frozen moments

It was like a graphic clipping from some hollywood movie. I was rooted to the ground and everything around me started circulating around me. The feeling passed over me for probably a fraction of second but it was like a life time. breath stopped, my mind just went blank and words lost and ...... It was a big news about an arrival of a new small life.
It was a call from my dad from port blair " its a baby girl" and the world changed. wow. Its almost 5 hours since i heard the news but I am yet to come out of that wonderful feeling bubling in every inch of the body called happiness.
I have heard the best and the worst of news but this one .....nothing of this kind ever before. This was one big news we were all waiting for quite some time and when it came ... even words are not sufficient to express it... Probably today i will end up with an unfisnihed blog. thank you.

Ants also take revenge

Its been long time since I wrote some thing , but after what I have gone thru i just could not resist my temptation to write about it. It all started on a thursday morning as usual I woke up and opened the door and picked up my milk sachets and lit the gas to make tea. Tea was ready and i opened the sugar jar and to my deep dismay i found an ant colony in it. Over night like the bollywood movie goons who make settlements from thin air in unclaimed properties to grab it , the same way I found thousands of ants marching up and down inside the jar with the kind of familiairty as if they have been living their for the last 100 generations. I did a small survey in and around the jar and found that they have created a long trail longer than the jammu srinagar highway passing thru every nook and corner of the kitchen.
The very thought of drinking tea without sugar made me so angry that i decided to teach those ants a lesson. I pulled out the HIT spray and lavishly sprayed on all those places where i thought ants can get into.
1 day later
Saturday i washed all my clothes

2 days later
I woke up on sunday afternoon after a long deep sleep. I had planned to go out with friends for a long drive to mahabs and chill out. I cooked a small breakfast and got under the shower to refresh my cells and mood. shower over, pooja over and i pulled out my jeans and a comfirtable cotton shirt and my chaddi. since my cell phone was ringing endlessly i picked it up and started chatting and at the same time i got dressed and in a hurry i pulled on one by one and tucked in my shirt and then suddenly there was a sharp pain as if something has bitten in my thighs and then in all wrong places like mad. I immediately pulled down my pants and my chaddi and there i see hundreds of ants waiting for their turn to bite me. I threw that in the bucket full of water and got under the shower again to get rid of those lousy creatures and came out of the shower. this time i was very careful and to my surprise i found that ants were there in every piece of my inner gears and not a single one in any of my other clothes washed in the same lot.
all of a sudden i remembered the thursday morning when i killed thousands of ants and i realized the gorrilla attack was a revenge for that. God almighty save me and my important organs from the wrath of ants. amen
