the bright sun wakes me up at 8.30... one look at the watch, i throw the blankets off in a hurry... maybe i can still catch the bus... if i skip the breakfast... and the tea... the bath could wait until evening... maybe the late night brushing yesterday would hold for some time more... and then it hits me... SUNDAY!!! that's my favorite part... the hitting... i snuggle back into the blanket with a grin... back to sleep in 60seconds...
the phone wakes me up... it's 1pm... no exaggerations here... for skeptics, there is still a rare species that still manages to sleep >12hours a day or night...
once awake though, i get hyperactive... go around cleaning up everything... my idea of cleaning up though may differ from the others... for eg: if i see clothes strewn around, i pick them up and dump them in the cupboard, lean against it and quickly close the door, before anything pops back out... and then i go to the kitchen for a cup of tea...
"YOU WANT SOME TEA TOO???" i holler to deepa... she's trying to get her excels right for the 6th time... the supercomputer she's got from infy hangs every time she does anything more complex than add three numbers... or multiply two... she is trying to do some pivot tables... yeah, right... fat chance of that!!!
i prepare the tea... it has a unique flavor coz of the patented process i follow... maybe someday, i'll share the secret... okay, enough of eating and drinking... fast forward to 6pm...
we set out shoppping... walk to the JNC area... shop for hours... pants, skirts, jackets... a black dress i dearly wanted was vetoed... (deepa insisted they wouldn't let me inside infy premises... even on a friday...even if i paid the fine...")
dinner at 'coconut grove'... a highly brain-taxing menu... everything's in mallu, for heaven's sake!! but the food was delicious, not too shocking and we headed happily to dessert at a kwality walls place nearby... and then walked all the way back home... all the shocked stares kinda reminded us of the time... well past 10.30... envied the guys who strolled without a care... a mental note to put an ad for a boyfriend soon...
finally home... and some music and reading... oh, i did manage to read 'love in the time of cholera'... all of 68 pages... !!
so, that was a 2.78 starred weeekend... !!
