Just Another Weekend...

"You don't like what u see...
You say I’m being unfair...
You think u know me...
You think I really care?

You have no clue...
I’m not just about
Sentimental shit...
Agree with you…
Day in and day out...
That’s just something
I won’t do…

When I have a bad time,
When I’m in that frame of mind...
It makes no difference
If my poem doesn’t rhyme
And makes no sense…

So long as you get the drift…

Read my lips loud and clear…
Stay out of my face…
Get out of here…
And off my case! "

That btw was written on Friday. Late night I was in a really lousy mood…ready to snap at anyone! Not that anyone was around to face this…Rajiv had slept off and I was trying to write and I figured if I’ve managed to vent my anger in a poem before (Read this) why not again!.... and before everyone starts making random guesses...no this poem is not directed towards Rajiv...!!:-)...no way!

And if you’re wondering if I’m okk now…u bet I am! My anger is quite like the weather we're experiencing here in Delhi (rain today and gone tomorrow). The whole wkends gone by and I had a busy time. In fact Saturday evening we drove down to Gurgaon to my in laws place and got caught in what now seems to be a regular feature in the evenings here…a dust and rain thunderstorm! It was simply crazy driving in that weather…yet at the same time, I loved the whole experience. I was reminded of my days in Assam and Tripura. Back there, rains would just last all through monsoons but for us Delhiite’s this weather is God sent!

However, when the wind howls…and rains lash outside, I don’t always like it! We were visiting my mama’s place in Bhubaneshwar, when the super cyclone hit Orissa. That and another time when I was on a train that was derailed in a bomb blast in Assam have been the two most frightening times of my life…memories of which still numb my senses! And if I were to list out a third such memory, it would be of a flight to Agartala which had to be diverted to Guwahati due to a storm over Bangladesh. It was my worst ever flying experience…the plane swayed all over…and it shuddered and shook like nobody’s business. There are more such incidents but no way am I going to spend my time here recalling them!

Just remembered a line from Ice Age I … I quote Diego (the saber tooth) “nine lives baby!”…hmmmm! (if I were a cat...I'd have few more left too!)

I must admit that living through times like the above make “angry Friday nights” seem so lame!

I haven't slept much this weekend....saturday night (at my in laws), I was up coz first my lil nephew for some reason refused to sleep and kept jabbering away till 1 am! Then the two dogs at my brother in laws place, kept barking till I let them into our room...it was the AC they wanted...!! But before I realized that, the younger of the two dogs had caused a whole lot of ruckus....jumped on the side table in the dining room to get some bananas...and in the process broke the lovely tea set bhabhi had on display!!! The crash had everyone literally jumping out of bed! Bhaiya and Bhabhi missed all this excitement as they were out for a party and got back at 3 am! Which is when I got some sleep too...

Last night (sunday!) I was out at my cousin's for dinner which was lovely. Got home late and then sat down here to read and reply to comments on the previous post. When Vedant's around I avoid late nights. Now I get to stay up and chat online or read a book without worrying about school the next day! And it's a relief to talk to Rajiv without Vedant threatening me "mummmyyyy tum mere papa se baat kyu kar rahi ho...tum papa se pyaar karogi toh meraa dilll toont jaayega!!!".....OMG!! btw I asked him to show me where his dil was...and he promptly pointed to his lil tummy! lol. (he knows where his heart is...though!)

Well…it’s the start of yet another week and one where I will be getting stuff ready for my trip home…so lotsss to do and take care of!

Before I end this, will someone tell me when exactly is “Da Vinci Code” going to be out in the theatres here in Delhi???
