im back!!!

yeah baby im back from my 3 week vacation i couldnt stop ranting about..actually its been quite a while since im here but i was going through a bout of depression..you know after 3 weeks with your favorite people staying alone can be killing. its like the walls want to eat you up or do you want to be eaten up by them?

and no, i didnt jinx my vacation by going on and on about it...it was a purely beautiful vacation...but my car for sure is jinxed...that baby stands at the service centre for longer than in my parking lot. but this time it has gone real far. its been lying with those suckers for 1-week now. On monday it just didnt start...simply.. "abhi mood nahi hai" types. So i thought ok, lets give her some rest. I called the service guys on tuesday, they said the fuel is not reaching the engine...that should be fine in any place in the world except for this village. It seems a fuel filter (which is what my car needs to start) is not available in entire bangalore..what the f!@#? Now really..i dont even know if im cursing the village for right reasons coz i really dont trust these guys also.

So long story short, she is idling her time among the blue-overalled men since 4 days and no return in sight..sigh..and to think the weekend is starting and i have no car...aaargh..meanwhile im getting all sorts of ideas such as....

First i thought ill sell her off and buy another. but my dad snubbed me royally (no i was not asking him for permission..i was asking for money). Then i thought forget it ill not sell her.. just send her back to my dad (so that he also has to open his tap o'money for her upkeep) and ill buy a new one myself. Then i thought that this is a very expensive idea and i need to save for my apps and all that and so ill buy a scooty and keep this baby too.

The only problem with the last idea is that im not too comfortable around scooties (if you read the last post). AND im also wondering if ill ever be as good with biking as im with my car. So lets see...for now..all plans are on hold and im praying TATAs make a better and more manageable car next time around so that no one else in the world suffers what i have suffered. amen.
