Home sweet home

Our rented place in Alwarpet is quite nice. I have most of things that I love at stone thowing distance. The music sabhas, coffee world , gym et.al . The Fitness one centre near my house draws a lot of celebrities . It is nice to see Sanjay subramanyam and Sudha raghunathan frequent the health club.I guess it does not hurt to keep those lungs healthy if you are a Carnatic vocalist.

The wedding was a pretty fun affair especially the cocktails arranged by Missus' folks. Some of my close high school friends and grad school colleagues attended the function to make it memorable. The coimbatore reception was well attended too.My high school principal, hindi teacher, neighbours from chidhoood were there to wish us. That's when it struck me that a well attended wedding is like a potrait that stays in your memory forever.

Missus has been having a hectic time at work. Even my workload has gone up quite a bit after the wedding. I have started driving regularly in Chennai. Needless to stay scratched the car once already trying to park in our narrow parking lot. Damn why don't we have more space in cities , driving in the US used to be so easy. And Yes the biriyani at the Park hotel is simply superr!!

The highlights of the concert were the 'Thodi' kirthanai ,the meera bhajan and the tukaram abhang in that order. I thought the crowd lacked discipline , quite few cell phones ringing and people leaving the concert before the mangalam piece. My dad told me about the mylapore 'mess'(mess= restaurant) culture. We went to Mylai mess that was opposite to the B.V.B hall for dinner. The place has hardly been renovated and maintains its old legacy even today. The menu card is also very typical of the Madras tiffin culture . I had Badam halwa , Kichadi and podi dosai for dinner. As usual I must elate... it was Yummm!!! Not the most cleanest place but yes i felt the place has preserved its soul :-).The

Covid 19 and Work from Home

Its been 4 years since I wrote a line here. 2020 has been mostly peeping out of my window in Bangalore and nothing much!  I feel the urge to change- shake it up a lot these days. The mind tells me I haven't found what I am looking for... Discovered Chris Martin and Cold play :-) Yaay! Feels like the real life starts after 40. The optimism and adventure of younger days  have given way to accepting life's realities
