This is how I look now. Back in my who-cares pre-marriage days, I always tend not to shave on weekends and remain in a mushy look. In today’s after marriage life, she cares more for my looks, not so much as how Ireally look, but as how we look when we go out and so I happen to look clean shaved every other day. This weekend I stayed against her wish. I really couldnt remember when I saw myself so sick the last time!
The quality of the picture sucks, please bear with it. This is from our new digital handycam ( not a camera ). The still picture resolution is very low and this is the best it could do at night light. I am hoping there is a magic that we could do to it so the still pictures are better instead of buying another $200 gadget, that will add to my already short list of hardly used electronic items.
You also see I have grown so much hair. The last time I remember when I went for a hair cut is past september. It doesnt look that bad in this picture, but looks horrible when I get off from my bed early in the morning. I know everyone at work has been giving this bizzaire look sometimes, when I get into the office on a windy day. you dont know why? how would you look when a part of your hair is turning up and while another part turning down on the left side and another on front and right side, bizzaire look is perhaps an understatement. But I am unmoved with determination to make it even worse!
The weekend went past without much of entertainment. We did some shopping for crafts yesterday in staten island. We visited the Ranganathar Temple in pomona today and had lunch and visa/hari’s place. It was so god-damn difficult to stay awake after the neck-full meal, I took a quick nap for little over an hour before harini pulled me out. We drove back for two hours to reach home. We had interesting conversations about my career and possibly her future career. After reaching home, I placed a request with harini to kindly give me some time for myself to roam around the web for any interesting read and she unwillingly obliged.
I am just overwhelmed by the world of blogs. Every tom dick and harry like me writes and the bitter truth everything is pretty interesting to read. I came across one of those yet another nice indian blog, http://techrose.org/.
This made me think, where do i stand? There is so much out there, is my blog good enough to spend someones time to read? well, should I care? probably not. I realized I write for myself and it makes no sense to even try to compare. I can only try harder. I am atleast acknowledging the fact that I am not good, but atleast I try. My mind really works like junk sometimes, I talk for and against any damn topic. May be I need to be more creative about what I am writing. If thats true, I am not sure how I came up with the idea of writing about my new hair style earlier.
harini is just bugging me as I type this to have dinner. She has made ‘aval uppma’, and as always I am the scape goat. So she is waiting for me to taste it before she does. She will slice my head off for saying that. I happily admit to be a scape goat, when she has spent the past hour cooking it, while I was enjoying my time here. ok, let me go. GN
