hi
i hope you had a good day.
Let me assure you that i am thoroughly drenched and somewhat drunk as i type this. so please pardon the typos, grammar and other mishaps in this somewhAt brief letter.
Let me work backwards.
I reached home drenched after dropping rahul at his place in Alwarpet, his place. I borrowd a cover from him to cover the bag. We left from Gandhi Nagar at around 11-30 when the rains had let down for a while. Did you enjoy the rains? I thought you might have... maybe you stepped out into your terrace or out in the open and let your arms and face get drenched.
We left from Estelle at around 11-15. We had a long conversation there between glasses of beer. We were five - Amrut, his wife, Rahul, aneesh and me. we spent most of the time talking about good old days and tripping on amrut. At some point i felt guilty for having so much fun. suddenly i realised what you would be going thru. I am sorry man. I know your loss is bigger than mine. By miles...
I hope you are doing okay.
before that we were in gandhi nagar discussing stake division and equity and profit and loss and balance sheet and other business stuff that you wont be too interested in.
before that I went to drop off my colleague in besi after having chat with her at Adyar ananda bhavan. She is a very nice girl, who turned 20 yesterday and i thought i should give her a treat. She hadn't had lunch so i thought i will get her something to eat. She preferred chat and hence we landed up at A2B.
Before that I was in the library. I spent a lot of time figuring out the Kotagiri plan. I am heading there between 9th and 12th October to conduct classes for 1-5 kids based on the modules we have prepared and I am also conducting a theatre workshop for the older kids.
while I was preparing the content for the classes I came across this book called Underwear by Mary Elise Monsell. Its about a Zebra and a Orangutuan which love undies and they challenge a grumpy buffallo to say "underwear" without laughing and the grumpy buffallo ends up laughing his ass off. there is a youtube video of a mum reading it out to her daughter. i hope you end up writing such awesome stories for kids someday. You should check it out. I really loved it. I would laugh my ass off if some grumpy old buffallo said "underwear" ten times in a row.
Before that I went to tiffanys for lunch with the librarian. she is a very sweet girl, you know. Although she is gonna be a mother soon, she is so full of innocence. We ended up talking about how we loved Mankatha and Ajith's performance in it. I had meals while she had curd rice.
Before that I spent quite a while preparing for the theatre class that i am going to conduct in Kotagiri. I wish you can come attend this class of mine dude. I know I am not like awesome or anything but I am sure you would be proud of me. Oh, i forgot to tell you. I spoke to my childhood friend Usman regarding some help i needed - I am looking for a videographer to accompany me to kotagiri so that we can video tape the whole workshop and then edit it and make a half hour video and send it to schools. Usman Sarjun said he would help me out. He is currently working with Mani Ratnam as an AD. yeah I know. totally jealous of him.
And before that i left from home and was on my way to insti. I was driving inside the campus when i braked to let two deer cross and i suddenly remember how much fun we had the other day... you were playing with them outside the gate... you were so scared and excited and you looked so adorable and innocent. that image is stuck in my head.
And before that I started my day on a very good note. The Bombay guys paid up! My bank account isn't actually empty now. I did a little jig and jumped around the house.
And before that i reluctantly woke up because my mum kept saying its past 8 and i had asked her to wake me up.
And before that I had a dream...
of you.
Hope you had a good day. I am sorry I didnt look at the paper today.
I hope I didn't miss your name.
I don't care what you say.
I am exploring the world, I am moving on to new projects.
I am not gonna let go.
not yet.
loads of warmth,
and affection,
and longing,
Suresh.
