Popat!!!

The past month has not been that great. Work has been repetitive and slow. Very good friends have left for some or the other reason. Basically series of events which haven't given me enough time to revive and pull myself together. Events have taken place at lightening speed and I haven't really sat down and written about them. Honestly I din't want to. As always I am waiting for the effects of them to fade till they almost disappear or at least passive enough for me to recall.

But I am ok enough and today especially I am feeling happy. You know the general-no-reason-bas aiveyin sort of happiness. And that is making my head travel from here to there. I am chit chatting and cracking jokes, gratifying my guffaws after long and calling my friend weird names. One of them is Popat. Which is soo soo my favorite! How and why I do not know. But it sounds cool when I say it.

The words magical I tell you. Yesterday a friend from USA called. He couldn't here me as my voice kept breaking and I had to shout into the phone. Ultimately when he did not understand a single word I screamed 'Popatttt sunai nahi de raha kya!' into the phone and he heard it right! He he! Stupick him.

And its not just popat that I use often. It is one of the cute words which I use when I am in a 'good girl mood'. But for all other irritating, angry times, I have a list of adjectives which I gathered over years keeping friends with lunatics, dopers, smugglers and drug-dealers. Hee haw haw.. Kidding! But yeah.. I do have a bad mouth, which turns fouler as tempers rise and voices go higher. It would be treacherous if I spell them here.

I'd rather have someone hear them.. Until next fight, I am enriching myself! Contendors anyone?
