Red reads “interesting” things. He reads fiction, non-fiction and plenty of things that ‘thinking’ people seek out. Am far more pedestrian and I think I know the answer to that as well…let me just pull up my virtual couch as I hark back to my childhood for the insight. When I was in 5th grade,…

Wordsworth Had It Wrong…
The clouds were *not* lonely and he could have done a lot more of the waxing on eloquently about clouds rather than daffodils- which are pretty flowers all said and done. I’m sure I usually drive my co-passengers a bit batty with the clicking sounds from my camera or my mobile, but something comes over me when…
Musing At The Waiting Lounge
A sip of an insipid tea sparks a flavorful memory
A Quick Getaway
Birthdays can be hectic, even without all the trappings of a “proper” birthday party. The Offspring (T.O), who shall not be referred to as MLM anymore, had a relatively no frills birthday this time around and while that didn’t translate to no fun; it was still quite low-key. Be as that may, we are currently…
Movie Review: The Meg
Ever since I was a cute little girl and got introduced to killer sharks by my semi-misguided parents who thought it was ok to take a 2 year to a creature flick; I have sought out shark movies. I have watched the good ones viz Jaws, Deep Blue Sea, The Shallows and its rather limited ilk. I…

Movie Review: Skyscraper
Will Sawyer is no John Maclane. And Skycraper is no Die Hard. But be as that may, it has the potential to be an entertaining movie despite having to live up to the rep of movies of the same ilk having scored BIG at the box office and becoming cult classics. There are mainly 3…
Serenity NOW!!
I’m an only child. That was by design. I am used to space. I love space. Not the ones with galaxies and monkeys in the cube (cue theme music from 2001: A Space Odyssey). But spaaaace. I have one child. One husband. That too is by design. Too much of a good thing and your…
Summer Holidays…Why Moms Crumble
If you’re a mother…chances are that you more than just like your kid. Who could resist them? Imps, scamps and monsters to the core but dammit if they aren’t the cutest ones at that! The reason the charm of the summer holidays wear off so quickly…for moms, is that the child is always looking…
