Almost Evicted

We were on our way to Kalyan for Bhaubeej... Arnav, My sis, Dad, Me and my Brother-in-law(who was driving). Bro-in-law decided to play songs from Rock On. I love the songs from that movie, the music is good and all.. but more importantly because I can actually sing along with some of the songs without sounding really besura :-)

The song 'Tum ho toh' starts playing, I sing along... utilizing my full lung and vocal chord capacity at the 'zindaagiiiiiii' part. Now Arnav's sitting next to me, and he's really really getting irritated. He asks me politely to not sing. I don't listen.

Next, tired of just sitting around in the Car,I start practicing the finger conditioning exercises that Ashwin has asked us to do. My sis asks me about it, I explain how it strengthens your fingers and to demonstrate, I jab her in the upper arm.

She hollers in pain.

Arnav who's had enough of me by now, stands up on his seat and starts yelling, "Dad please stop the car. Ask Mugdha to get out. She's troubling everyone, not listening to anyone, is generally being naughty and doing a lot of mischief."

His age 5 1/2 years. My age 30 years.

By the end of the trip:

1.Ravi did not evict me on the Thane-Kalyan Highway.
2. We had an extremely disgruntled child in the car.
3. My sister found a great way of demonstrating to her son how annoying it was when someone did not listen to you.
4. I just had a lot of fun.
