Rakhi

Yesterday was busy…took my family to a sweet shop for purchasing sweets for Rakhi….not sure of the time they took but to brief it up-they took way too long. I always thought ladies could spend the whole day shopping, but hello here we are talking of buying Rakhi sweets & only one shop to choose from & still the time they took was enormous & defiantly massive. Then it came to choosing Rakhis & I am sure all of the guys who have sisters have experienced the mixed emotions while talking their sister out to buy rakhis that they just cant make up their minds on which one to take. They will like a rakhi & then will waste 2 hours finding a better one & then will be contented with the one they laid their eyes on earlier & will walk away with it as if it was the most priced & uniques ornament that would embrace their brother’s wrist. Well tired & then had to pick up my cousin who was coming to do the Rakhi rituals. Told her to get off at IFFCO chowk without realizing it would be a mess to spot her(but perhaps that was the best & most convenient place for her to reach). Tried hard to explain at what corner I was waiting, she didn’t have a clue. We waited & then after much waiting & after much phonecall exchanges she happened to reach the right me. It was a long story, she got off at a road before the one I told her to get off & then she had this weird thing that she was standing at the place I told her to stand. She was standing at the place but she had a different frame of refernce from mine. Ohh tiring enough….off we go to our home…..Oops Buddy was alone alone for hours…he had to do his business so got home & took him for a stroll…..ok so my cousinn had bought a chinese cell which had 8 speakers….massive gigantic sound it made….amusing….it kept me hooked for a couple of hours……then ofcourse I realised I wanted to watch some TV…..which further tired me down to my ankles. Dinner was late as all were tired & bhabhi was working on a lot of dishes…..woops finally the day wrapped up & I slept only to get up at 5AM & get ready for office……office was smooth….but yes I felt tired and lazy & had a slight headache from the non alcoholic hangover…seems I needed to catch up on my sleep. Work in office is done but look at the stupid rules….you need to spend 9 hours in office whether you have work or not, whether you like it or not, the stupid system of Time in & Time out, makes me feel I am still in some school. Well waiting to complete those 9 hours to be finally home & just drop dead on my creaky bed if at all it is possible.
Sometimes a creaky sound could be a lullaby; it is just what I need.
