Living with a full ache. Today I did not go to the gym and felt like reaching out to people. Started with a trip to the tailor. Gave my favourite pair of Zara denims for the tailor to mend. The fabric at the seams was fraying. Wore my fire engine red shirt with my grey skirt. I quite love that look. I have a red lipstick from Sugar - it is a kind of a chilli pepper red that is gorgeous.
Then called up a friend from Pune and we talked about ghosts. He sent me a horror film.
Then went over to my neighbour's house where I met her mother and had lovely homemade cold coffee. She looked healthy.
Then went out with a friend. That was nice. Bandstand is just so nourishing!
Read and article that I found idiotic: https://bymanujoseph.com/2025/08/16/about-insulting-men-for-not-reading-novels/
Just because you are an author of some reputed, you start drenching biases in broad strokes and call it social commentary? So now penalize people (women) for having a preference for men who read? Anyway his perspective. It's quite parochial though.
Here are all the things I am grateful for:
1. Papa is well.
2. Got really good onions from Farmers Market. They were expensive but really good.
3. Got through a workday without losing my cool.
4. Had tasty food yesterday. Cook stewed some fruits with jaggery and used them as a spread on toast as a compote. Nice!
5. Conversation with a friend went well.
