After a longggg stretch of vetti not being, vetti is bak (ching chinga cha chaka ching ching cha!)
Let me explain how the first part of my hiatus went:
Hey di di! Can you 'run' to the supermarket and get me this? i need it on the xth day of the wedding
Hey di di! Can you 'run' to the market nearby and get me this? i need it on the xth day of the wedding
Hey di di! Can you 'run' to Health n Glow n get me that? i need it on the xth day of my wedding
Hey di di! I have got ugly spots on my face di....how will I look like a blushing bride if my bluch is covered by spots?
Hey di di! I will not be able to wake up at 11am on weekends any more
Yups...a seperate day must be dedicated to the bride's sister or maid of honor as she calls me, for putting up wit the confised bride!
But hey...the wedding seems to have rushed by....i survived it...there were only 4 maamis who went 'Ur route has cleared huh? he he!'...she survived it..it all ended well..
So I should be relieved of the wedding jabber right? Nopes....somebody once said when one door closes, another opens...i think the doors actually stand for my sisters' mouths....yeah the younger sister stayed on for her vacation.
So how did the next few days go? Pikaachuuu! Kamaeyaaa maeyaaaa! DragonballZ! I enjoy the occasional Anime myself...but wow! Now dont get me wrong...shes not 12 yrs old as u'd expect her to be...shes 18! (I kno all u guys r itching to type 'u r 22 n still the same as her'..so i'm acknowledging it now itself n saved u the trouble of typing!)
Then started...aah! the full fledged era of the polar bear! The wise, wonderful words, speeches n phrases of our great leader, the bear as hes fondly called, cannot be typed here. Such is the beauty n wonder of his thoughts n actions! Whattey golden eraaa!
Right now, the iron fist has loosened a bit but too late....the dragonballZ maniac who now calls herself DoT is gone...and taken the laptop with her!
The married sister has just started going back to the office n is back with vengeance...now on phone
While I'm typing this, I look like the Hunchback of Noterdame minus the hunch...one eye bigger than the other...my hair looking like 2 generations of pigeons have hatched there...my spectacles(which i hate wearing btw) at the tip of my nose
Sigh! I dont know what is gonna drive me crazy now....the sweltering heat here in Chennai....or...wat the heck! you'l probably see me in the next episode of 'When Bears Attack'!
PS: the ching ching cha is dedicated to an orangutan i kno :D

Epdi Irundha Naan.....
Its been one of those days...when you wake up all grrrr and continue to b in the state wen find u cudnt eat decent breakfast coz ur stomach is soo upset..its depressd! And somehow, right now...I am still in that state..even though I have had crappier days than this. Can you get up from the wrong side of the bed..if technically..u follow the Indian tradition of sleeping on the floor on hot summer days?
So I'm gonna start looking at things more optimistically....
hmmmm...
wait...its not easy to change mode so soon...
hmmm......
My headache is soo bad that it doesnt matter if i listen to songs in fulll volume...it cant get any worse right? :D
I luv tat my life is soo jam packed...i also like the 'thr r only 10 days to the wedding...u cme home so late..wen do we get the rest of the shopping done?! u have a home u kno!' chant i listen to every nite before going to sleep...it sorta makes the day more complete n puts me to sleep...faster!
(20 mins later...)
I was just away from my desk coz I was in hiding from polar bears (yes..i am in chennai...not in Minsk). I am in this wonderful mood now thanx to this blog someone showed me....
So now...due to drastic mood swing in the wonderful playgrnd called my head...i am abruptly ending this blog.
Thank you for reading :D :D :D
Toodles!

The Big Fat Indian Wedding
15 yrs back, weddings meant ganging up with a bunch of kids u hadnt even met till then...causing havoc wherever u go...pushing down stuff, stealing stuff from the kitchen..getting chided by atleast 4 adults, who also u hadnt met till then.
5 yrs back, it became about meeting friends and cousins...going around shouting 'whr's the food? when's the food?!' and teasing the bride or the groom...whoever u know well enough and making him/her turn red around the spouse.
Now...its pretty much the same...only now u know most of their kadalai history and can quote wrt context. But when it becomes your own sister's wedding...run for cover! Its serious advice...not that I'm anti wedding-preparation or anti-sister....it just becomes !@#$%&#!@ when u'v climbed up n down the stairs of every single sari shop in the city...u kno the price of each model of salwar in different shops...u get to listen to uninterrupted sessions of ur sister getting the usual cold-feet, weeks before the wedding..right before going to bed..which goes away when the next day dawns btw...oww the list is endless! Add the grumbling relatives, the anxious parents, the over-enthued-to-help-but-always-getting-in-the-way aunts, the accounts balancing fathers and uncles....
The Indian Wedding is a big, expensive messy affair....something that drags on till a month after the wedding....no wonder thr r a million movies based on it!
Someday, I'l probably cherish this time...but seeing tat thrs one more sister in the queue, i am crossing my fingers for hope n luck!

The Darkness
Everywhere I turned, there was darkness. I could here people calling out to me, yelling...asking me not to go too far off....grandparents praying nobody gets hurt...parents afraid to let go off their children's hands...shadows cursing me in my path to the unending darkness. On the way, I could hear a child crying, calling out to its mother in panic...I could see sudden glows of light...people asking me where i was headed...people askin me where they are headed.....sudden bursts of a mechanical voice instructing and informing....
No...this is not the beginning of a morose, touch-the-heart story...its the Great Chennai blackout of May 12th. Yups..the whole city was beeping dark....all the way from my house to the completely overcrowded, chaotic station..including the station!
It was actually kinda fun...my only regret: I wasn't stuck in an ATM vestibule with some hunk...I was stuck in the Chennai Egmore station listening to a paati shout all galeej at a guy who'd stamped her stretched feet in the dark!
