The lockdown playlist grows. These are the current songs looped on my phone and in my head. This is also an exercise in the using the Block Editor in WordPress instead of the Classic Editor that I typically turn to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9Dg-g7t2l4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xb3fZmkzy84 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gd_ohoPzYc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXnr-Dx2QaM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bx3s99FNXzI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9AaiVKfB58 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxcDTUMLQJI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HiaOFOMPOBc&list=PLDA374CE45E0837D0&index=2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2ua3O_fdCY

The Non-Social Distancing Playlist
I play music when I head for my bath. And it's usually a shuffled playlist so things stay interesting. In any case, the playlist chose Springsteen's Human Touch and while I love that song, I laughed to myself thinking that it was so, so not right during the time of social distancing and shelter in … Continue reading The Non-Social Distancing Playlist
I Get By With A Little Help From…
Music. Pretty much of all types but I have particular songs earmarked for particular situations or moods rather. There's a specific song for decompressing. The main reason this song became the anthem for situations where the walls seem to be closing in is because of its lyrics. It's beyond ridiculous. Utterly ludicrous. And that's the … Continue reading I Get By With A Little Help From…
Discovering Barcelona-III
This was our last day in Barcelona. We decided to skip the beach in the less than balmy weather and spend the day in the Gothic Quarter instead. A good decision as it turned out. Browsing through a flea market, listening to street musicians and having a perfect lunch in a quaint, hole-in-the-wall place in … Continue reading Discovering Barcelona-III
Nostalgia Endures
My father moved around a lot while I was growing up. And it was a good way to live, everything considered. Met new people every few years, or met the same old faces in different cities and towns and had a good time catching up. India of the late 80s was a vastly different place … Continue reading Nostalgia Endures
Redemption At Long Last…
I don't always deal well with extended weekends where my kid's a part of the equation and Red isn't around or not going to be around to be a buffer. We, TO and I, get along well for a few hours and then I feel like asking his school principal to keep the school going … Continue reading Redemption At Long Last…
Mucho Loco Motoring
TO loves to dance. He does his own thang and is unabashed about it while at home or in any place he feels comfortable. He's lithe, has expressive eyes (which he widens mainly for more effect) and he loves to twirl, swirl and get his groove on. Any song he likes becomes our party track … Continue reading Mucho Loco Motoring
Of Romance and Fried Eyeballs
Four years ago I wrote this blog post and I'm still laughing about it. Sometimes all the way to the loo because when Red ends up being funny inadvertently, it's bad for my bladder. One of the biggest yarns ever spun in my home is about Red getting a 92 in Hindi many moons ago. … Continue reading Of Romance and Fried Eyeballs
A Peppy Earworm
"Dale a tu cuerpo alegría Macarena Que tu cuerpo es pa' darle alegría why cosa buena Dale a tu cuerpo alegría, Macarena Hey Macarena" The offspring has been introduced to the joys of Macarena courtesy Hotel Transylvania-3. It was a silly movie with funky songs popping up at silly places but you know kids...they love … Continue reading A Peppy Earworm
Of Deaf Leopards&Animal Scat
I'd overslept this morning and headed out to the gym midday, MLM in tow. Boy! That should have tipped me off exactly what would ensue while driving those measly 4 kms. But by all means, let me wax on and wax off Daniel-San! Sorry, couldn't help the last bit. Watched the original movie after ages and … Continue reading Of Deaf Leopards&Animal Scat
