There I was in my bar trying to study up what cocktail to make for the evening when I hear the following conversation going on upstairs…

Sharmila (yelling): “Nikita, why is your room still in this shape?” (I assume she walked into her room and everything was in sixes and sevens)

Nikita replied, very calmly: “Mom, here is a tip on happiness. Don’t worry about what you cannot control”.

And I was like – “Sit down with me, girl. I don’t need no alcohol to entertain me this evening” 🙂

Remember how, a few weeks back, I had forgotten my shoes and had to come to office in office clothes and bright neon colored running shoes? Well, let the records indicate that I am nothing if not a quick learner. Let the records further stipulate that I learn only one thing at a time. So, while I have not forgotten the shoes ever since, I did forget the socks today 🙁

Black trousers, black shoes and ankle high white print socks it is then!!

… it is “aai-pee-el-u” 🙂

Low Gultage crowds might need some translation by my friends from Hyderabad 🙂
