caught with Pants down and other Randomness..

OK, I am just going to come out and say it - I watched it - rather transfixed - without blinking. And this "watching" could have nicely gone on for a little while longer had I not heard Biju walk in on me, I quickly grabbed the remote to change the channel- and its such precise times that the bloody remote acts like a man - no matter what button you push - it does ... nothing !!!!!  Then I head the question i was dreading ... arrgghhh ..... " Kushi, what are you watching?" ...shame ...shamee... I would not have been so mortified had some one walked in on me watching porn - actually, I would have patted the seat next to me and asked them to come join me ... BUT you see I wasn't watching porn....I was watching the Kardashian reality show( again .. Don't you judge me !!!!) 

Actually this walking in seems to happen to me a lot lately.... take for instance ... us friends were sitting chatting at some random garden on a weekend night. Some how the discussion turned to calories - now a point to note here is that I hang out with 4 guyz and I wasn't one who broached the topic ;) ( times have changed my friends - discussions on calories is no longer proprietary to women) as the discussions progressed ... i dunno why.. may be it was the company .. may be it was the bloody camaraderie but I raised my hand in a boy scout style( yeah i am prone to such "random" actions) and said " I Anu give up tea from this day onwards...... " even as i was finishing this declaration - i had a feeling of "ohhhh what i have done...." If you know me - you know how much i looobe my caffine - you know that T-shirt quote "give me my caffeine and no one gets hurt.... well that was penned because of me ( OK.. OK.. not me but you get the point) 

Anyways so this declaration was so public that I haaad to stick to it!!!! The first day without tea ... was ... DISASTER!!! All I could think of was that rush-  ... ohh and by the second day - I could have forked some one in the eye for a sip of tea...... Anyways I some how made it to the 1 week mark without killing someone. It so happened that we all were to do our Friday night ritual of eating out at a local Indian place and somehow I ended the only one there - this was my opportunity !!! My evil side - told me just go for it .......order that tea ....... you have been good - you deserve it and my good side ( yes do i have one) told me - NOOOOOOO with one hand on hip and the other waving a finger at me - anyways to cut a long story short (  yep that's my short version of the story...) I ordered that tea and surprise surprise .. they decided to walk in on me ... all I could think was effing eff .. eff!!! As they say - caught with my pants down - actually - that's ANOTHER story ;)

Anyways ... so there was a reason why i wanted to write this particular blog  today - mostly my blog is for my cyber world - word diarrhea - or just document how I manage to making a fool of myself - in short just random nick knacks of my RANDOM life. But today I want to show you something ( no peeps - not thaaaat - as I said to some one the other day - you have to be VERY very VERY luck to see that ;). Its been on my mind for a while and its something that will take me one step closer to becoming a rock star  or a prison inmate - it closes off a few employment opportunities for me and comes with its own set of judgements and opinions..... but none the less I did it. I got myself a tattoo.... and if one more person asks me - does it hurt?!!?  ...arrghhhh  i will ... i will ... i dunno actually what i will do. So below is the before and after for your viewing pleasure. And what does the characters mean you ask...... it means " inner strength". Guess I am going to need that strength - inner and outer when I visit India next month cause guyz the things is that I haven't told my parents or my in laws about it ...... so if you hear some major yelling and fireworks from my place - all the way to your part of the world - you will know why ..;)

I am going to leave you with this quote from Don Ed Hardy

"A tattoo is an affirmation: that this body is yours to have and to enjoy while you're here. Nobody else can control what you do with it"
