Rain Rain Come Again ...

"Be careful what you wish for...it just might come true" .
Exactly . I started getting cold feet about the whole cricket thing, the moment I left lab friday evening. I was almost nauseous. But then that could also be that god-awful mushroom I bit into while devouring hunan chicken from CS (china star...thot it would be easier for me to abbreviate it, due to its excessive mention in my blogs).I don't know what came over me ...I should have just ordered my regular instead of trying something new. Even all the ice-cream in my fridge could'nt make me feel better ...c'mon there is only so much chocolate almond fudge can do.

To make things catastrophic, we girls also decided to 'watch' the guys practice at the nets . Yah ...like that was going to make us feel all inspired and raring to go the next day. It does'nt help much either to know your fellow players themselves are in the pits. I don't know how hard I must have prayed...but lo and behold we were drenched in a sudden shower of rain, that threatened to go on all night. I was so elated, I could have danced in the rain ...except that my fav jeans would be totally spoiled in the slush. We still could have had the game yesterday, if it had'nt rained all night. He he he, but it rained cats and dogs all night .

Its crazy, but I could'nt help feeling a strange sense of relief. But who was I kidding ...this joy was going to last only until the next weekend .We would eventually have to play. I do have an escapist attitude and that coupled to procrastination, frankly, is a very deadly combination to possess. Nevertheless, pep-talked myself into developing a "jo hoga dekha jayega" attitude. Also , shopping helps a lot ...atleast for the girls. Post shopping we had a girls night at my place. Celebrated the "postponed match" with wine and hummus & chips sandwiches (awesome combination btw).

Last Heard : The pitch was inspected on saturday morning and declared unfit. The matches are postponed "indefinately" ....he he he ha ha ha.
