rambles, rumbles & grumbles: swimming binge...

swimming binge...

yesterday had a little bump in the usual static lines of my life... we(J & I) decided suddenly that we'd go swimming... so since it was the first day of the month and the classes, we decided to join right yesterday... so we went shopping... for me... J already has a swimsuit... after sifting through a myriad of swimsuits... where most of them looked like they were dipped in barrels of industrial waste, i finally found something to my liking... and with a matching cap, i was rearing to plunge into the deepest pool!!

all that was needed was for me to find the swimming pool, pay up the bill and get the IDs which would allow us access... so, i set off on my trusted activa... drove halfway through before it coughed, spluttered and died in the middle of the road... i'd have gone into mechanical details but it just makes me neurotic to even think of the scheming, unreliable junk that is my activa!!! and after all that loving care... there's hardly a scratch on the damn thing... you'd have thought it would reciprocate a fraction of it... but no! it's only a selfish, brutal *#&^%... anyway, before somebody comes running with a bottle of sedatives, i shall finish the story... i called up my cousin and my brother... the latter towed the vehicle while i rambled beside cursing, stomping my foot and acted out the other theatrics... on slopes, he suggested i climb on, but i was so dissillusioned and disappointed with the whole thing, i wanted nothing to do with it...!!

so, there went my swimming classes... and today i have no partner to go... J calculated that Feb had 28 days... and with 4 days off(wednesdays chutti) we'd have just 24 days... and we'd already missed a day...

i was heartbroken... my brand new swimsuit... which had two designs and could be worn inside-out too... lying there in the cupboard, never to be taken out... i felt like a school kid who'd dressed up all nice and clean for the first day of school only to be told Vajpayee had died and so, there'd be no school that day!

i'm considering going today... but all that complex calculation about feb has me confused... will know only when i know...
