smitten

i've been to bombay several times. mostly fleeting visits, and mostly memories of traffic, airports, a relentless mugginess and a feeling of relief on leaving. there was something different about bombay this time. maybe it was the surprising chill in the air, or maybe it was the all-round warmth of the people around me. loved it, and wished i had stayed longer.

first shots

blurry, murky, random shots. but still, a start.

speed of thought

just hopped from the world's narrowest house to claustrophobia to amygdala to gray's anatomy to... wait a minute, is that where they got that show's name?


if i don't watch it, the twitter-wiki-google consortium will most definitely gobble half my lifetime. and yours.

warped schedule

an aunty just walked in on me stuffing my face around noon. and she went "inta late aa breakfast!"

happy tashreefs

i'm mystified by all the italian furniture stores that have sprung up in hyderabad. a while ago, an aunty reported walking into one of them and leaving in a horrified hurry on getting quoted 15 lakhs for a couch. i figured that would be the end of the italian experiment, but what did i know. they dot every major road in the banjara-jubilee area. who buys this stuff? are their tashreefs delighted?
