Interludes

You know how you sometimes crave for something familiar, almost forgotten but still hidden somewhere in obscure corners of your mind...more so when your away from home which, agreed, I'm not at the moment...but for me I guess being away is the familiar part...being back home takes some serious getting used to...but just things like eating mama's chocolate cake(she never bakes anymore!)...or the smell of that first coffee of the day...or the feel of your oldest pair of jeans...022 numbers on my cell phone...being called whines...gossiping with old friends...fighting with my dad...P.G. Wodehouse...

Yesterday, for me, was familiar...K's in town (for almost a week yayy!!)...and though I've never got to spend time with him in Madras, spending time with him was exactly like spending time with him anywhere else...I think my relationship with him is the one thing that I'm really proud of...not too many people can say that they have a great relationship with their ex boyfriends...in fact not too many people can say that they have a relationship at all with their ex boyfriends...but when I think of K, I just have to smile...

And yesterday was perfect...a long drive down ECR...blue skies...sitting on the beach and drinking (had some serious Goa reminiscing!)...just being ourselves...completing each other's sentences...knowing exactly what he was thinking and about to say...it was the most fun that I'd had in a really long time...simply because I dont have to try even a little with him...I can just be myself and screw the rest...

Thank God for these little interludes in my life!
