Aha now this is my first blog(the unpublished ones don’t count)
..i might as well write about the title itself 32 out(no it is not sponsored
my Colgate or for that matter even close-up…shesh).people complain
disguised as a compliment that I have my 32 out most of the time .first to
put the record straight I can’t even boast of a set of 32..the dentist
informed me giving a no of “29”..with promises of molar which people
around me fervently hope will bring more sense in me..huh…hjgh hopes.
So where were we…right 32 all out …my ma thinks that this is gonna
get me in big trouble some day…coz she things I have mastered
all kinds of giggles, squeals, smirks, grins, smiles, the not so visible but visible to my ma smile,gaufaws…you name it and you got it!!!!!!!!!!
But then you can’t put all the blame on me right..some how…
there has to be someone up there scheming who lands me in situations where my canines surface.
OK you don’t believe me…then read this…my entire team flew to client
office to give a presentation and for some reason which is not worth
occupying word space here the client had to move out some where
so we ended up having a tele call(that ‘s the one where you can even snooze..and pretend to be all ears at the same time)
now the client was called at his 9 PM so this fellow was all
gastromically satiated (we have evidence hold on)..and sounded in
a good mood phew…half the job done …my team mate should thank me for choosing that time for calling him…hungry clients are metaphors of “I don like what you are saying “ monsters…
so we started. The mood was all set he seemed to be hearing and agreeing on everything and I was counting my good stars…man this can’t be happening,
I thought of pinching my self but the thought of breaking a pleasant dream this good was not worth so I took my chances and just touched wood and hoped it to be reality…
so the scene goes as one happy team discussing and suddenly
of all the things in the world we hear
“BURP……..duh..”(bola tha na evidence hai)
And the moment I realize what it is I am ready with my mouth all set but....i did not burst out laughing (ma you got to give me a pat for this one).
And then comes the best part my team mate who up till now was so deeply engrossed in explaining that statistics goes” excuse me I did not get it…what did you say”
The poor fellow who was all eager to hear appreciation anticipating good words queried again …and all he got was silence…silence from an individual …who has an opinion on everything on this planet right from why the world is round (he prefers the scientific version to nandannilekani’s inspired Thomas Friedman’s view of world being flat) to usage of salt as preservative then vinegar…
and to add to his bafflement I had turned a shade of crimson….trying to
control my hands from putting up a banner saying this part of the presentation was sponsored by “ENO” and control my mouth from asking questions like which flavor of eno do you like most or do you prefer ayurvedic versions like pudin hara.
But alas I controlled and the rest of the meeting went burp-less (at least not audible).
And the client did seem happy in the end, though I still wonder was it the acknowledgements that he received from his digestive system that pleased him or our presentation...hmm food for thought or should I say..burp for thought….
See you got my point it’s not me but things around me that make the world go round and
Make the white ones(yeh yeh I brush them..they haven’t turned green because of the fungus that I dread could just appear) surface.
That reminds me my visit to the dentist is due. Damn.
PS: Did you notice I wrote the entire thing minus all smiley’s…nominate me for the Oscar equivalent of blogging…go on…I won’t mind…I swear.
BLOG Ends.
:) (I said the blog ends so the smiley doesn’t matter right.)
