What good is a calendar page if it’s not filled with birthdays, milestones, coffee plans, accomplishments, meetings, random bits of trivia, comments and illustrations?
Not feeling inspired to re-look at things around me these days. I need something NEW.
I remember a perfect french pedicure a few months back. The right shade of pink. Water pink. The kind that makes nails look pink and fresh and sparkling. then it disappeared from the salon, that perfect pink. Yesterday I found it by chance. Am so happy.
The day started off with bad news again. (Please leave my country alone) and then the heavens rumbled and tumbled and cried. Plump drenchy clouds flitted across a clear blue sky. The dust lifted and after a long time, I saw rays. Maybe because today, I needed to see them.
Boxing can be a GOOD thing too.
K is always touting off on how much Hussy and I “box” people when we converse. I have told him time and again that extreme generalization is a way of making things simpler when talking, and that at heart and in life, we are actually quite live and let live. I know he secretly knows and understands this about me, but enjoys having boxed us into the boxing types anyways.
Once (or maybe twice, if I’m particularly unlucky), I accompany an odd 100 or so new IVS kids to watch a Pakistani movie at a local cinema as part of our alumni volunteer city orientation course. Each year I am as horrified- which is perhaps a sign that I still believe that one day, things might change?
This is a screen shot from a song in movie Sholay- the Pakistani version of course, an uncomfortable mix of Zanjeer, Sholay, Sleepy Hollow and a few others I am too mentally exhausted to remember.
