My dear person

This is an idea I have been mulling for, for the longest time. I have always wanted to put pen to paper and tell you some more about myself. I know you do feel that you know me real well and I go out of my way to “talk about how open, I am as a person…”well, I am, but there are somethings that just get discovered when you eject them out.

To begin with, I am a sucker of cleanliness, but there are dirt spots in my room, which would put a pig to shame. I am real clean as a person, but also real superficially clean – so if there is dust behind my bed, I put on blinkers, or think that’s beyond my “worry if its clean” zone.

I also keep claiming that I love animals…I do, but also am just a wee bit scared of dogs…particularly the snarly variety. I am also petrified of all types of roaches, reptiles and frogs.

I keep saying that superstitions are bunkum, vaastu shastra is stupid, feng shui does nothing but assuage your guilt…but actually, am wary of black cats crossing my path …shall retrace my steps if I chance on one, do the hanuman chalisa pretty regularly and have visited oily looking palmists for readings.

My computer skills aint that hot either… I falter pretty often… and there are days when I have requested an it guy to sit by my side. I also don’t know how to convert a word file into an adobe.

I don’t know the entire English vocabulary.

I actually do shop @ janpath.

I can enjoy a himmesh reshmayyia song.

And much as I act casual about you, you do matter… in more ways and on more days than I choose to tell you.

thats a beautiful post. to begin with i am going to pretend that it is adressed to me ;)

i can't really say what i was more surprised by, let me just do a complete tally:

dirt spots: i suspected those

petrified of dogs: i cant belive this

oily palmists, computer skills and himmesh: these you have confessed in the past. and even if you haven't they are essential to the person u r so we would have guessed anyways

english vocab: to me you will always be my friend who knows the entire vocab and more and adds to it at her own will. our very own shakes...

and the casual is affected just so it remains effortless

ps: I think i have done pretty well on the nglish here myself
