Maximum Dreams!!

Another week has gone by and my married status now stands at 2 weeks. I could be celebrating all the stupid kinds of anniversaries at this point which newly wed or madly in love couples tend to celebrate so much, the weekly , the fortnightly, the monthly , the quarterly, lest not forgetting the actual annual flavor. These people can celebrate every day sighting some sort of an obtuse relation with the D-day. But its 2 to tango, a couple and I am alone here....I have no time to celebrate such trivialities, I am single mindedly concentrating on getting her on board before we take off on our journey into the vast ,unknown and turbulent seas of gruhasth ashram.

With that part of my life taken care of, theres' just another .0001% left to my life right now. And that I am using to write this blog. Have been doing a lot of reading lately. At one point of time I was simultaneously reading 3 books, but sanity prevailed and I opted for the linear rather than the simultaneous approach to book reading. So then I am finished with Maximum City and have turned towards Losing my Virginity. Both I must say are thoroughly engaging. The former more so because I could actual relate to a lot of it. Not in the first person but as a bystander being witness to the great chaos called Mumbai. The author has churned up engaging portraits , to such an extent that my dreams at one point had taken the style of a narrative of Suketu Mehta describing one of his many sub plots. It tells a hell lot of stories but in the end the book still makes you think and thats why I liked it so much. The latter is what I have currently at hand and on my reading table (lap).

My life lately has been rather dreamy , the month long leave, my wedding, amazing times with my love before it. And the present is not happening enough to pull me out of my dream land of the past. So here I am sitting back in a bean bag of my dreams...kicking back and relaxing.
