It's been kinda crazy around here. Last weekend started trip to office wtih shub, lots of reading in starbucks ( lunch from thela ) and Thai dinner friday and popat trip to Lake Anna. I just loved the rain and had a splendid time driving all the way there. Eating pizza in the car, beside the lake was heavenly. Pulling shubham's lake about scolding me non stop was hilarious too. On the way back we both were sleepy but stayed up coz of the torrential rains :D then it was off to starbucks and time at home.
Sunday was uneventful I think. Right now can't remember any of it ... maybe I wasn't well, AGAIN !! :(
Bought our tickets to india which has led to me planning and making endless Lists and Itineraries.
Past few days have been interesting with the manipulative Anil in the picture. I'm really apalled at the way people are ( refer to post Urrrgh ) ... Just feeling like I've been let down into water with no life jacket... Kinda, nahi very scary !!
On a good note, mommy singh called shub and told him how glad she was I was coming early so I'm feeling better now. Little nervous but I have a good feeling about my trip. Have big plans of dressing up and matakofying all over the place ... ;) Well, that's that ...

India Day Week
The past week was incredible. On Sunday we rocked the dance floor. The day flew by, even though each moment was nervous and tiring. We reached at 12 and the rest came within the next hour. Took lot of pics and practiced a bit on stage. Getting dressed was in itself an ordeal thanks to Amrita darling. The dance was amazing .... Everything went without a glitch !! Well, there were tiny mistake here and there but not much .... I was flying on air after Khushboo went around telling everyone that I choreographed it when people came to congratulate !!
Saturday - Got up in the saw dust home, had bhurji paav while watching Tom and Jerry. For lunch we went to Meditterean Bakery and had a nice,light meal with bakhlawa which we took for the dance participants. After the last 3 dance practices, went home, oiled my hair and marinated fish for baking the evening.
Friday - Got in the morning, to go to Shubham's office but ended up at Ashita's after a little bickering with Shubham about morning getting up and breakfast problems. Spent the whole day there, talking, gossiping, having usal paav, checkign t shirt quotes online, putting together ideas for them, then going for the meeting which was again quite a waste of time and then came home to give Ashita my green suits. Then again went back to Ashita's and put up glitter and stars on the t shirts. Went with Khushboo to Deepali's mailbox and the post box. Had dinner made by ashita for daal and roti and came back home.
Wednesday / Thursday - Day passed in a blur, with practice in the evening.
Tuesday - Went to Khusbhoo's in the morning, where we had a long talk with scrumptous breakfast of butter, cucumber, tomato sandwiches. Practice was in the afternoon after which Ashita , Khushboo and me went to Salsarita's for lunch and then went to Khusbhoo were we prepared dinner for dosa, idlis , sambhar etc. Showed them the videos I'd made for mom and shub and once the cooking was done went home and came back for dinner at 8 and had a wonderful time.

Ants Attack !
Have to talk about yesterday. The morning went in uploading/ downloading the India Day pics and videos. Then in the afternoon as the first few romantic moments of Naitik and Akshara and was in a cool mood. Thought will clean up the house, when I noticed ants had over run the black futon and the india day clothes etc. which obviously put me in a bad, bad mood. Cleaned up, put pepper, vinegar and what not, which had them scattered but not gone :( .
Even bickered with Shubham about it, since the bakhalawa box was what attracted them. Well, needless to say I was upset but when he came home the first question he asked was, " Have you tamed them ? Do they listen to your commands now ? " I couldn't help but feel like a weight was lifted off my shoulders. He then went around talking to the ants, and cracking jokes with them , about them , teasing them ... which had me gigling. He then went on toe spray them with Eternity and smashing them with his hands, as only he can do .
I was exhausted and shub said we'd go out for lunch. I got dressed and we went to Anokha, where we had amazing moghlai food after ages, it seemed. We had a good time eating and talking about the India Day. On our way back there was construction work going on and he again went off on a rant about how the constrution poeple are purposely irritating us. He said " Sick Bastards . " :)) It's not how he says it , but the way he says it that's extremely cute and hilarious. came home and fell asleep instantly.

2nd Wkend of the Month
It's been a horrible few days since I got my catch. Not so much horrible, as uncomfortable. Friday was at home all day nursing it and then the new Monitor came, making my dearest hubby very happy .
In the evening had the loveliest time getting dressed up and then went for P.F.changs and had a lovely meal, with romantic songs being played during the drive and scintillating conversation. Just what I needed. Came home and fell asleep almost instantly.
Saturday, early morning 9 O'clock practice. Was a Very good morning with me driving all by myself for the first time in Months and then the practice was pretty good also. Amrita had got her boss's daughter who being a dancer herself was a big help. The practice was good, after which I drove home and took Shub to diner ;) after which we went for a little shopping - nightwear, personal wear and an amazing black vest and jacket. The trip to Kohls' / Best Buy after had us exhuasted, yet being as thirsty as we were went to Ukrops and bought a lot of fruits. NIght was Love Aaj Kal / Friends time with pizza and watermelon.
During the weekend rushed through the book Fire fly Lane, which was a very touching book and had me totally blue by the end of it, thinkign a lot about myself and what I want from life and what I've had and what wasn't...
Sunday was relaxed with nothing to do and a boo regarding phone bill which led to some steam from all ears involved. And then some from us ;) Evening included dosa/ pastry/ dabeli / drumsticks from Indian Pastry House and then Bed Bath for a long over due shoe rack. At night saw Love ke liye and read some more as shub arranged his room with the new monitor and wires.
My back troubled me all through the weekend and till today morning.
Today morning had a good breakfast of pancakes and strawberries. After which I cleaned up the whole house and put stuff for laundary and dish washer. I'm tired but the whole house is finally clean. :D

Catch Boo Boo
Yesterday was pretty good ! Morning saw Unborn ( yuck ! ) then updated blogs then went to visit Sangeeta then spoke to khusbhoo. When Sunshine came home fooled around like a dummy with LAK music playing. Got him smiling. Poor guy was upset since his 2 hours of work on the 3d model for the TV stand dissappeared !I love it when he laughs :*
Then made poha again, but this time had with sev and was missing bhopal ka mornign poha jalebis . Sigh ! Then saw LUCK, Burn Notice, Royal Pains and Leverage and in that order. Finished reading Hanuman Chalisa in lieu of Rakhi and went to sleep only to get up at 5 am with a horrid catch. Read " FireFly Lane " till 6.30ish then fell asleep again . Morning sucked pretty much and am now lying on the sofa watching tv with back spray and heat pad !
Why is it every time you look forward to something, it Never happens ?! Yesterday Sangeeta also was agreeing to the same. I'd thought would be in starbucks today and have lunch out and now this ! Karan got my rakhi but no one's picking up the phone.

Rakhi 09
Past 3 days have been a blur of dance, late night light cooking, laundry, organizing cupboards and " Yeh rishta kya kehlata hai " :))
Yesterday was Rakhi. Missed home like hell, well Karan more than anything else. Thought of old time and Abhi, Anu bhaiya and how things used to be. Sigh !
Got decked up for practice. Khushboo had got kheer and Anil lemon cake. Practice was tiring with people coming late, talking unnecesarily, bickering stupidly and my headache. My body was aching like hell by the end of it with all the dance moves that I showed and got rejected. Lolzz...

August First weekend.
Didn't do much this past weekend. Friday went to Downtown again with Shub. The music in my mp3 was fabulous and I had good fun playing with the kiddie I saw, as I read the book " Sailing to Capri " After that we went to that mexican place Labamba with had simple, lovely food. On the drive home, Cedrick called saying his father passed away. Went to the grocery picked up panipuri and chat stuff since the ywere supposed to come home. Got wet in the rain on our way to the car. Then drove to their place and played with Danny for a while. Shub helped him make a Fire Truck and then a house with a garage. He was really sweet giving shub credit for making his Perfect house. It was a ironically sad and happy time for us, since emy and cedrick were obviously very upset, busy planning the trip back home and funeral etc. danny was so sweet putting back his grandfather's medictions back in the suitcase even though his mom was tkaing everything out and zipping it up. That evening , we just lazed around and waited for calls. Spent the evening watching movie.
The next morning went for practice after having saadi dal with ghee (first time ) bhindi masala and rice and driving to downtown to drop durgesh ( which we didn't do finally nyways ) . Then went to ced - emy's place and went to Borders for an hour. Practice was ok. After I came home was extra hyper and then cooked Chole Chicken which turned out amazing. Then watched chak de. Sunday we got up , lazed around, had breakfast of cereal, pancakes and cherries and then went for subway instead of mediterranenan( which was closed :( ) and then went for a small picnic to General Shephard's park where there was lovely wind. Evening got scolded severly for bad driving and drove for 1 hour almost as practice on high ways ... 6 - 9 had practice . Everything was normal contrary to the Khusboo - Amrita fued on email / and phone to me coz of practice timings and self absorbtion . How complicated people are !! By the end of practice I was exhausted and shub lovingly offered to make bhurji for dinner, after which we saw Mentalist and Royal Pains along with cherries :) . The day ended with me falling asleep on the couch again. :))
