The Number Game

*Curtain Rises*

One – more day and the Weekend is here. I love Thursdays, sometimes, a little more than Fridays I think. The fun is in the anticipation, looks like. Of course, Thursdays are even more often when you have/take Friday off. Then, it is like a ‘Brazilian Love Song’. No I am not being corny, bah. That is the name of this awesome Sundae you get at Melting moments. One scoop chocolate, one scoop coffee icecream, with a generous helping of sprinkles and chocolate sauce and what not. Some combination. Just like a Thursday which is actually a Friday.

Two – hours before I get to see little Zo. Who by the way does not seem to want anyone else when I am around * Proud Mommy moment*.However, let me tell you that the same cannot be said about ‘things’ though. The TV, newspaper, the towels, and food, everything else seems to take precedence over Mumma *Proud Mommy moment ends*.

Three – as per me is a very very silly movie. I’ve only heard the story, but I do not get why Tamizh movies have to be so sadistic. I mean, seriously, someone has to die is it? In some cases toh I feel it’s like ok, let me write a story, any story, and then I will write the names of the 3-4 main characters on chits, and pick lots, and Bam! Kill the one picked! Not cool, I must say. The worst of the lot I have seen was ‘7G Rainbow Colony’. Seriously, the climax of that movie gave the term obnoxious a whole new level.

Four – months since I saw my last movie in the movie hall. I know, I left my ickle 2 month old and went for a movie. And I was so proud of us that we managed to do that. Now, that it is much easier to go out, we don’t do it anymore. I hate it that I have missed so many movies that I really wanted to see. So I am pre-booking Ishaqzaade and we are watching it, come what may. Before someone comments on my sad taste for a come-back movie, let me tell you that the last Hindi movie I saw in a movie hall was ZNMD. Yes, go ahead, feel sorry for me. So I get to do this.

Five – is supposed to be my lucky number. You know , because my birth date is the 23rd, so 2+3=5. Actually going by that, it is the same for Zo (14th) and my Mom (also 14th) and my Dad (5th). However, my real lucky number I think is 11. Actually, it is more of a favorite number than lucky number, and I do not have a reason for it. It just sounds like a nice number.

Six – is my shoe size. Well, for most brands that is. For some it is five. Which is why I find it extremely difficult to buy shoes online. There is a 50% chance of them not fitting me well. Also, my only online purchase in the past (by which I mean stuff which I did not order from Flipkart), was a disaster. So I think I will stick to shopping at sales. Online shopping doesn’t seem to be my thing. Oh, which reminds me, I need to order a Booklight, a phone cover and earphones online. Or you can take it as a hint and gift any one/two/all to me. See, I am subtle like that.

Seven – minutes have passed since I wrote the last point and I couldn’t think of anything to write for this one. So I waited the 7 minutes, and then I am typing out this balderdash. I like that word by the way, Balderdash, I read it in Harry Potter I think. I miss Harry Potter , wish there was more, you know to look forward to, seven books were just not enough! Ooh, and there comes the ‘seven’ connection, which I swear, was purely coincidental.

Eight – years today, since I started this blog. There. Now you know why I am doing this post in the first place! Pah, how much one has to struggle to make the post ‘different’. Just so you know, I was going to say ‘interesting’ but I did not want to assume. Heh. Everything’s out here. There are no deleted blogs, old locked blogs, anonymous blogs from the past. It’s just this. All of it, right here. So yes, we have actually managed to complete 8 long long years of spewing irrelevant, incoherent and utter balderdash (that’s thrice, I know, what to do, I love the word!) on this amazing World Wide Web. We thank you for being such patient audience. We really do. *Takes a Bow*

Exit.

*Curtain Falls*

*Peeping from behind the curtain* Don’t go anywhere, we’re still very much around!
