Random thoughts of a restless(ful) mind...

Well .. well I'm finally home and yes, I do feel (and look - my sister's opinion,not mine) like I've left behind an inferno. I feel good to say the least. And I've been sleeping - A LOT. And for a change I'm not thinking a lot. Still what creeps into the mind are random musings, my writings dont have to be on a subject all the time have they.

Random thought 1: Left to myself I always end up being very very uncool - the first thing I did when I returned home was to read Freud back to back. And then took a nap.

Random thought 2: Deep down I am still 6 or something to the effect - my mom had to pillow me because I refused to sleep with an actual pillow.

Random thought 3: I inherently hate junk. Totally. Nothing can explain that out of the entire platter that was made for me I picked sprouts to break my fast.

Random thought 4: Silence unnerves me. Except in Goa. After living in a city where people like worms (or lemmings) occupy every inch of the space there is to occupy, I find my city disturbing. It depressed me a little bit. Which may explain why I have been hooked to the phone since I have come.

Random thought 5: I am a lot lot like Monica in FRIENDS. I love it when things are clean, else all I do is clean things up. And I love taking charge. My ex roomie spent 2 hours telling me how I'd be "in-charge" of my ex-flat for the next 2 months and I spent and hour detailing her all I'd do to and I was actually excited. Shit.

Random thought 6: I am the most a social being I've ever met. I am totally awkward in front of those middle age maami types who are flocking to visit me(? - why on earth. I dont even know half their names. My mom tells me they are in town for one of our cousin's wedding who by the way I dont know how I am related to). Consider this conversation that took place between me and maami(s - aunts for the ignorant):
Maami 1: You have lost weight, and you look dark.
Me: Ya, I had exams (wow, thats how we start conversations now a days?)
Maami 2: So when's this course getting over?
Me: One more year.
Maami 1: You study a lot.
Me: (what?) No I hardly study.
Maami 2: You are at 26.
Me: (depressed) I am 24
Maami 1: Oh, thats Shruti. Avvi here is 2 years younger.
Me: (phew) Ya.
Maami 2: So when are you planning to get married.
Me: (they are not very discreet are they) In a couple of years.
Maami 1: You should have kids by then.
Me: (really angry now) Well I think I know what I should do by then, I'll manage.
(Mom sensing what I wad coming to) Mom: Avvi, go get some water for Maami.
And off I went. I mentally canceled going for tomorrow's wedding. I'll watch Scrubs Season 5.

And so it goes ...
