A "Vetti" Post

I did not want to write this post! And why am I doing it? Well, I had nothing worthwhile to do. You see, it is like this. I just put in a dvd for burning and it takes 9 minutes. I was wondering what to do until then. Voila! A post on the blog!

It has been a long time since I blogged. I somehow am not very interested in blogging. You sit and type a whole lot of crap which many people dont even read through completely. And yet, I blog! Why? For the heck of it. "Hey! I have a blog". "I got $10 through google ads on my blog!". Awwww... give me a break!

But, sometimes I get this urge to post. I rack my tiny brain for a topic. Politics, sports(?!), science, religion, philosophy... Oh God! Dilemma! Cant decide on one topic! Because, this is one bad habit our brain has. If you want to decide on a single topic, it would suggest a thousand. When you want a thousand, it wont even get one. By the time I decide on a topic, the feeling would subside. No blog. No brain damage due to excessive thinking. And I live happily ever after until I get that urge again!

I wonder how people... Ah! Burning completed. My job here is finished!

The Chronicles of Arvind - The Dino, The Cheetah and The Noisy

Do dogs have attitude? Yes, they do. Each dog in this world has its own perspective towards human beings. Their attitudes are reflected in the way they look, wag their tail, squeal, bark etc. How do I say this? Well, I have 8+ yrs experience in petting three dogs (no, doesn't include my brother). Noisy, Dino and Cheetah are the VIPs in our home.


Scene: When I come home
Dino: *squeal(happy)* Oh, Dear Arvind. You have come home! I am so happy!! Here, let me lick your face. *lick* *lick*
Cheetah: *wag* *wag*
Noisy: *bark* *bark* who is it? who is it? oh! its only you!!! home so soon? no work at office? you disturbed my sleep!!!


Scene: When I accidentally step on their tails
Dino: eeek! i must have been sitting in the way. im so sorry!
Cheetah: *wag* *wag*
Noisy: You moron! Are you blind? Can't you see i am relaxing. Take that!! *bite* (ankle)


Scene: Taking them for a bath
Dino: *squeal(sad)*. No. Please don't do it. I might get pneumonia. Please... Please...
Cheetah: *wag* *wag*
Noisy: Somebody help! This idiot is trying to drown me to death! Help! *cough* *cough* Oh My God!!! Im drowning! (the bath hasn't started yet!)


Scene: Lunch time
Dino: Yippeee! Food! Yay!!! Jolly!
Cheetah: *wag* *wag*
Noisy: FOOD! FOOD! FOOD! Make it fast! *clang* *clang* (the bowl)


Scene: When I am eating
Dino: Looks delicious. Can I have an itsy bitsy teenie weenie piece, please?
Cheetah: *wag* *wag*
Noisy: *growl* if you dont give me that, i will have to take it myself by force. and you will regret it.

Scene: Gone for a walk
Dino: *blink* *blink* Can we go home please?
Cheetah: *wag* *wag*
Noisy: *sniff* *sniff* This dried lump of cow dung smells great! *bark* That kid on the cycle, lets chase him. *scram* let's go to Taurus's house, he is so sexy! *sigh*


Now, what do you infer?

Dino: An Angel. Most lovable Dalmation

Cheetah:Dumb! Only next to George Bush(he can't do the wag wag thingy). A black sheep in the Dalmatian species.

Noisy: A perfect "bajaari". A true mongrel!

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday to me! Today's my birthday and look at me! Not able to open my mouth and speak even the bare minimum words. Sometimes I had to do a Sunday 1'o clock DD News act to my mom! My dumb charades skill does help! Siru thurumbum pal kutha udhavum.

I had a dental surgery last night. Had to get a tooth extracted, which had been troubling me for more than a year. I tried to postpone it as much as possible. Not because I was scared. I was very lazy to go to the Dentist. His clinic is quite far from my place.

But finally I succumbed to my tooth. I headed to the clinic. My dentist was a good guy. He did not start poking insruments right away. He said my tooth was looking bad and cannot be repaired in a single sitting. He said I had to come for three sittings(??!!). I am now his weekend patient. I gotta work on weekdays. Three weekends will be lost in my life! Yesterday was the first sitting. He explained me the process of what he will do in my mouth and what I should do when he is drilling, pushing and pulling at the tooth. After half an hour's struggle he got the tooth out. He gave it to me wrapped in swab of cotton. I did not know how to react. I was holding a piece of me! I proudly displayed it to my mom when I came home. She gave expression of horror and disgust. So I quickly hid it and I plan to preserve it! Tooth fairy, where are you?

Long time no blog! (Again!)
