Crispy Creepy Weekend – 09/12

Because of back to back religious festivals Bangalore IT professionals were gifted with a long weekend. Most of the people rushed home towns that Thursday evening. All buses towards Tamil Nadu and to various other districts with in Karnataka were overwhelming with non-பெங்களூர்'ians. Bangalore city was fully packed with traffic towards bus/railway stations. It would take at half-an hour to cross one kilometer. And that’s one reason why I didn’t plan to go home.

My room mates were no exception – I presume they would have left office pretty early than usual. Taking that as an advantage I planned for many things. Hey hold-on. I know, dirty minds have dirty thoughts. Let me clearly say what my plans were… It is like washing my room, watching some good movies in volume, some useful surfing, completes the long pending wblogs on Hackers, etc., I don’t know if it is my rasi or in capability to execute things that I have planned. This time too; adding to the records.

Friday afternoon, after completely cleaning my room, I laid down for a nap. I knew Vodafone sisters would call up at unusual times for advertising new offers. So I kept my mobile on silent mode and went to sleep. It is not more than a quarter of an hour – a loud ring tone woke me up. That was my landline. I didn’t attend the call but I knew who that was. Check my mobile – quite a few missed calls. That was from none other than our Madurai Maddy Mr Rams. Before I come out of this shock there was another shock when I called him on his mobile. I was at his house in the next couple of minutes. I saw two young (but actually old) gentle men appearing matured in family life seated with their better-halves at their sides. Mrs & Mr Ramasubramanian and Mrs & Mr Rajasekar - Raj’s daughter playing around. That was an unannounced get-together.

We started to chat with some home made snacks passed across. In fact the Mrs Rams came back from home town that morning. Hope you guys remember the invitation I Rams had sent out to all. I am still confused who was our first target that day. When ever I target Rams for boozing when his wife was not around I only see his wife reacting. Be it for boozing, Kaushalya, or for the AXE effect or for the FAT that he has in body – I only see his wife jumping in for his rescue, and this guys – as usual with his giggling and belly dance. Then after, we targeted Raj. You guys very well know what we have to tease him. I was not an exception, though. Later, we all planned to move to Raj’s house to spend that night there. But we pushed it to the next day as no one was planned of that.

Saturday evening, we all again gathered at Raj’s house. Some good Tamil movies were been telecasted for Ganesh chadurthi. As we were nearing dinner time both mistresses disappeared into the kitchen. I was in fact waiting for the dinner to get over so that I can start targeting mistresses. That was only to defend our friends and not their husbands. There were lots of complaints on Rams and Raj. These poor guys had lot almost all freedoms they had. Freedom of sighting, freedom of boozing, freedom of smoking, freedom of driving and many other freedoms. Since all you other guys are at different locations I had to solely rescue them. I don’t know what all struggles you guys are facing at your end.

As we were talking about all these freedom I got a call on my mobile. I don’t know if that was a coincident – it was Raama, he was boozing when he called me.

Next morning we spent most of the time in planning where to go for the rest of the day but by then I got a call from office and had to leave. Raj and Rams spent the rest of the day together at a bowling center.

Guys, Raj’s daughter has grown up now and pretty cleaver in remembering things.

Wish we all should meet once soon...
