Strange things do happen like what happened today. I was on duty at the hospital and I had this cold/viral fever prodrome. I asked for permission to get back home to take some rest. Normally, this would mean terror for me.
- I would be missing out on some hospital-time [read feel-good-time].
- Then because of the cold, the day would be dull.
- I would have needed to spend the time with my parents.
But it was totally different. After taking a short nap, I was feeling much better. To make up for the total loss of the day (in terms of academics) yesterday because of the argument bit, I studied well for some time.
Then came the event of the month - I watched a movie on Television with my mother while ironing my clothes!!! Three solid reasons why this is special.
- I can't usually watch movies on TV at home unless my parents are on tour.
- I haven't watched a movie with my mother in about 10 years.
- In my whole life, I have never done so much of ironing.
- And like in the sit-coms, I was actually doing chores while watching television and enjoying it!
Wow, after years and years, I had an evening with my parents!
