mayday!!

On the 1st of May, I decided not to go out roaming to any malls or to the movie theatres. So for the first time in Mumbai I did not go out of the apartment(except for buying my dinner). Got up in the morning at around 1030 hrs(late ‘cos I watched ‘The Inside Man’ the , switched on the teevee and got so engrossed in the movie Oliver Twist (a Roman Polaski film) that I forgot to eat my Breakfast. After that I read the ‘Hush’ (again), and yeah(…….Dorene, Merin, Punnen and Swen !!!(if it all you guys are reading this)….I know it’s too late to write this, but thank you for ’Hush’….I wanted to write a thank you post and all…It is the best b’day present I could get and I read it in the office and whenever I have nothing to do ( I have nothing to do most of the time)).

After getting the pizza from the delivery guy, I watched 5 episodes of the ‘The Hollow Men’ in my roomie’s laptop

NOTE TO SELF: Do not try this again, as you would puke the off pizza your stomach due to continous laughter.

Then switched on to the teevee again and watched a Malayalam film, crappy it was and for about half an hour I was just changing the channels searching for something interesting until Spidey man 2 came to rescue(else maybe I would have thrown the remote outside the window or maybe not…it’s not my teevee)

After having dinner, I watched 5 episodes of ‘Arrested Development’….I think this is was the most overlooked tv-series. Witty and Wicked. So far I found ‘Bringing up Buster’ the funniest.

Watched ‘Annapolis’ after that,….I thought it is another version of the ‘The Officer and the Gentleman’. And after all that it was 2 am in the nite.

NOTE TO SELF AGAIN: get a life

For the heck of it

Two days ago after landing at the Bus depot of Andheri West from the Infinity mall in Versova after reading a comic “Hellboy”. It’s a series of short stories which had ‘Right Hand of Doom’, like the Batman-Black and White graphic novel. I never thought that the HellBoy novels were good. Before going to Infiniti, I just came back to Mumbai from Pune after meeting TM and attending a Christian Rock Concert-which I could have enjoyed more if wasn’t tired, because I was standing for two hours in the train (lot of people go to Pune for the weekend) and walked around M.G Road and played pool( ah!! I won TM). “btw TM I had a premium, premium time man, I enjoyed Pune. We eXtremes should probably get together in Goa.”

and Yeah…back to the bus depot, I thought I could cross over to Andheri East through the train bridge ..and I didn’t have a ticket. I was lazy to go to the other common bridge and I thought it would be a good feel if I cross the station’s bridge without buying a ticket . So I went to the station and…….(screech, my mind was out) I landed infront of the the guy who checks for tickets (can these guys read our mind or something) and he asked for my ticket and I acted as if I was searching for my ticket( why did I do that….I know I dont have a ticket and I don’t know Hindi too to convince him that I lost my ticket). So I gave it up and I thought that since I’m caught I’ll rather pay the fine with a little honour(no comments on the honour thing….even I didn’t know why it’d be honourable to pay a fine). The fine was Rs. 258. Should have taken a ticket….it was only 7 bucks.

Songs I think you should give it a try: Jesus take the wheel - Carrie Underwood, not ready to make nice - Dixie Chicks, John Mayer - wating for the world to change, Unwritten - Natasha Redingfield, Dani - Redhotchillepeppers, I’m shipping upto Boston - Drop Kick Murphys
