Notes to myself …

Life has moved several months on since the time chop chilli et al happened. Bawa has now learnt how to drive without being a menace to most of society … the sticky substance holding together the Mumbai frigbee herd, namely Andy, left for the distant shores of Kolkata and ASM-ship .. so did Akhil, to the pastures of ATF @ Delhi airport … Umer finally shifted in with me .. Lambu got rid of his Surat posting and shifted his paradigm to Hyderabad, chicken biryani, Bangalore and Archu, good for him … Nagu left his job finally, something everyone knew was only a matter of time … I decided to bring some semblance of physical fitness into life by joining a gym .. developed a taste for Urdu poetry (!), whatever little I understand of it that is .. I also managed to put a name to the kind of music I listen to, Urdu/Hindustani soft rock, complicated but quite accurate … I rediscovered my Lucky Ali collection … and managed to establish the connection between Paulo Coelho and Rumi … last weekend I also managed to make the first cheese omlette of my life which was surprisingly edible .. this was inspired by Sajju’s weekend exploits with eggs, tomatoes, cheese and general stuff which once done used to be termed brunch and treated as such .. Sajju got back to GIM some time back , but not before threatening Motilal’s status as jagat daata … Akkie was here during Sajju’s internship and there were some no holds barred leo-fication sessions, after a long time .. poor Sajju … there are very few people I know outside the Alig circles who could take that kind of lena J .. awesome fun .. Akkie and me also set some privileged people as our benchmark in terms of landing the woman in our lives (separate women I mean), idea being that if these certain people (names withheld for obvious reasons) change their Orkut status to committed before we have the choice of doing so, then we shall both jump off my 6th floor window and put an end to earthly matters .. things do not look too rosy and I have started trying to loosen the grill on the said window …
