Workaholism....went and flew a kite for the day!

It's one of those type of days which will make my mother shudder and would have seemed blasphemous to me say about three weeks ago!

Let's just say the only consolation for me is that I have a partner in crime :)

Waking up at three in the afternoon....


Lazing in bed till four.
Finally dragging our lazy ass and pricey tastebuds to KFC where we gleefully splurged and hogged....
Dilly dallied another half an hour after the meal deciding where to go next. (Returning to an utterly dead campus with hardly a living soul in sight not being a very attractive option. Besides the weather was too damn sexy to get back to ghostland)
Voila!
Landmark!!! The most amazing place to while away hours and hours and hours.......of time! :D
Off we went and did just that! :)
But not being the clones of Mutterer and Crusher ;) we were done with the book temple in about three hours.
Then what?
SPLASH!!! The extremely overpriced and a little snotty store.....an amazing chance to window shop to our hearts content. 
And that's excatly what we did. 
Not for long
Only till the shop lights started going out and it was closing time.
Two frankies and a glass of fizzy black crap each, one auto and off we went, zipping across the empty roads of the ungainly sprawled out city...back home!
Truly a day remarkably spent!
[Approximately three weeks ago I would have sprung for "wasted" instead of "spent"....
A remarkable change indeed!!!]

Pretty Things

Ok...I love flowers!

Yeah...fine I am what the standard mould for tom boy reckons...and I think melting love for flowers is a trifle....ahem...unusual!

But...what the hell!

Gerberas and sweet williams are lovely reminders of my garden back at the rambling bungalow at Durgapur. In spite of the garden being filled with a variety of seasonal flowers these two lit up the patio like no other flower could!

Cymbidium orchid, ranunculus, calla lillies and carnations are my favorite flowers and don't ask me why!!!

Shyaah!

Some people should learn the importance of gifting flowers!

Hues of gray and wetness all around...loving it :)

The fine curtain of drizzle seems incessant at this moment.

At the tail end of the month Hyderabad is in the throes of a weather depression.

Now the weather is like a soft lullaby...

It's lovely.

It's the kind of day that makes one feel lazy and lethargic and very contented with life...

As for me I wish the temperature goes down by 10-12 degrees...

A chance to snuggle into a light sweater...curl my toes in my socks...have a book in hand coupled with a mug of steaming filter coffee....and let my fecund imagination take flight as the steady drip-drip outside my window adds a soft music to the cozy silence around me.....

For now.... I rejoice in the blessedness around.

A new beginning...

This blog is my rebirth. A solemn promise to myself and the readers that I will henceforth avoid painful mush (Like "carmine carnation"...Jesus!)thereby retaining a large chunk of respect that I have for myself! ;)

Also a blog where I WILL let my pictures rather than my words do most of the talking :)

Good luck to me!
