She is hurt.....and that hurts...




Deepak's and my bike at the bike wash......







My bike got a proper wash after almost 18 months (our watchmen do pretend to wash it daily). & this happened after i felt guilty. Because its hurt, there are scratches on it. Not many, just on the guard upfront, that's the part that brushed apart from my leg and hand (that sucks though, the effects of the Humpty Dumpty fall were still there, and now the right hand, shoulder, leg are all hurting again)...but all of a sudden i was very attentive to the bike - pampered it today, washed, cleaned, brakes checked out, went on a drive in the evening, just the 2 of us, slowly around Airoli & laughed at myself .....it was almost as if i was trying to mollify an upset girlfriend!!!

Its funny though. Last year, it rained for 3 - 4 days, there was a hint of rust and i went and got anti - rust applied, got a cover for the bike.....this year there was rust all over and i woke up to it, just yesterday... :)

And people say that's an indication of how i'll treat my wife......

Speaking of whom, i am also out in the marriage market now. Mom's become hyperactive since i turned 27, & my lovely sis, who had an unscheduled vacation due to illness, did everything possible to help her.

So soon, i'll have another person to mollify if i hurt her..... lets see if i take the effort....


PS: Went on a long drive to Worli with sis, only to take a u-turn and come back. Only good thing was that i had sis for company, did not care much for the Bandra - Worli sea-link - its convenient and all, but thats about it....the view is blocked, unless you have an SUV, people drive as if they on a morning walk, and somehow Worli sea face seemed upset about the whole thing.... stupid, i know :)
