Pollsters

USA Today headline (online): “Poll finds Mormons excited about Romney”. Wow! I think that poll further revealed that the earth is round, we get hungry when we do not eat and pollsters should be looking for a real job πŸ™‚

Niki’s husband

This morning, as I left for office dragging my overnighter with me, Niki asked Sharmila “where is Daddy going?” Sharmila explained that after office I will fly to DC but will be back tomorrow. Nikita felt that was a lot of effort for just one day (I guess she thinks all flights are as onerous as her trips to India πŸ™‚ ). Anyways, Sharmila explained that sometimes you have to work very hard at your job. Nikita thought for a second and as she walked away, explained to her sleepover friend Kylie “See, when I grow up, I am not doing any such thing. I will let the husband do all the hard work” πŸ™‚Β 
Let the record show that her mom side genes are dominant πŸ™‚Β β€” atΒ Delta Skyclub ATL terminal B.

Implants

“Passenger’s implant claim diverts fight” reports CNN and USA Today. And I am thinking if those are the TSA standards now, no flight will ever be allowed to take off from Hollywood πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

Jobless G8

USA Today reports “G-8 leaders agree to promote economic growth”. I have a question – As opposed to what? Did they really have to carefully evaluate the alternate option of NOT promoting economic growth?

Sister calling…

Rich Irony: My sister from a small town in Eastern India called me up in the middle of my office meetings (it is near midnight for her) because she is stuck with a question while teaching her fourth grader for next day tests – Which is Rajasthan’s Blue City? Not that I am an expert on Rajasthan – and she is acutely aware of it. But unlike her, I can access the internet in a second!!!! And that is exactly how I found out the answer πŸ™‚ (she won’t buy my claims that I knew it anyways πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ )

Niki vs Siri

It was barely 5:30 am and I was enjoying my coffee watching the rain when Nikita walks down the staircase from her bedroom, my iPhone in her hand, complaining “Siri is mean”! Apparently, first thing in the morning, she asked her “Am I awesome” and Siri politely answered “I cannot answer that” πŸ™‚ And with that, we are off to a flying start to this Sunday!!

Mother’s day!

Usual Sunday watering hole with Sharmila for Mother’s Day dinner. Instead of fancy tables, we decided to sit at our usual bar chairs chatting with the staff. So far, one guy fell and cracked his head (paramedics and fire engine here), one table had a proposal (successful) and one table had a candle overturned on the tablecloth!!! πŸ™‚ To think, I was the one who over drank tonight πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚
