Look who's back

I haven't blogged in 50,000 years or atleast thats what it feels like. Anyway don't want to make a dramatic entry and say " so much time has gone by, I got married, had two kids, time to send them to school ......"

But yes somethings happened, I started anchoring on my channel.... ahem ahem...felt very pleased and sometimes highly embarassed of myself. Like there was this time when I had to say " and if you have just joined us , here is a quick look at the headlines we've been following"
Yours truly has a " stuck-on-a-word problem..... so first I said " and for those of you shooshoobhsoo....hahaha got stuck there thrice...and then when i finally got over that I went ahead and said " and for those of you who have just joined us lets look at the recap"... uhh ummm recap of what dahling..? my panel producer, rundown producer, TD etc were all very sweet but this one was too funny.... so we all cracked up.

Then there was this time when the mop on my head decided to have a life of its own. So no matter how much time I spent straightening and styling and gelling and blowdrying my hair they'd some how manage to look messy on air.

Cousin swati is here on a medical visit. some laproscopy thing to be done. By a very punjoo stylish doc who if was not a doc would make such a la di da socialite.....
But swati was here on saturday with an agenda .... not to meet her doc, not to feel nervous (first surgery after all) not anything... but to shop.... and she managed to wander in the streets of Delhi even with that dendroid in her ab. Some of us are like that only.
Saw some really old pictures at SS of the whole family and boy do they look different or what.... felt sad as I flipped through each one. Felt like time just passed by so soon, in so many ways I still rack my brains for one odd memory or the other in each of those pictures.... but what struck me like a darned rod was the fact that our parents dressed us up most hideously...of course they are nice people, mean well, got the best for us... but dirty brown and tight shorts and tee shirt also of the same colour ..... never mind!
Will try to be more regular with this blogging business now...
