Started the IB WSL application and fidgeted my way through the nonsensical requirements. Mindfulness...my foot! How can one be mindful when one is expected to do absolutely mindless paperwork!?! One of those days I want to rule the world and put it all back in order!
See my boss back at work and ask him how he is placed in the evening. I owe him a dinner after putting him through the mess of finding a printer, signing and scanning my application- all during his holiday. Nasty me! Anyway, he is free for dinner. So I ask Rach and G.
I get a message from Pritika if I want to join her for a pork chop and bacon dinner! Yum! But I have my invite sent. I ask her to come over and she sends me a message full of despair....she has also invited other friends. Ah well.. Hakuna Matata!
I start my tedious job of sending the documentation over. The files are huge and wetransfer takes forever! In the meantime, I flirt around with emojis and words on whatsapp. :)
Naughtiness always makes one feel alive! A necessary ingredient to keep the spark alive and life feel all sparkly! Being cheeky helps as much, esp when you know that the friend on the other end will continue to humour you.
Home is a haven of beautiful cooking smells and a cup of ginger tea. I taste the food, refine, cook more, dance and wonder about the way forward. Disorientation beckons but I firmly ignore the call! Que serra serra!
Soon the home is filled with happy conversations. Rach-Gautam-Rob- Pritika (she has made it after packing off her guests with an early dinner!) - Micky and I start on a sober note....... and a wine bottle and some cans of beer later, the conversation turns to a mindless fit of giggles, jokes, banter, nonsensical fight-lets (not full fledged, hence the fightlets!) and volumes of laughter. No one is spared! All of us feel happy.
Not certain if Saturday eve will be as full of giggles.. but very sure that it'll be equally full of happiness. Thank God for friends! Love 'em!
