It's not some super duper project I'm working on and I'm really not 1 to blow my own trumpet. Well Ok maybe sometimes. Anyways I'm working on the most critical project in my personal life since I left home. Code name Operation 4G.
Let's cut to the chase. Come 10th October and my house is going to be invaded by ....wait for it... Can't help it since I'm such a HIMYM fan.. OK my house is going to be invaded by the 4 generations i.e. My granny, My mum, My sis and my nephew. 4 generations hence 4 G and each one with his/her own agenda.
My granny comes with the one point agenda to get me married to a nice mallu Syrian christian girl. Actually might not be such a bad idea. The min going rate for a syrian christian boy would be in the 5 million range. Me with my healthy disposition and an engg deg to boot (no self respecting mallu cares about an IIM) could probably pocket around 5 million. Hee Hee. Think abou the digital home theatre system I could setup with that kind of moolah.
My mother would probly agree with my granny's agenda except that she really wouldn't care for the Syrian Christian part. And she'd probably kill me if I accepted dowry being the equal rights person n all. She also wants to see what exactly am I up to. Am I eating healthy n all.
My sister is here to see the fun and add fire at the right moments and to ensure I get no chance to get away.
N my nephew is here because the little guy knows that his uncle is his only hope when it comes to toys, games, actually fun on the whole. He's also my secret weapon to keep my granny distracted.
So my solution is operation 4G.
Operation 4G works on multiple levels.
The first level is distraction. The idea is to never give any of the 4G elements a chance to really get enough time to corner me. So the first thing I did was to buy a Tata Sky Plus Digi com. the idea is to record every mallu movie within the next week so that there is enough content to keep my granny busy. For good measure I am even going to rent/buy a couple of good mallu movie discs :D.
The second level is extreme fatigue. Keep them touring Bangalore. Lined up a visit to Lal baug. Lunch at Cornocupia. Dinner at ITC Gardenia. 2 days in Mysore and maybe 2 more in Chikmaglur/mangalore.
The third level is cuteness. Buy enough toys for my nephew so that he is at his cutest best keeping everyone distracted.
Anyway my 4G plan also involves making my house a little liveable in the family way. So tomm mornin/noon courtesy PJ I am goin to visit Metro to get nice plates, glasses, sheets, food etc etc. Meanwhile my big TV plan has been altered a bit. I'm goin to buy a plasma TV simply because the colors are so much better and I'm going to get it post my very destructive nephew going back to Mumbai. I've moved all the curios in the front room furniture to higher higher shelves and the nice little bookshelf in the front room is going to be sealed with tape.
So there it is an overview of the plan I have in place to meet the 3 most wonderful women in my life and the little adorable brat.
Operation 4G is on and we take no prisoners.
Luv,
PR
