Its hasn't been a very happy day for me. I was woken up by scores of mosquitoes feeding on my blood, very early in the morning. By the time I managed to get a handful of them (squished in my palms...an act done without the aid of any light), and was almost dlipping into deep sleep, my alarm clock woke me up. It was time to get ready for office. And then my left eye started fluttering. Which is a bad omen in these parts of the world.
By the time I reached office, I concluded that my left eyelid has a multiple personality disorder. Sometimes it thinks its a bird. Madly fluttering, it had already invited some scornful stares from a couple of girls in the bus who took no time to jump to the conclusion that I was winking at them.
The bus chugged into the office gates and I made my quick exit to save myself from being slapped. Then came the a rather dull day at work. Which, is nothing usual but for the past few days I made sure that my day was'nt dull. But today was different. My fingers, as well as my mind seemed filled with lead. The only thing that kept my grey cells active was the Test Match between India and South Africa. India came back strongly today but it was Amla who kept threatning to steal away the win from India. He just stood there playing everything which was thrown at him as if he had vowed to not get out...and he kept his vow. The rest of his team mates fell. Harbhajan gave India the win, much deserved and hard fought.
And India's win is just about the only good thing that has happened to me today. Rest of it has been cursed by my fluttering MPD-inflicted eye.
Its seven in the evening and the freaking thing is still fluttering.
