Zindagi...

Like Audrey says in Breakfast at Tiffany's, no matter what I do, my account balance doesn't seem to increase at all. In my case it's no matter what I don't do also and when the salary message comes every month, it can be less than last time but never more. I mean, I get a monthly salary, I'm not expensive and my account doesn't have a hole. How do I manage to have this state of affairs! And everybody's favourite goal these days is to get me off the job! Whenever my mother feels guilty about leaving Bangalore she asks me to resign immediately and same with P when he feels harassed about anything connected with home.Resign and do what! What of all those things that I wanted to do with my money? I remember the soaring feeling when I got my first salary at 21 and I don't want to feel caged now, not with respect to money, ever. There is only so much frustration one can bear.

I had somehow always thought that Pakistani women didn't wear a saree. You know, one of those things you intuitively know for sure and never want to validate. They sure look beautiful in it!

May 31st is nearing. I don't care where I go as long as I continue working from home.

I'm an escapist.
