I have been thinking of this from quite some time now but finally it happened and I am thankful it happened. Wanted to take a break from work, wanted to feel being at home, enjoy the monsoon,(Oh yes! It’s Oct and still raining in Hyderabad 
don’ believe..? Go and check weather report 
) waking up late without worrying about piles of work-load at office or cerebral planning of dealing with the day’s schedule, meetings, reports, deadlines etc… etc…! Simply putting forth wanted to enjoy some moments of absolute freedom and pleasure. Freedom of mind and spirit. Yes, vacation necessarily does not mean taking time off to some exotic place, plush greenery, valleys. It can be even being at home, doing things that you love the most, watching a DVD at home theatre, cooking yourself a lovely meal…relishing every bite, a warm hair oil massage, anytime nap, or just sitting by the window sill and gazing at the intermittent shower outside and listening to melodious and soulful music. Yes, I just did that 
something perhaps called self-therapy?
I regret JUST one thing in life 
of not having learnt how to ride a bike, or else I would have ventured out for a long…long…long drive downtown in this downpour and allow the rain to drench me…completely and permit the wintry breeze stroke my face tenderly…. !
I felt relaxed just reading this post. This kind of therapy is genuinely needed in the middle of our really fast paced life. Only the last thing you want to do sounded risky to me. I guess long drive on a two wheeler in the rain, although sounding fun, may not be the safest thing to do in India, right? Hey have no regrets, looks like you had a great, deserved, restful day. Enjoy this long weekend (Gandhi Jayanthi right?). I will envy you, hardly any long weekends or holidays of any kind here.
Thanku
!! Trust me it was even more relaxing & enjoyin these holidayz at home 
… am a complete home bird…!! Well, drivin is indeed risky if it’s me since I don’t know driving a bike :p but I really reallly want to learn some day… that masti is almost inexplicable!!! It’s indeed a long weekend 
have some more plans now 
You must try in that case! You made an offer to swaram, hehehe…i’m thinking that she’s thinking twice about the offer she made! Just kidding you two. Wear a helmet! Hehehe!
OMG, just reading the post made me feel so gud! I so want such time .. wow, this long weekend is gonna help
Wasie, cn I be ur driver
I wud like to go on that drive too ha ha ha 
I am really glad it did
!!!! Trust me, it’s so much fun!!! Wishing you a great weekend ahead dear 
!
You most welcome but on one condition…you would have to teach me then how to drive :p
Deal?
@ Anup: Oh yes, then both Swaram and I can blog about it
…On the helmet front, yes…it’s so much required while learning and surely while driving…
