Sunday's are meant to be lazy. After all, God wanted it to be like that! I had a really hectic week though. There's a big release at work tomorrow which had me busy almost all through October. I had to go to the office yesterday too to finish things up. Anyways, it looks like we would be able to make the release tomorrow, unless Murphy's Law decides against it.
I had a much needed haircut yesterday. Dad kinda forced me to have one. I was planning to grow my hair long at least till December, for the GIR festival.
Anyways...the day began pretty late, at about 9 am. I had a nice li'l breakfast and lazed around a bit watching TV. The house is still getting painted, and the workers came in to polish the furniture and to do some final touches. Getting the house painted is a pretty irritating affair. Unlike many ppl, paint fumes aren't the worst part for me..its the cleaning up after, which sucks real bad. I am pretty used to paint fumes now...in fact kinda addicted to them too (as scary as that sounds!). Anyways, I despise cleaning up. I mean firstly, you collect all the existing trash in your room..and once they paint and stuff, you try and figure out how to put them back again! And I swear nothing is thrown away in my home. We are the conservationists! Every time I go like "Lets throw this out!", out comes a li'l story or an anecdote which literally makes us keep it. There was this calculator in the showcase in the living room. It was red and had a panda over it which had "Join the party" written over it. It was a kiddie calculator. I was like.."it doesn't even work..lets discard it!". Thats when Dad started telling the story of how when you opened the flap, there was music and how it cracked us (me and bro) up when we were li'l kids. Needless to say, its still sitting right there. We wanted to clean up the entire showcase, but ended up with almost everything that we had..except for the things dad broke while cleaning up!
Anyways, after lunch, we had to go shopping...the other thing which I really hate to do (unless its for food or video games). Its my bro's marriage on the 18th and I hadn't gotten anything for myself. I had to sacrifice my precious afternoon siesta for it. I ended up getting 3 shirts, a suit and a pant. Back home, I played Modern Warfare 2 for a while before dinner. Dinner was good today. There was an awesome Chicken biryani and mutton fry. We also managed to eke in some nice "Bacardi time" in between while straightening things out after the painters left. All in all a nice day. Hopefully, tomorrow's kind to me and things work out fine at the office.
