18 Days To Qobul (not Kabul) :-)

So its 18 days for us to say 'Qobul'. We had the kick start function on my side last sunday. Called as the path (pronounced as paa-aa-th). Basically which involves the family getting together and offering prayers to almighty. Reciting a a specific verse called 'Sukhmani Sahib'. Followed by langar. Got to meet all my aunts, uncles and cousins. Followed by some Bhangra.
After the path we start to distribute marriage invites in the family by going to everyone's house and giving them a box of sweets along with the card. This whole affair should take 4-5 days and then its Balle-Balle.

Goodness!! Gracious!! Great Balls On Fire!!

Welcome to my paranoia. Welcome to goosebumps. Maybe its the Aaz-o-phobia (Fear of aastha) or Gamophobia (Fear of Marriage). Its out there and its started to divulge itself.

Today morning during my morning tete-a-tete cup of tea with my family. Spilled a cup of steaming hot tea on myself (lower half of the body). Bringing me so closer to the exact feeling of being violated by heat. I was jumping out of my cosy bed in a minute. Freaking whole thigh is red now.

Move to Delhi, Marriage, Dilbert and Other Less Important Things Like Work

Finally back in Delhi. After nearly 2 yrs of traveling. Everyone brings home something guess what did i get - A Wife !! To write this line took 2 weeks of thinking - lol

Does it feel good to be back home?? Hell Yes when there's yum food to eat every day, when there's comfort, when there's no work (unfortunately this lasts for only some jiffies). Back in Delhi - Back to where it all started. With only 2 weeks left to go before i tie the K-N-O-T - my days go by in running from one point to other ferrying relatives who are more excited about my marriage then myself. After all for them its a spectacle.

Vacations start end of December eating the whole of January. Joining back to earn money money a.k.a peanuts February 2008.

Bought Dilbert and the Joy of Work some time back - got time to read it now and introspect and you my friend - Yes you !! - The one who is reading this post is for sure missing something serious if you are not able to feel that you are surrounded by Dilbert character's at work. For some reason I'm contemplating proposing a ban on Dilbert as the more i introspect i feel an uncanny resemblance in my world. Enuf - before i shove my foot deep into my own mouth.

Finally got my cervical issue resolved. The diagnosis - lot of stress actually coagulated the muscles in my cervical area for which a dose of mild anti depressants had to be administered along with drinks, gifts, women - just to give me a stress free life. I'm still skeptical abt the last part.

Few key people would be mailed the invites in the coming week. I you for some reason do not see the invite in your mailbox should understand that you did seriously piss me off after all at some point or the other. lol

I shall keep you updated with my meandering experiences of matrimonial bliss or blasts from time to time.

Sayonara.
