Aah, Thursday's done! Just one more to go. Wish i didnt live this far from office, the ride is really starting to get to me. 40 kms a day on days i go to the gym, even the petrol pump assistant recognizes me now. At least it has stopped raining. Rains in November, what is the weather coming to? Heh, maybe the weather gods have also had to suffer layoffs. Maybe they outsourced to some developing part of heaven and are now dealing with communication issues. Idiot, at least dont make fun of your own side! I have to admit though, the rains make for a smoother ride. Right. And do you plan on getting those brakes fixed anytime soon? Whats wrong with them? So their output doesnt exactly correspond to the input, but i've gone months without any output from them at all. You think i cant do this? Oh fine. Even if you do say yes now and swear that you mean it, you are never actually going to do it. Like all those times you swear you are going to call up people. Err.. aah post rain is nice. Hey, man crossing the street, hurry up, i dont want to have to break for you. Damn he stopped! Why did he have to stop? He would have made it too. Break, break break. Damn it all, looks like i'm going to fall!
Excuse me. I hate to disturb you, but you do realize you are lying down in the middle of a fairly busy road? Maybe its time to try and get up? Whats the big hurry? I'm pretty sure no one will crash into me and say - woops, didnt quite see you there. I mean, i am lying in the middle of the road. Exactly. Fine, i'll get up. That wasnt so bad. Now for the bike. Shut it off first. Damn it, where are the people who gather around every accident and generally make a nuisance of themselves when you need them? Aah, there comes one. Yes sir, i'd like some help lifting the bike. Oh you can do it without me? Thank you. Yes i'm fine. You could have been a little less cheerful about that fine, you know. Yeah, yeah. I'm off though, arent i? Damn it, this means no gym tomorrow. Aerobics it was too. Nice going. This isnt so bad. Not much pain, i dont seem too disturbed or shaken, think i got away pretty light. OMG, is that a tear in my pant? In my latest if if i were to convert to a religion in which i'd be buried when i died, these are the pants i would want to be buried in pants?? What have you done, you stupid accident??? You might want to stop staring at the tear and lookup
BAM!
Where am i?
P.S. Since i am typing this, obviously at some point during the narrative my imagination divorced reality. But i do have a torn pant and a grazed knee to prove that once upon a time the two were together and very much in love. On the plus side (though nothing can make up for that tear) i got an injection and a dressing! I aint 'fraid o' no shots! I dont actually like them, but not being afraid makes me feel all (there really isnt a better word for this) macho. And dressing. Its my favourite thing about getting hurt. Bandaids, bandages, casts... the bigger the better! Totally makes up for the pain. Except maybe the time i hurt my upper lip while trying out some equipment in the gym and had to walk around with a Charlie Chaplinesque moustache for dressing. Okay fine, i loved that too.

As soon as I started reading ur post, the image of Chaplin's nanny came first in my mind!
Shall I say Get well soon? ;)
The first word I noticed in the title was 'Nova' and I thought you're talking about Heroes :)
it seems to me that there is a buri aatma ka saaya on atn junta..
time to call a mantrik :D
Kaushik: :D
Seriously, i should have thought of some really cool story to go with the cast instead of sticking to the embaressing truth. That i did it to myself with a pair of sissors one cold winter night while trying to open a bottle of [i]parachute nariyal tel[/i].
Sigh. I even miss the winters. I think i got it bad.
Sumit: I knew you'd remember! Thank GOD it happened before the digital camera era.
Yes, you should say get well soon. Believe it or not, i miss the gym.
Mohsin: I'm ashamed to have to ask this, but Nova who?
Oooh, Mantrik! With the peacock feather bunch and all! I likes! Lets make Monday a little interesting.
hehe,
my mistake..it's Noah Bennet..
had to check wikipedia..
(subtitles bhi dnld karne padenge ab :))
you drive w/o brakes...?? n u were safe till now...?? man..!!tats some driving skills...:P
as for the bandage part...tat explains ur excitement on being askd abt the accident..:D
Mohsin: Happened to me too! Was reading some wiki that mentioned Noah Bennet and i wondered who he was! I guess we tend to think of him as the guy with the glasses. He says in "episode" 300 that people usually refer to him as HRM (Horn Rimmed Glasses). I like.
Zaru: Sssssh! Not no brakes, people would break my other leg too if that was the case. Lets call them not entirely efficient brakes.
Yes, the bandage explains my excitement :) Looks like i'm going to get a new one every day, so it only gets better!
okok..nt so efficient brakes...agree on tat ... my brakes r also d same..:)
