Of Push-ups & Let-downs..

I’m in a somber mood this morning. It has nothing to do with the day so far (my boss gets back from her week-long interlude on the fair, sandy beaches of Koh Samui this morning and that’s sooooo great! I’ve missed the daylights out of her!!!) or last night..(..which was incidentally, spent watching Neal’n’Nikki, the flick from hell!) ..but more to do with a call I got this morning. It was from my ex mother-in-law (The prefix does apply to the entire family right??) She’d called about some keys she wanted back or some thing equally mundane so to speak but it was rather unsettling. Got me thinking about how relationships change. Here was this woman who once swore I was the daughter she never had and there we were making small talk about the weather and things. I guess that’s how these things work out. Hey if you marry the whole family when you marry the man it’s only fair that you have a “collective” divorce as well right? Not that I’m soppy or anything, but it’s just sad that relationships you spend so much time and effort developing must depend on intermediating factors completely out of your control! Siiiigh! C’est la vie people..

On a chirpier note I’ve borrowed Friends Season 2, which is such a pleasure to re-see! I mean they’re all younger and fresher looking and that’s the Chandler I absolutely adore..(..not Matthew Perry detoxing from his tryst with alcohol/drug abuse!!) Also I’d write a review of Neal’n’Nikki but frankly it’s not even worth a mention..(..although the lead couple has matching his and hers stretch marks and Uday Chopra has gone absolutely ballistic with the foundation and Tanisha needs to hone her acting skills a little past losing weight and attaining new heights in the variable usage of a push-up bra and …shit!! Stop it Rush!!!!) ..and as I was saying earlier, it’s not even worth mentioning. Heeheheehee!

So that’s all for today folks! Papa Bear Tarun’s coming over for din din this evening so more when it happens..
