The art of clumsy!!!

Hadh paar ho chuki hai! The day started with her fumbling out of bed, tousled hair, slept on her arm, crazy feelin in the head kinda moment! THAT was supposed to be a 'good morning!' with Dad having placed the tea just on the edge of the bed rest... precarious.. more so in my state!!

The day progressed crazily enough! Before leaving Dad casually says 'Packing kar lena!' and she gives him the most lost look that she can probabaly ever manage... He figures she's out of sorts and says, 'Ur gng tonite remember?!' Of course she didn't remember! How could she? She was told 18th!! And somehow even in that pathetic state of hers she just knew twas not the 18th today! Then he comes out with it....'Arrey! Mom dint tell u? I'm busy tonite... so u go tonite to Mom! kya karegi akeli na?! Packin kar lena... will send u the rick at 8:15' She was fuming on the insides... she'd planned a special dinner for him.. she was disappointed! But she couldn't really do anythin... she jus hugged him n said, 'have a good day!'

And she made her way to the washing machine... kept tryin to switch it on somehow... when 'thankfully!!!' she remembered that it doesn't come on till the bulb is switched on! (talk about maddening devices!!) 3 rounds of the machine... and it's still running!! :D Hostel se aaya hua bachcha na! :D That wasn't the end of it though.. the machine thing decided to develop a life of its own and is literallly dancing on the floor with every spin it does! She's given up... she needs to get those closed washed.. dance or not!

Breakfast time... cold coffee fiasco! Don't even ask about this one! Coffee going waste always depresses her!! She did manage to make an omlette with cheese layers and green tea though! (expect it by now: zyada strong chai!! over$^%&$brewed!!)

Next up... open fridge and egg splats to the floor! For no fault of hers... It's currently covered with flour for want of a messy but easy clean up!! I shall eventually get around to that!!

No.. it doesn't end there... she burnt her forehead!! Question: How on earth can someone do that?? Well simple: with a hair straightner that you decide to use without going through the instruction booklet! Result: a mini line shaped blister on her forehead!!

Yes there is more - the head bath and the BURNING hot water coming out of a tap set on 'oh so cold!!!!' Minor implied detail: water heats up in the sun n dopahar ko nahayegi to kya hi hoga!! 'Par itna kitna garam?????'

You are expectin a lastly by now right?? Dream on! The zip of the strolley she was packin her stuff in has malfunctioned! (thankfully this one was repairable by just a wax rub!! Phew!)

N now lastly: (This is royal!) A microwave that started sending out smoke fumes while chicken biryani was on a reheat! The plug's gone! She hopes its nothing more! daddy dearest is trying hard to be sweet about it.. "Don't worry doll.. it was on its way out anyway!!"

Any comments??
