Long weekend? Don’t remember much of it

As I am brutally made aware that I would be expected in office sometime around 9 in the morning tomorrow (though I hope to make it there at least before lunch time, or as soon as this bleeding hangover passes by). The long weekend for which the mallu dogs who co-habitat with me have gone home, leaving the lovely, awfully quiet and surprisingly friendly and obedient stray dogs for company I seemed to have fared rather well. Considering that there is enough rum in my body which will put grandma's (don't ask me which one) gastric acid in her system to shame, this revelation did not actually surprise me so much. I was kept quite busy actually, coming to think about it, I did manage to go buy grocery, make myself dinner (well what do you know, I am upping my catch-ability status in the most eligible bachelor list) (for the curious ones, I made veg peas pulao for tonight's dinner, bohrani biryani for yesterday's and plain rice, dal and raita for the day before yesterday's), stock up on booze and smokes (a bachelor not only has to look the part but also act the part). The other biggest time sharing activity I indulged myself in was staying put in front of my laptop and catch up on quite a bit of movies, well, let me see, I saw the following movies: "The shaggy dog" – which only reinforced on my decision to get myself a dog, "The independence day" – yes again (can't make up my mind whether I want to be eternally awesome will smith or the bumbling genius jeff goldbum), "The Full Monty" – been wanting to watch this movie ever since I saw its trailer on star movies when I was in I think 6th grade and I have to tell you, it did not fucking disappoint me one bit, "Die Hard with vengence" – Hey, don't forget I am a guy at the end of the day have to see some cars blowing up and bone crunching action to compensate for the case of the missing balls bought upon due to the viewing of "Mama Mia" – read the previous post (I think, it's the previous post), "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" – viewed it after a very strong recommendation from the Lal Rani and have to say was definitely a surprisingly good watch, the movie grabs you by your balls right from the first scene where the characters start speak, "Cool Money" – some indie movie, decent watch, won't say I grew extra pair of balls or lost my family jewels, "Leatherheads" – Sports movie, I had to do something to make sure that the family jewels were in place you know, and the entire time I was watching this movie I was thinking, Rene and George had a thing what do you suppose is going through George's head when is doing those chemistry-lab-exploding-chemical-reaction-which-makes-you-smile scenes? Weird isn't it?

*Slapping myself from self induced singing around trees with Michele Monahgan and Rene* FUCK! Office!

Well, let me see, surprisingly I have work to do which comes from a reprise of being sitting idle twiddling thumbs listening to music and watching videos on YouTube zombie state. But for how is the question? The chuth's down at MRSI better tell me whatever happened to the paper I submitted. Hate waiting, patience if you ask me or the really long line of beautiful/smart/funny/crazy ex-girlfriends is not my thing. And I think Barnacle has gone back from where he came from. Though when he did come it was awesome like always.

Well this is what Barnacle was upto, taking cue from his Peace Corps story, Bastard (in this case Me) made this awesome story where I was a Army officer on medical leave because of a surgery (can't tell the details, classified information you see :P) in town for the Independence day celebrations. I don't know about India getting its freedom but the girl sure did free more than one dom, if you know what I mean! :P (Bad joke isn't it?)

Thankfully, the Barnacle has left the building, so it's me back to saving the world with no sidekicks (yes, if you think you are suitable which translates into an IQ of over 115, an nice rack and a firm tushy be sure to get in touch with me).

Anyways, there are 3 more pitchers of Cuba Libre left, and if I intend on going to office before lunchtime I better get started on those right away. The world and India especially needs a Hero.

Cheers,

A

Amul - A Short Story

Its morning again, I can hear the darned birds chirping outside, with my eyes still closed I can hear the ticking sound of the wall clock like the irritating sound of the water faucet dripping. The water faucet never drips in my house, because I don't like it dripping, like the way mom's head was dripping blood, and flooded the floor and spoiled the carpet. I like everything neat and clean. My name is Amul. I believe my father was especially fascinated by the utterly butterly delicious girl. Though I have a liking towards her myself I don't like to acknowledge that to anybody. Though not many people have actually found out about this connection. But am aware of this because my father during one of his happy drunken moods told me about this. And those are rare cases. I know for a fact that even if am genetically part of my father, I will never become like him. I study in the 7 th grade. And I like my school. My favorite subject is math. I don't understand why people...

A moment to Remember – They don’t make movies like these since 2004.

Can you recall the last movie which made you drop your defenses and your cynical view of the world and relationships? Can you recall the last movie which made you yearn for something which you knew was all reel but you hoped that it was real? Can you recall the last movie which made you invest so much in the lead characters that you forgot where you were and cried your soul out? Can you remember the last movie which made you reminiscence of a time when you truly and really believed in fairy tales? I do, well some of them anyway, couple of movies do pop in mind which might answer most of the questions I ask, ‘Jerry Maguire’, ‘Love Story’, ‘The Notebook’ and ‘50 First Dates’. But if you look at the release dates of each of these movies, Jerry Maguire – 1996, Love Story – 1970, The Notebook – 2004, 50 First Dates – 2004, it has been more than a decade since I have seen these movies.  2004, apparently seems to be the year, fairy tales for the new century were written and tra...

FAQs

I have no idea why, not that I am complaining but there is huge surge in the number of people who are now reading my blog. And this has been bought (or is it brought, will never really get the difference between the two) to my attention by the slew of comments, by different people, a majority of them complete strangers. And I always have the same old standard questions which keep cropping every single time whenever I see an anon comment. So just like every other great idea of mine, which seem to glow like those bulbs which I first saw in Archie comics (mostly around Dilton's head, guess that is his name, the nerdy guy, don't really remember it so well, read that when I was in 4 th grade or something, my favorite was Moose), and the idea stuck that why don't I get these questions out of my system, whether they get answered or not is totally different issue. Though I understand that the reason why people chose to be anonymous is either they are famous and want common mortals...
