A Wholesome Weekend

The weekend is over and looks like the Monday blues are here to stay. The MM and OA visited us late Friday evening for some baby-less time and it was very pleasant. We guys managed to stay off the baby chat for the greater part of the evening. P and I were finally happy for some adult company. Not that we don't enjoy our time with T but we need to socialise with adults to remain sane and more importantly to not forget adult language when the usual talk around the house is on the lines of "birdie kaha hai?" (where is the bird?) and maah ko paah kar do.. ( Give mama a kiss).


Saturday was hectic but I got a lot done from the monthly grooming at the saloon to clothes alterations and also a trip to Chandni Chowk with mum to pick some gifts. We went gallivanting around town in the evening after leaving T with Nanu & Nani. We started with kebabs in Defence Colony market then to the new Six Month Story at Chattarpur which was quite sad. Finally we ended up at the old favourite Dublin and danced the night away.

Sunday was supposed to be an outing to the Ethiopian embassy for some authentic food with some friends and P and I were really looking forward to it but the sun played spoilt sport . It was overcast and windy and too cold to take T out and no one was available to babysit. So the day was spent with all three of us huddled in a blanket with the heater on. And we finally caught Om Shanti Om on DVD. I refrain from commenting on the movie. All I can say is that a bunch of smart people made a big joke on the sensibilities of the Indian audience and made a lot of money. We were supposed to attend a wedding in the evening of an ex colleague of mine from HCL which we almost passed due to the weather but then finally went to. And the biggest moment of the day was when my mum who is so hard to please, complimented me on my dressing. So all in all a good weekend.
