Radio kharab hai...

And just when I thought I could eat tonnes and tonnes of food without the slightest worry of gaining weight, I was proven wrong.
You know, there are many reasons why one should avoid eating good food.
-it is a bad thing to get used to (apart from mom, tea, liquour-type things and sleeping pills). phir jab achcha khana nahi milta to dil mein aur pet mein, donon jagah barabar dard hota hai.
-you have to spend more on new clothes as your older ones start to become too tight for your expanding girth. Not only that, the new clothes have to cover more surface area and hence they are costlier. However, that logic definitely does not apply to girls on screen, otherwise the Mallikas of the world would get their clothes for free (or almost, same difference!).
-morning walks are not a reliable means to tackle this heavy menace. On the day of your first morning walk, you sing 'jhoom barabar jhoom' in your office after lunch. And organize a labour strike asking a siesta break of 1 hour post lunch. On the second day, you decide to sleep a little longer in the morning(and everyone knows what that means!)
-you turn around to see who is following you and it turns out that it was your bum which, like the Hutch wala kutta, follows wherever you go
-a few seconds before you reach a place, you pot belly is already there.
-tying the knots of your own shoes will become impossible. And a lot of other aspects of your life will be affected beyond repair. Ab details mat poochna.
-you will become the favorite target of bhookhe bhediye machchars who will suck all the blood, for which you had to do the mehnat of eating and chewing. These machchars, the have such a easy, albeit somewhat short and snappy, life. Hai na?

But before all these nightmares haunt me, let me have my mouthful of sohanpapdis and all the sweet desi ghee filled sweets. Its such an irony, all the most desirable things come with disclaimers.

Strato has finally found her sweet abode. Many thanks to almighty God.

Many thanks to silent supporters and other people. I received a scrap with very kind words.

Thanks people :-)
You know, its a very tough war, this war against sloth. And those 5 more minutes of sleep that always lasts an hour and sends all your appointments (morning walk among other things) to hell shall always remain a mystery. Its easy to come back from office, watch TV and sleep. But the thought that there are at least some more computers where this web page will be opened (and read, hopefully) keeps me going.

Bas, aaj koi gana nahi bajega. Radio kharab hai.
