If only...

...Am in one of those "If only" moods today....!

Very dangereous this type of mood is...all great discoveries and inventions were started with these two words...Imagine where would we be today if the Einstein's and Galileo's of the world had'nt been in this mood-If only The world had ligth at night, If only I knew whats making the apple fall down..etc etc!

And yes I have a huge list of if onlies.. what are my If Onlyies...for the day??...Here goes the list.. If only...

.... I did'nt have to work but get paid as much ....
I had a chocolate house where I could get up in the morning and eat the bathroom tap!(Hint!Hint!) :-):-) ....
Mommy could be with me everytime I wanted a hug and pampering and nice food and then go back to bombay everytime I need to party late;-) ....
I did'nt have to wax, or do my eyebrows, underarms(ouch!!..that one's bad!!)...:-( ....
On the first of every month I got up in the morning and Voila! ...had a new hairstyle! .....
God had'nt made something called Milk--Yuukkk!(thank god for bournvita!) .....
There was real santa claus .....
I had a candy floss machine at home...yummmm:-) .....
I was big enough to ride a enfield bullet:-( .....
All my good friends were always with me...in the same city.....
Everyday would be "Ekta Pampering day"(Hint!!Hint!!) .....
God granted me a new wish everytime I sulked:-)

If only...if only...time would stop...! or maybe not!!...

Would like to have a fresh list of If onlyies tomorrow:-)

I wrote a poem the other day on my blog that deals with being grateful for what we have.. "Another Tree Has Fallen" ... although... I'm just like you... I wish... I had an ATM machine with an endless supply of money!!! ;)

@Anand: before marriage a man "yearns" for a woman, after marriage the "y" becomes silent!

@Anand: May be you shud give in to the fact that, "A happy marriage is a matter of give and take; the husband gives and the wife takes."

Oh and I had a dream abt ekta being here - beating my black 'n blue. I wish you hadn't bought her those sandals :P

=)) hehehe

@ Ashish : With you dude! Glad that you can empathise! :-))))))

@ The Wife : Please don't let me sleep on the couch today. I need a good night's sleep after all the dreams that I'm having!

Hey Ektaji jokes apart I'm flattered :)
The pleasure is all mine :)

Hello. I can't much about most of your 'if only's'. But i can say something about point 9, and i'll have to contradict your husband.

Bullets are easy to ride. I certainly wasn't big enough when i started riding one (though i am now, i assure all you ladies out there)

Hell, you dont have to be big to ride any bike... except its a little harder to put both feet on the ground. Look at superbikes, all the grand prix champs are little men.

And i knew some small ladies that rode the bull incredibly well. I miss mine now.

 
At 2:50 PM, Blogger 4wD said...

oh and also, i tagged you back

Keshi.

Shikha:- Done!:-)

Ashish:- Well well well..must say ur gf is doing a fab job!...pls tell her me is fully impressed with her efforts and well dont worry with her efforts u wont remain kuwara for too long!
Humara aashirwad tumhare saath hai bacche!

4wd:- hey I have driven a bike on a couple of occasions-of cours ewith some sitting behind me to guide me and wasnt that bad--though the bullet does seem a little too heavy for me...but someday shall try it!
and hey...puhhllless no tag for me...! and hey u cant ask Questions in tags...thats a cheater tag..not allowed!

Casa:- sigh!...the story of being a women!

Me:- :-))

Keshi:- Am glad u agree...and hey why dont ya give him a cute smile...am sure he'll run over to talk to u:)

Since you don't own a bull, the best place to learn to ride one is goa :)

and there are no such things as tag rules:P

 
At 1:53 PM, Blogger Khushi said...

no late parties in mumbai any more... :((( baring a couple of places...
bang at half past one, the bloody cops walk into the pubs wielding their batons, even as the waiters pour your drinks into plastic cups, thrust it into your hands and shoo you...
pretty sad, insulting
