What should/could have I said?

Okay! So here is the deal...

Whenever I play the vanish act on you, I always try to come up with a good enough excuse. But let's face it - I am human and I get caught up with life too. So moving on... Let me tell you the highlight of this weekend (Yes, I know you are dying to know that lol)

IKEA - Yes, I am talking about the furniture store! I have been wanting to get done with furnishing my apartment, but three months into my lease, I still don't have some basics. So This Saturday, I decided to make a quick trip to Ikea. Drove three hours to get there, spent about four complete hours deciding what to buy, what color, quantity, size etc etc. And got all excited that finally I can come back home to a cosy, nicely furnished apartment - only to find out that the stuff that I wanted was out of stock! W.H.A.T??

So to relieve the heartache, we decided to eat at a (supposedly) nice Indian restaurant - Mayoori. But the food disappointed me even more. So we decied to call it a night and just drive back to Norman. Some weird sequence of events happened - GPS went out of charge, our phones died, and we were super sleepy. Somehow kept ourselves awake - coffee always does the trick :)

Reached home at about two in the morning. Crashed!!

GPS updated!

Blogging from Kansas City for next four days...

Check out my travel blog (GPS) for updates

There were two of them - I really liked one, the other one was not so bad either. But the problem was that everyone else also liked the one I liked. Since the one I liked was so much in demand and was unavailable, the other one was sent over. And I had to tell them "I want the couch I like!"

Weekly update - I know you were waiting!

Looks like I am officially color blind now! Isn't what you call people who buy blue stockings thinking its black? Worse, they don't see it, until they put it on with a black skirt and shoes and go to work.

So men like to talk about shoes and watches too. Really! I served as an amused audience this morning to an hour long (well almost) conversation about which watch looks good on whose wrist and why. And don't forget the talk about prices and designers.

Question: Shirt, straight plaid woolen skirt, tights and boots - why do I feel that I am looking like a school girl? Is this my fear of aging? OMG! Some one said it looked hot ;) but I am not too good at sensing sarcasm.

Something that's common between all the human beings - we all commit mistakes, most of us regret and some of us just forget 'em with time and repeat 'em! Which category do you fall in?

8 glasses of water a day = 800 trips to the bathroom!

Story of the week:
What do you call people who have the keys, and still get locked out of their house? Why do I ask you say. Cz that's what my name will be after what happened last night. After trying hard, walking around in the cold trying to find out what to do, I finally caught hold of a stranger in the laundry room and asked for help. Obviously it was hard to find a human soul on the road when it was 30F (which by the way is -1C) outside!
Why did I not 'call' for help? I would if I had my phone on me. I forgot it at work! Yes! I survived more than twelve hours without any modeof technical communication (Is that even a term?)
