On a good day my hair is wild, frizzy, curly, wavey & unbearable all rolled into one. The only thing that prevents me from shaving this Medusa hair off is the greatest hair related invention ever, the Flat Iron. I bow down to its superior effectiveness. This little gadget has been the line that kept my hair and my sanity in place and I am not sure what I did before I discovered it, or I do but my mind refuses to go back to that painful period in my hair life. But after a while, there comes a point in your hair life when even the Flat Iron can’t work miracles and drastic measures need to be taken. I had reached that point.

Fate
July 29th, 2008 — Family, Friends, Life
We are currently addicted to “How I Met Your Mother”! Fortunately we started watching it after Season 3 ended which meant we could spend weekends with buckets of hot chocolate/tea, running “How I met Your Mother”-marathons. This is the ultimate way to spend a relaxing weekend.
“How I Met Your Mother” is about how a series of events in the main character’s life brought him to the point where he meets his future wife. It got me thinking about my own life, if and how fate had played a role in it. Being Indian, I think the idea of fate is something you grow up with. Often, Indian parents attribute bad events, especially, to fate/destinty/’that’s the way it was meant to be’ type reasons. I am a bit of a skeptic, I would like to think that had I not taken a certain path or made certain decisions, my life, while different would probably have turned out fine. But that was before I met TD. Since then, I cannot begin to imagine what my life would have been like had I not met him, which made me think about what part fate might have played in my life.

Conversation snippet between me and NN:
Me: I smell fart!
NN: I don’t, nose too close to your own ass??
Ahhh, friends - what would I do without them!
This pretty much sums up this Monday for me!
Hello! My name is …

I was reading through my blog, doing some cleaning up, checking that posts were categorized, tagged, waxed and shined when I realized that I didn’t really introduce myself in this blog, I just signed up, set it up and followed an overwhelming urge to put into words what I was feeling at that moment in time.
Mah Peeps!

This week has been pretty emotional so I am going to lighten the mood a little and talk about the characters I have introduced into my blog. When I started this blog, I knew that I would have to mention the people in my life as they play a significant role in my daily life and the way I view the world. Naturally, after bringing up the possibility of becoming a character in my blog, the first reaction was “You better not use my name!!”. So I decided to come up with humorous apt nick names for these wonderful people. I am sure you have been wondering what the abbreviations I have used stand for, so here is a quick guide.
Friendships

Eighteen months ago, a sweet, quiet shy girl (henceforth known as NN) joined our team at work. We sat at the same desk for weeks and never really said anything to each other except at lunchtime. At lunchtime, which we both tended to have in front of our computers, we had a moment of communication only to find out what the other was having for lunch. After which, we both went back to our respective worlds of work..and silence.
