Thursday Thoughts...

Having read about murders, demolition drives, hostile witnesses, and wayward politicos this entire week in the newspapers, I was glad to see a pleasant headline.
“Another Indian movie going to the Oscars this year.”

Let’s wait and see whether it fares any better than those that preceded it.

Meanwhile let’s hope for the best.

Was just thinking that the Indian film industry has come a long way indeed.

As one of my colleagues says, "Good job"(in a cross between a Texan and Kansas twang).

I’m been meaning to watch Deepa Mehta’s “Water,” but just haven’t got around to seeing it.

Watched quite a few flicks this month and the last—they were a mixed lot, from the amazing, to bordering on the average, to those that I would have had rather not spent a penny on.

Most of them were at various multiplexes, dotted in the city.

A dwindling bank balance made it essential to keep my expensive diversion at bay – at least till the next month.

Waiting for the Metro to come to the part of the city that I reside in.

Guessing it’s gonna be one long wait.

Visited a Doc yesterday, who’s thankfully not gone OTT with medicines.

Has prescribed a bare minimum—just one, to be exact.

Thank Gawd—I didn’t want to see more of those dreadful vials of bitter-tasting medicines, and strips of capsules, all littered at my place, adding to the already-threatening-to-burst room.

I’m not exactly a pig, but can’t say that I have an OCD for cleanliness (like my roomie, cum best friend).

The weekend’s just around the corner, so I’m visibly animated, in fact, even chirpy.

A contest on Saturday adding to my vigor.

Let’s see how I fare at it.

Good luck to me!
