny and insignificant like technology does. Take this particular case...I got my brand new laptop. Tis pretty. It's not black but I let it slide. Lovely big screen, faster RAM and more memory for me to... Continue Reading →

2015: A Retrospective

2015 is about to come to a close and yet there were times it seemed to drag itself out unendingly! Biggest news from our side is that the brat is now in a big kids' school. He's only in first grade but he seems to be changing perceptibly in front of our eyes. He's learning... Continue Reading →

After School Huffiness

The brat got off the school bus with two holes in the school uniform that hadn't been there when he'd got on the bus in the morning. When I asked him (with a slight frost in my voice) he told me that a "Screaming Death" had made the holes. For the uninitiated, a Screaming Death... Continue Reading →

Travels With An Impatient Child

Imagine having to catch an early morning flight. With a 6 year old in tow. First there's the getting up part: which can be smooth as silk or rocky like the mountains depending upon how badly your kid wants to go on the trip. Then comes the incessant babbling about going to the airport through... Continue Reading →
