None of you might be wondering about what I have been doing for the past few days. But still I am much obliged to tell you, "nothing much". Well, that's because my bar for 'much' is quite high.
So, let me just clearly and sincerely tell you that I have been :
(1) eating - a lot - my nani (mom's mom) is an excellent cook.
(2) teaching teenagers about torrents and piracy.
(3) sleeping, as if I'm depressed.
(4) watching sunsets and moonsets.
(5) watching frogs trying to eat dung beatles. They are mostly unsuccessful.
(6) sweeping floors.
(7) only using my phone as a connection to the digital world. Androidify!!!
(8) grinding chutney with ancient tools.
(9) setting up mosquito nets (machhardani).
(10) sitting quite, thinking, smiling.
(11) listening to old women and drunk men.
(12) listening to stories. My nana (mom's dad) is an awesome storyteller. His stories used to be about animals and queens and kings and always concluded with a moral. And now they are about life and family and characters and Sikh history and politics and spirituality. And nana's elder brother is even a better storyteller, maybe because all his stories have a bit of masala.
(13) And yeah, staying online forever.
That's about it I guess. And of course writing a blog at this hour and on my phone is also new.
So, see you in the next edition of "who wants to be a-bored." hope you live until then.
*poof* you know the rest.
