Being in the fashion trade has it's own con's.. one of them is you end up being hyper critical ( unsure if it is a dictionary word :) )... if one happens to be enjoying a quite meal with friends your eyes might be wandering around on someone's ill fitting skirt or miss-match sandals. and worst still a curtain that is not matching to the wall color.. someone would stand up and say" what does a curtain has to do with matching walls"..
fair enough a curtain has absolutely no personal sense of matching yet we would discuss it..
it begins to spiral down further when one starts applying the same logic's to people .. living and breathing one's.. whether his or her opinions match or even worse what did he or she mean by that and whether you can match it to your personal likes or dislikes...
some time back i was sipping coffee with a friend who unlike me was single.. we were discussing men and i asked if being single is her choice... she famously said "it's not that i don't want to , may be i didn't find the right man.."
"babes , there is nothing like a right man in this world .. "i say" or rather there is no permanent mr. right." am i being wise or i am being critical of the male fraternity in general??..
" but things have to match somewhat" she protests..
matching again.. see who was saying there cannot be matching in curtains.. people match humans as well ..
"hmm !! what do you mean by matching??"
she explains " you see all the men i meet are either too smart or downright dumb. one of them even had the courage to come up and ask if i was a virgin"
this is getting interesting .. i nod unapproovingly waiting to hear what she replied
" i asked him if he believed in free sex? he was taken aback and said hell no!!.. so i replied then how much do you charge for it.."
hehe that was real good one..
" looks like i'll have to kiss a lot of frogs before i find my prince charming" she added
well only if i had the cheek to tell her that most prince charming's turn into frogs after wedding kiss.. so i give her one of those" i know what u mean babes" looks while smiling at the imagination of my husband transforming into a frog.. what a weirdo i can be ..gosh!!
and the waiter arrives with our hot coffee and we both say in unison " Who would want mugs printed with red bhandhej pattern.. it just doesn't match !!"
back to matching ... hehe
lovely!!! absolutely commendable job!! precise yet universal account!! I must admit that I envy u for this one!!!
