Its nice to be pampered once in a while...the line which invariably comes to my mind when ever I go to a parlour. So for the first time I go to Nails studio in US and get the same feeling again. But I miss the Indian ones where they talk and pamper us in a different way. They charged me 28$ ..its not about the money but I miss the Indian parlours and all the 'akka' gang. Last time I went, one of parlour girl said its not 'really worth' to get something done. A subtle hint at the growing education and sophistication in India. Here this Mexican lady did not smile much at me and I felt she ended abruptly the whole thing. Anyways the feet and hand look a bit polished and neat...and its going to be eons before I go there again.

Sometimes its nice to be left alone at home. Just by yourself and today the opportunity came twice in one day. I did not switch on the TV nor did I cook. It was just me and myself. It is Nice.

In a major development when we are watching a movie Akhil is watching along with us with the same intensity. Absorbing everything he sees with his two sharp eyes. The other day I was trying a new pant and wanted to see it in mirror. Before I realize this guy who was watching what I was doing pulls a chair stands on top of it and pats himself near the bottom and chest. ( catching head with rolling eyes ).
