Raining Thoughts

My head is a mess. At this age, I can't afford to loose a screw like this and I've got to find it and repair myself quickly. But sometimes it's really difficult to get myself under control and I'm hoping something will happen, like in the past, which will leave me with no choice. I have a sabbatical coming up of about 2 weeks and I hope that will restore some order.

One jeep knocked me down some days ago and though I survived with only minor bruises, I'm a little jittery while crossing the road etc now. I'm not so fearless while walking, especially in the night, though my accident was in the daytime. I still enjoy walking within the campus of our tech park, though. It's the season of flowers again.

Both the kids love Tangled and we've kind of settled down to watching it once a month. Only thing that upsets Rishi is the kissing part. He thinks it's weird that they should kiss like that though they are not 'relatives'! Anu wants to watch it everyday. I told her it would spoil her eyes and she says, "Let's get a new eye then!"! She thinks she will get two things when she grows up - toe-rings and spectacles and she's baffled that some of us are not wearing spectacles yet.

The other day Rajani and I were talking about our respective colleges and when she said their hostel faced a hill, I told her about our sea. Had a guy not interrupted us, I would've told her about our rainy-night adventure also. I'm going to miss her!

We had women's week celebrations last week and in spite of all the 'discouragement' from the men around, we went for a mid-week movie show. It was Shaadi ke Side Effects and only problem was that I was sitting next to a spinster and while she occasionally smiled, I was feeling a little awkward to laugh at some of the scenes. But it was a good experience to have the whole screen for ourselves and we even threw out a guy who somehow strayed in after the interval.

Will AAP do well in Loksabha elections? I think it will eat into anti-incumbency votes.
