blessed wirelessed

Well, my laptop has a wireless internet connection. Our home network is also wireless. The laptop also has wireless bluetooth, that i use to connect wirelessly to my cellphone; which if i might add is already a wireless peoples' communication device.
My camera is wireless enabled and i can download whatever i shott effortlessly 'wirelessly'. I have a bluetooth headset that i use to connect to my cellphone and attend to call wirelessly using a wireless cellphone.
Oh Well. The new life.

And this is Sunday afternoon effort!
It was even yummier than what it seems to be in the pic.

calf muscle!

I had this strain in my left leg out of soccer football last Saturday. Kept ignoring it as even the right leg was no better till yesterday, when i could not support me on my left leg! It felt that my promising soccer career was ended even before it started. Spoke to Shalini mami. Went to the 'Ultra Care' doc. He diagnosed me as having a 'calf muscle' injury. Although that din't cure me of my pain, but it made me feel better. :) Now i had a name to my pain. So now when people ask me that why am i walking lame, i could say - Man! I am in pain. I have a calf muscle injury...
He He!
For those of you who are concerned, it's really not that serious. Doc asked me to put an ice-pack on it and it should be okay in no time.

ashtami

!!!!!!
We cooked kale chane, suji halwa, poori and boondi raita. And all food was good! Everybody was doing something. While Chopra cooked the chane, i made the halwa and prepared the flour for the pooris. Then while chopra was working on the raita, sudheer, me and sandy were making the pooris.
We shot a video of the preparation and ofcourse a round of interview about the entire thing. It was fun :o) Ate to the brim and fell sleepy like hell! Ofcourse i could not wait to write all if it here...so am still awake!

Another philosophy -
there are kinds of men who ask too many questions. They will take your opinion even if does not mean anything to them. When you come to measure all of this, it's actually quite easy to handle these people. Keep your cool. And say no to everything ;) deny everything! Their response would be ofcourse - ask another question. Deny Again! that's the simplest thing to do to get rid of 'em.

I bought new speakers to connect with my laptop. Bought the Creative P5800 5.1 speaker system. Amazing bass! It's as if the woofer is pumping air to the music...You have hear and feel it to belive it :)

Hmmm i could not believe India would loose so tamely to the Pakis! 144!!! For God's sake!

many meetings

mom had a minor operation last week. She is doing good. I hope she is not "recovering", cause i also hope there was nothing much wrong with her to recover from! And if you are reading this, then there is a message from your family - take care of yourself.
now i'm gonna give a reply to what i think will be her answers :o)
1. Yes, we will take care of each other. but you should do that for yourself too!
2. No. it's not enuf that i said this. you have to do it.

Chevrolet Sebring

The Chevrolet Sebring! I rented this out over the weekend. Big Powerful car, powerful cooling :) meri sadiyon ki icha poori kar di.


Went to meet my cousin in Akron, OH. He is working as a financial analyst there. Ummm....am trying to remember the company he works for...just can't!! Seems to be a nice guy. Even though he was down with headache and a bad cough n cold, we had a pretty okay time. Went for an Indian lunch as well in the brief time i stayed at his place. Saw a movie - National treasure *ing Nicholas Cage. Watch it, you have my word :)
Baith ke gappe maare hum logo ne saara din.
He took me to the univ of akron campus. huge place. was the first time i visited any univ campus actually. and i liked it.

driving alone for those 450 odd miles took it's toll. i had a headache! But all is fine now. Atleast being alone this once, i'll never be afraid to drive alone again. Although some company sitting next to you does help! A navigator is requried [;)]
