the other side of the cat
He follows me everywhere....to the kitchen, to the bathroom, not just into the room, but sits within 3 feet of me if not closer ( Read more... ) -
The cat....
The cat has now become a part of ze household.....ze household consists of me, a couple of traumatized plants (that now bear signs of attack by the cat) and the rest of the inanimate but deeply loved possessions....
Take the couch for instance...the couch is a a nice roomy, 3-cushioned, free (the best kinds :) ) 'made for 3 big americans but 5 ( Read more... ) -
Jumpstarting a car
This actually was more fun that I thought it would be.... I had a car that needed to be jumpstarted (sadly, this was mine). I also had another car that could serve as the 'jumper'. Hence, I drove the 'jumper' car to Walmart, picked up jumper cables and then thought about getting to the job. But got distracted by food and a movie instead. So, after ( Read more... ) -

Has it been only 7 weeks since my last post....feels like forever. A lot has happened in the last month.. I have had to say farewell to Crypto and my grandfather within a week of each other...
Most people who know me also know about Crypto, my dog of 13 years, well loved by most, feared (with good reason) by some. It will be tough to go home to no ( Read more... ) -
Reproduction needs some re-thought??
So its been ahwile since I posted, who am I kidding, exactly 5 people read this blog apart from myself, some of them are coerced into reading it by me. But anyway, I convince myself that it doesn't matter, because I am writing for myself, in the end.

Wonder what it is about me that attracts strange guys. Make that strange, older guys or strange younger guys, never nice, same aged guys.
Honestly, its getting a little old now. Its getting to that point where I'm tired of having to think what it is that they think I will deliver.
And honestly, I don't do anything to deserve this kind of interest, I ( Read more... ) -
Earth Hour
Its 45 minutes into earth hour. I'm sitting in the dark in my living room at Squirrel Hill, Pittsburgh. Just came back from a walk on Murray Ave and to my disappointment, all the restaurants, supermarket, local eateries, pharmacies, houses have their lights on. There's almost no sign of anybody even being aware or caring about this ( Read more... ) -
Crypto
My baby, Crypto, is unwell...he is 12 years old and has come down with a severe case of jaundice.. He has not eaten much in 2 days..and is not co-operative in taking his medications. The doctor says that he has severe jaundice with only a 10% chance of making it. I fear that this is the beginning of the end...and I am a million miles away...able ( Read more... ) -
What's in a name?......Everything!
I think that a name is a very important first impression creator. And its sad that one has no choice to exercise in the word that one adopts as one's own, as one's identity. I think people should wait for personalities, traits to appear before they name somebody as XYZ. Because more often than not, it may not fit. Imagine a vicious, loud Namrata or ( Read more... ) -
Happy 2009
Happy New year, folks! I spent new years in a parking lot, the whole 10, 9, 8 ..... the last moments of the year that was and is no more, for me, were counted down in a parking lot. But, I was amidst friends so it wasn't half as bad as it sounds. Then we made way to a club where we saw some censored scenes that totally made the cover charge ( Read more... )
