yesterday was a jinxed day....a day, when u start thinking dat u r gonna give ur best and do great and finish up all d work on agenda and turn out to b a winner by evening..........
but to unfortunately for me it wasnt. to begin with i'd had a very late night and had a very early morking at work. so with 3 hours of super sleep at night i dragged myself out of my bed kickin ma butt to drowsily finish off my mornin chores getting ready for a kathak class at 7.
My house help decided to gimme a fine surprise by not turning up leaving me all the more delighted to get out of a messy home...d seven o clock student turned up half an hour late n kept me waitin n fuming with my kind of sleep aggravation at dat hour.
then had my guruji come at 8 for takin my riyaz... which got done by 11 ...served him some nice steamy poha along with a cuppa piping hot ginger tea... saw him off n hit da shower, got into ma gym wear n off 4 a workout. ran...n jogged n walked n cycled n stepped n sweated it out. back with a flaming tummy rumble...
had a shower n cooked a complete meal with rotis n subji n salad n soup...so much for the 'papi pet'....hogged my way to gloooory. an extremely hot humid and stuffy mumbai spinned my mood...from bad to worst.
headed off to dadar for taking evening classes and the roads greeted me with teaming tonnes of traffic.......all i cud c, was vehicles......took exactly an hour to reach. n saw about 8 lakh people gathered at shivaji park to take darshan of some nirankari baba... i feared getting stamped n grabbed at wrong places....eveything had come to a stand still. i wondered...wot da ****!!! i wish these ppl had shown equal amount of dedication in our electorial voting. i guess condition wud have been better!!!
well...at dat point, i rescued myself till aaji's house to relax. called all my students to tell them dat d class had cancelled!!! wish i cud afford an assistant to do all dis donkey work. but...ground reality hits us on d ground literally...and all my hopes of relaxing were crashed...pathetically.
got d news of ma neighbour in I.C.C.U \due to a massive heart attack. at 50, this super wealthy unmarried banker at d top management post hadnt expected much from his life. his 75 year old mom was all he had to look forward to. all tension in my family as well as his with almost 25 years of neighbour stay....things kind of get emotional n ppl become more close n relations soft... made some quick arrangements along with mom n dad....consoled my aaji n d 75 year old neighbour aaji...
headed straight back home, picking up some new tigers , blue n orange gorami's n red-blue saphire fighter for ma tank....atleast dint quite feel dat lonely in d cab on ma way back....d fish gave me company in swimming thru all dat d day had given....waves of emotion...tears...
