Men are from Earth. Women are from Earth. Deal with it


Happy Valentines day people :) Such a hyped day for people in love !!! Why???
One of my closest friend said something today and made me think about it -"If you love someone you say it, you say it right then, out loud. Otherwise the moment just ... passes you by... " If you say you love someone , right then , out loud , everyday becomes a Valentine's day :)". Now ain't that the truth. Thanks Priya :)

Everybody was asking me about my plans for the day and here I sit with henna in my hair bored to death, jobless and almost 6 months pregnant, planning the event for the evening. I love cooking and all I can think of is food these days so I am thinking of a nice romantic dinner without candles (our smoke detector doesn't like candles :) ). Amidst of these thoughts I drifted back to my first date ...was it a date I am not even sure of it right now. Anyways we went for a movie "MASTI"-everybody who watches Bollywood movies knows what this movie is all about :) then I ended up in a hospital for couple of hours due to difficulty in breathing. No, I did not hyperventilate 'cos of the movie. I just sat on the hospital bed thinking, "Oh God! why now? These goes my chances of befriending this guy (romance just flew out of the window)".
But to my surprise I am married to that guy :) and he has turned out to be a perfect husband.

I am always surprised by the choices of movies that we made - when we started dating and the first movie that we saw post marriage. "Life in a Metro"- story about infidel spouses living in a metropolitan city, working in call centers. I mean com'on how could we !!! But thankfully those movies come with a disclaimer that its an act of fiction without any real life people involved in it.

Now, lets come back to present....morning started with a small heartshaped card that I hid in his overcoat and I loved the expression on his face when he found it. I know every married woman says that she is the luckiest wife ever and its so true that we as wives are indeed lucky - It's so great to find that one special person you want to annoy for the rest of your life. ~Rita Rudner. I agree with her so much. I am off to prepare the wonderful dinner for my valentine (Anand) and wish everybody out there who is in love and who is not in love that - Men are from Earth. Women are from Earth. Deal with it. -- George Carlin
