Well, I have been dying to share this with everyone I know....this weekend was the bestest!!!!! and obviously so, since it was spent at The Courtyard by Marriot, nothing less!! LOL. Well, lemme tell you guys, how it all happened......no, my hubby didnt fall in love with me again and decide to celebrate it here....but he definitely gave me a fabulous surprise.....:), it so happens that his company patronises The Marriot so often that they decided it was time to appropriately thank the person responsible for so much cheer....R;and thats how me, Dooby and R landed up at The Marriot, chauffeur driven on Saturday afternoon and life was simply groovy till Sunday evening :) We were courteously checked in to a simply lovely room and told to simply chill out till 4pm, which is when they were going to take us, with another 19 families on a guided tour of their property. This was an exercise on their part to familiarise their customers with the front and more importantly, the back of the hotel;th...

So Dooby loves the concept of explaining the size of things by categorizing them into mummy, daddy, sister and baby (oh, ya according to the size of her family, LOL , ofcourse , shes going by height, if she went by width, Mummy would be biggest, LOL ), but guess what, even her Potty is not spared from size description.... theres mummy potty, baby potty....you get the drift, Yeck !!!! Today, she said, Mummy you must come tomorrow in Saree and drop me to school, talk about being fashion conscious at this tender age!!!! Tch , tch , today's consumerist kids!!!

On a different note, I am going to sue all the kiddy channels, you take so much effort to get the kid to give up her ego and eat humble pie and then ...

For starters, if at all anybody ever reads this blog, :)for their info, Dooby is my daughter's pet name, dont ask why, she is actually called Meghana, but my mom kept this silly name when she was a tiny tot and it just somehow stuck! To come back to the the point, me thinks, girls will always be dippy on their Dads:) ( exception: me and my sis) To establish this point, let me tell you what happened this morning;as usual, the mad morning rush was in full swing, me running helter skelter from one room to the other, well nowadays the "running" has reduced to an ugly waddle(thanks to being 7 months preggie), R languidly(as usual, such a contrast to my behaviour), lighting up a fag;Dooby was picking out her shoes to wear; she has a shoe fetish, like her Dad, has a mini shoe shop, but wont tire of buying a few more, at the first chance. She took out yet another "pink" pair (she has a fixation with that colour these days, the way shes going, she will want her hair to ...
