Visions!!

Drenched again in rains is our very own Pune. Ofcourse welcome respite from the public water works dept. They had threatened the whole city of a Water Shutdown if the dams were not filled up. Great, now they dont have to do it and that ensures steady supply of water to everyone.

Had mixed emotions during the weekend. Following the rains had to cancel out outings on sunday. Felt bad for that but had no option, i was already suffering from a throat infection and did not wish to aggravate it any further. Tried making onion pakoras at home but at the last minute realised there was little besan left in the kitchen. Hence just put whatever besan we had into the bowl of chopped onions and just tried to fry the whole thing. It turned out to be some kind of besan bhurji and it wasnt bad. I thought it still tested wonderful and probably was happy to put another recipe to the indian cookbook. Christened it as veg-bhurji. They call it experimental cooking.

Had an extremely boring time with Moll Flanders, she returns back to London only to look for another gentleman who can keep her as a mistress. And she succeeds. If Moll were to be born in India she would surely had got a nickname "THURKI-aunty". But ofcourse its England.

Tried watching the film 3 idiots. Someone had said in has some parallels with Five Point Someone. Inspired from the book yes, we can say that. Sadly Aamir Khan does not remotely appear to be a college going kid or a supergenius. But ofcourse its the biggest hit of the year.

Well mom had called up. In my engineering college days, she always asked me when will would i get placed. Once placed she always asked me when i would switch from a BPO to IT industry. Once in the IT industry when would i be relocated to Pune. Now i am in Pune when will the time come when i will be sent onsite to UK,US or Singapore. My mom has this shitty habit of not being straight forward but will beat around the bush till the person understands what she wants to say. This time it took her 2 stories of some distant relatives who are in Singapore (for Mom ofcourse Singapore is the same as Shani-Signapore)before she made me me realise ..oh what a great sin it was to be a software engineer and still remain in India. Ofcourse though she isnt among the brightest minds on this earth yet she has a lot of brilliant people in her family tree. People who will teach Einstein the Theory of Relativity and will give the idea of Atomic Model to John Dalton. Latest is to brag about children going abroad to fulfill the onsite requirements. Mom does not wish to be left behind ofcourse.

Had a wonderful discussion with my better half. Are the girls who frequently sleeps with men before marriege justified in doing so? She always believed no they arent justified but here again i was a fence sitter. I said fine in my personal opinion i would not want a girl to do that but again if someone does it, its their f@#$%^& life.
Match set:
Point 1 Wife: No love and sexual intercourse are divine acts of nature and everybody should respect the laws of nature.
Counter Point Husband: But who has defined the laws of nature. Darwin hasnt and so its not a rule to sleep with one person all your life.
Point2 Wife: You have to respect the institution of marriege and commitment. Sleeping with more than a single partner is an act of adultery.
Counterpoint 2 husband: but should nt it be agreeable if the girl has not married or given a commitment.
Point 3 Wife: That means you support all this and if tomorrow you get a chance you will sleep with women rite???
Counterpoint 3 Husband: Husband speechless. trying hard to think of words that would say " My dear wife, i was yours, i am yours and will be yours in my body, soul and after life.
Husband loses the battle. Wife grins. Husband's ego is hurt. Wife finally says " i love you you my sweetheart. Husband angry with hurt ego.. musters courage and finally says...." i love you too my sweetheart".
