So thirty two it is. Wow! That’s old. Damn! That’s old
Ah, and some year thirty one has been. Quite a
roller-coaster ride I must say; with a bagful of complex emotions; as complex
as The Judge Harry Pregerson Interchange, LA.
But all in all, it’s been a fun year
There has been a lot of learning, and honing myself; a great
deal of writing, and writing well. I read new books; amazing authors that changed
the way I thought. I realised there is so much more to read and so much I was
missing out on. I sew like a thorough seamstress and made some adorable stuff;
started on with three awesome quilts and will finish them early this year.
I made new friends and they did bring about change in my
life – for the better.
I took risks; I indulged in madness; and I loved it.
I fell in love – with the semicolon.
Yes, I did add on to my ‘already heavy’ weight last year. I
tried, I really tried hard to diet, walk, run, gym, swim, yoga and sex, but
none of it worked. I will do it all with double the effort and dedication this
year. I swear. I have to; that’s the only hindrance now when I look at myself
in the mirror. Yeah baby, I see no tale-tell lines around my eyes. That does
make me happy.
I was also great in managing my temper this year. I need to
get awarded with the patience I showed. I didn’t fret over little things. They
were not really little when I come to think of it now. I rocked.
Thirty two sounds like it’s going to be a great year too; a
year full of fun and mischief; a year with loads to read, better writing, and
tons of sewing.
I also wish it to be a more serene, settled and simple year.
Yes, please do learn to drive the car this year.
Many, many returns of the day so that one day you will really feel OLD and be happier too.

DeleteHappy birthday, Diptee. I'm happy that your age has finally caught up with the number of teeth you have.
ReplyDeleteI so wish you fall in love with the Oxford comma as well.
Thank you, Abhishek. Yeah will try dating the Oxford comma a few times before falling in love. Semi-colon may not like it though.
