Mumbai Revisted....


"Signing the witness papers @ d court wedding"

I knowww this is late but “Happy Valentines to everyone”…I meant to do a “Valentines” post before I left and then again I thought it would make sense only if I did it on 14th itself…but I was traveling on 14th! I was on my way back to Delhi and sadly 14th ended up being a like any other day…in fact no…it was worse…and I think what made it worse is that it was Valentines and I was stuck at Mumbai airport waiting for a delayed flight!

Well before all that I must also mention that I am also going through a mourning period…for my cell fone…which conked off…died…”mar gaya!!”…on the way to Mumbai…(in some ways I’m quite glad it did…coz I needed a new one desparately) but I hadn’t planned on buying a new one for another couple of months!! So now I feel crippled…lostt…without my fone!!...Can’t use my old fone either coz I gave that away.

Anyway, the Mumbai trip was hectic…too short but the reason I went was fulfilled (the wedding and I was a witness at the court wedding) and I hope things work out well for my friend. I didn’t go out much but I did go shopping for Rajiv and Vedant. I also got to see the sunset at bandstand on Sunday evening…pity I left my camera at home…and it so happens that this time all pics I took are personal pics pertaining to the wedding...normally I take pics of places I visit. That way it’s easier to share it here in my space.

Hmmmm…now I’m back to my regular life in Delhi and one thing that makes me happy here is the weather. Mumbai was HOT! Well, Delhi’s getting warmer too but inside the house it’s pleasant…not using fans yet. But in Mumbai we were using the fan all day and night. Plus moving around during the day was a pain…because of the heat. But a cousin of R’s took me shopping and thank God his car a/c worked perfect. And on the day of the wedding (in court) we hired a cool cab…expensive option but soooo comfy!...

I missed my blog…!! Ummm… I missed being online…and I missed talking to ppl…which I find quite well…odd too coz…these are people I haven’t met or for that matter I hardly know them personally!! I’d gotten so used to visiting blogs…that suddenly sitting around in Mumbai sumtimes had me impatient!!...

Chalo I missed a nice mushy romantic valentines…but I got Holi to look forward to :-) which btw is one of my fav festivals!! Holi…Durga Puja…Diwali…Christmas!! Luvv them!!

Ohhh I had a poem idea running in my head at Mumbai airport…but I realized…not only did I not have access to my pc…or my fone…I wasn’t carrying a pen…or any paper! Phewww….I spent 4 hours (!!) reading and listening to music (luvv my ipod!) and…hmmm…checking out sum interesting lukin guys!! The funny thing is that guys who lukd at me…seemed to luk away quicker than I expected (trust me…I don’t wanna sound conceited…lolz…but !!)…and then I realized (when I went to freshen up) that the sindoor I’d applied on the day of my friend’s wedding was clearly visible…sigh…. :- )

Anyway…feels good to be back home…and be back here…in my space :-)….

PS: I’d luvv to post pics of the wedding BUT this wedding is “yet to be announced” formally….soo…will wait for sum more time to share any pics.
And no I haven’t forgotten about the “tag” yet….next post!!
