anNyways where was i...... yesh...... besh romantic song......puro anti to what i was gonna write about so i'll do this on the fly.....today by far calcutta has to be the bomb.... the weather is simply to die for....... the streets empty........cloudy sky chilly wind....... the night-sky besh haunting...... leaves on the trees chiming........erratic rain.....that smell of wet earth.....musky and deep.....you try to take deeper breaths.......somehow cleansing.......nice and snug in the good'ol n ragged denim.... a sweat shirt......with felt-lined outer pockets which allow your plams to sweat while the wind whistles past your ear......aah surreal......crap ....bad song on...... i will give thee (ladies and gents) the complete story....uneDited...as i change song i will shall indulge in something that sir bob marley used to refer to as ambrosia .....the gift of gods....

sigh.......double deep sigh

someone said "tis the season to be jolly".....damn americans
i haven't been bloggin for a long time........its not that i didn't want to.......i did honestly i did, but all i have been doin is either cribbin......or cribbin.....and if you missed that.....guess what :- i have been cribbin....sigh
now that thats outta my system......i shall continue
as many of you know i live alone........well almost alone atleast my granma occasionally pops up and stay a while...a long while.....that is if she happens to be in calcutta..... i am fine with that...... she's quite the character......and its like havin a kid of your own.......tucking her in at nite..... sayin "finish your vegetables"......its fun. she says i am too young to be living alone.......lol thats why she must shadow me....... to be honest.......it does get a bit lonely and eerie when the whole house is empty.... i have friends come over..... but that just like a short time cure of sorts...... living alone does have its merits......and especially when your parents are not even in the country....... no surprise visits to worry about....... no "ei...eita korish na...oita korish na"....well i get that over the phone......but what mary jane doesn't know can't hurt mary jane......
freedom is a bad thing.........it is.... but then again it teaches you so many things.... so many
solitude is one thing that i sometimes loath but at time its just what the doctor ordered..... it puts things in perspective......sometimes in a good way....mostly in a bad way......although you do have the choice for change......the problem comes in when you don want to.......i pride myself for being the guy that knows a bit about all things......but stuck in a world that wants you know all about one thing. its sad in a way how people just forget about everything and just stay content with what they have.....and in calcutta its not a trait.....its a virtue. .....don't get me wrong...i am absolutely head over heels for the city.....kintu not keen on the excess baggage. but now a days everything comes with strings attached.....i was out with a coupla friends one day.....well 2 friends and the other was a girlfriend of one of the boys......besh cat cat dress to impress...well spoken too......for the initial 8mins...... as we got to talkin........and the beer soothing with every gulp...... the topics ranged from education to hollywood to bollywood(i excused myself to the loo at this point) to relationships............ like i didn see that coming......so the girl (names change for security reasons) DumDum ...DD for short....came up with the wonderful observation that now a days the roads are like full of pairs.........and how its become so normal and inevitable.....to which we all agreed.....it was our fault that we let DD continue and actually made her think her "wisdom" was much needed......... she went on to say all men are well i don remember word for word......but in my head it sounded like this..."all guys are slabs of stone.....girls being the divine sculptors "..... which is true to some extent.... but then she continued to say without girls guys would still be Neanderthals.......buffalo skin clad with wooden logs in their hands.....the boyfriend promptly puts his arm around DD and show appreciation to the immense book of knowledge that she was.....disregarding the fact that 10secs ago she just called him a cave man..... very proud he was......... now this is where i come in....i love bursting bubbles.... and when theres "catalysts" in my system.......some ppl can vouch for the followin ...."never- i say a never get linguistic argument with me"......its not that i am always rite....but boy will i turn the world around..................lemme tell you why i went hoe-chin-min on her ass..... after 10 mins of jibber jabber from DD.....she asked me..... "so do you have a girlfriend".........generally a smirk comes on my face when ever some one asks me this.......cause i always have this kick ass speech prepared...... kintu i thought verbal sparrin is good only when the other is a worthy and funny opponent.....in this case she was DumDum......so i replied with a simple and happy "no"...... to which she said "thats why".........thats where the baby lit my fire...... and you know what they say about fire....don play with fire you might get burnt....i asked her to elaborate on her observation...... to which she made the following claims..... i looked sadish, i had a rouge unshaven look, i wore jeans and a sweatshirt and a hat.........these are points that i'd expect from a 5 grader not a 20+ woman....... i was so intently listenin..... sadly i think thats what encouraged her to keep goin and goin..... i finished i food...and gulped the last of my beer..... took one deep breath......and well i did get a apologetic look and "please don to gun-ho" look from DD's better half..... but when a gal wants input......you gotta give it to her...... thus came the silencer..... (eita is a special weapon.....acquired at birth....genetic)....... i said most relationships are superficial..... most of the time its done so that one can say...."oo oo i have a girl/boy friend"..... or its totally mojo oriented.......basically its become a status symbol......i asked her what makes you sure that you both are in love.........to which she said......there were signs ......we have a lot in common.... the fact that both of them watch very lame ass hindi movies and happen to like the same animal is not divine intervention........its utter stupidity..... i continued with various other examples..... some how the smiles all faded......the single dude although was havin a blast...... i ended the dinner with this

i said i have seen a lot of the world.....been there and done most of that......so listen carefully while i utter the followin: there are 3 kinds of love/relationship
and being brutally honest the first kind of love is guys/girls have a sexual relationship.... gettin in the pants is the mission name
two......the financial love......do i have to explain this?!
three....the lob-love......very hard to find.......this is the real deal....... fights, misunderstandings, just sittin, smelling hair, crying...........the whole shabang.......

i have been a witness/bystander/victim of all of the above..... and i let dumdum decide which category she fits in....... what made my day was dumdum and boyfriend looked instantaneously at each other.....the guy takes his arm off her shoulder.....she shifts uncomfortably in her seat...the bill comes...and the dumdum pays........
by the way i did thank her for the lovely dinna....and told her hope to see you soon....yeah like thats gotta happen.........



i just had....simply had to add this......tee hee hee
