Damn it rained cats and dogs yesterday in Kathmandu. I guess it rained all over Nepal. Blame it to global warming that we are now having such rain in Chaitra. As far as I remember, Chaitra is the time when women in skirts feel like Marilyn Monroe with the big gush of wind. But I tell you we faced hail and storm yesterday out here.

            I find Saturdays very boring at times. If I start writing that all Saturdays are boring, perhaps you will feel that I don’t have a life. So let me dramatize my yesterday for you. After the hailstorm mellowed down to a drizzle, I walked to my friends place for some chitchat. Blame it to the loadshedding, we always have so much to talk about specially when there is no electricity.

            She is my partner in crime. Lately there is this guy she hangs out with, I seriously don’t like. You know one of the smartarse, MR KNOW ALL. Hey! I am not being judgmental but I have already got into 2 arguments with him and he said something bad on my face, even flipped the birdy at me. And I have severe issues with people who disrespect women.

            Apparently this guy was there yesterday. He stopped by her place because it rained, he got drenched and he needed to dry himself up. When I reached, his bike was parked outside the house and I was pissed…lol…yea the first thought “ ufff I have to be nice to him”. But hey what I saw was his keys were still in the bike. And my friend’s house is not the ones with the cute garden type. She lives in a building so the bike was parked on the road. Suddenly I felt I was dressed in RED with horns coming out of my head,”What if I take his bike keys and flush it down the toilet”. He will go crazy looking for it. The best part is my friend lives in Kupondole and he lives out in Maharajgunj. No No! I won’t flush it down. It is too bad. I ll take it with me, and probably return it in a week’s time. I will make an argument that who asked him to leave it carelessly like that. Infact thank me that I took it before someone took your bike.

In 5 minutes time I had this whole conversation, planning and plotting in my head. I hate to say this but, I took the keys out of the bike, walked inside and threw it on his face. I told him to be careful next time. He gave me, the WTF look.

I was not even 50 percent out of this whole episode that my life has to give me more lemons while I ran out of Vodka. There is this lady at my work, she hates me for no reason and goes around telling that how bad of a person I am. I don’t like to give much attention and priority to people who are not in my good books. Infact I keep a very professional relation with her. Today when I reached office, she was sitting on my chair, using my computer. Now this is highs of bullying. I smiled at her ( oh that was very forceful, I thought I will die of the pain incurred by that smile I gave her). She looked at me and said “hey internet is not working on my computer, so I thought I ll use your PC for a while if that is fine with you”. I was very annoyed but I had to say ITS OK. I thought by the time she finishes I ll get some coffee. When I got back she was already out of the place and was talking to another colleague.

“Oh thank you so much love, you are a savior. Don't worry I didn’t go through any of your folders”. She walked away. I was in the WTF mode. So calming myself down when I sat down on my PC, I felt Christmas just came back early. Her facebook was not logged out, her gmail was also not logged out. Stupid woman!! You should not have talked ill about me. Now see you are so vulnerable. I can barge into your privacy; I will know your dirty secrets. PUFFF!!  I was back in the red dress again. Devil in me was at full swing. But the moment I put my fingers on the mouse, I felt what will be the difference between her and me, if I do the same. Am I going to be any different? Will I be able to live with this? Oh hell! I don’t care I just want to take my revenge. She spoke back about me and I got this chance.

Man!! At the end of all this. I logged off without even looking at anything. I could have done a lot of bad things but will I be proud of it I asked myself. I regret losing this chance. I really felt bad that I didn’t use my chance, not once but twice in 24 hours. But trust me, at the end of the day I am here writing this and asking.... what is wrong with me? Am I Stupid or  Am I Smart?
