House Hunting

You probably are going to be disappointed at the end of this post to not find anything about pointers for looking for houses, apartments etc. But I am sure you will also be equally amazed to learn yet another trait of Raji.
An abnormally cold winter day - best option was to stay indoor lay on the couch and watch some tele. Dang! My satellite channels don’t seem to be working which means I have to watch whatever english show is playing on the Dutch channels. But luckily for me (and the revival of this blog) House was on air.
Raji, who hasn’t watched the 30 minute sitcom before, was quickly sucked in the madness of the protagonist, words picked up from a medical thesarus (Pruritis, cephalgia, flatus etc).
Gautam: (45 minutes after House started) I am switching off the TV

Raji: Eh u go ya. I want to see what happens at the end of the show.

Gautam: but..

Raji: shhhh!!!

Gautam: But the show got over already…

In Conversation with Myself

Any reference to a character flabby or talktative is purely coincidental.
This is a narration of a true incident with fictional characters.

Setting the scene: Sitting in the bus to Amstelveen, Raji and Gautam are having a post-day-at-work convervsation. Raji was mentioning how difficult her colleague "Sherbet" was being and just then another colleague got onto the bus at the next stop. Digamber makes his way to an empty seat and makes himself comfortable. Both Raji and Gautam look at him, then each other and nod in disapproval.
Gautam: Has Digamber become a TM finally?
Raji: No he's just an acting TM.
Gautam: Oh so hes not got an Internal promotion as yet?
Raji: who got promotion?
Gautam: Digamber?
Raji: he got a promotion?
Gautam: arrrreeee.. U said he has become an acting TM
Raji: When did I say that?
Gautam: at the start of the conversationnnnnn…
Raji: oh! I thought that conversation was over
