home sweet home!!

and i m back!!!
back home.....unprecedented break but most welcome...it feels a tad strage coz i wasnt mentally prepared for this sudden holiday but i m loving it!!
came back home with dad......and when u stay with dad or travel with him u do it in style!!!
i stayed one night at taj palace with him....WOW!!!
it was such an awesome experience...it was like i was being treated like this mulitmillionare for one night.....i got to drink white wine(read watermelon juice) n have steak sitting in a wonderfully pretty bar with dad......gazed at cigars and the waiter actually came up to me and asked whether i wanted one.....i must have looked like i can afford them!!!yayyy!!!for small mercies i tell u!!
and the bed....oh the bed....u just sink into it....its so lovely!
and then in the morning get whisked away in your limousine(read white esteem)to the airport and fly first class....now i have just flown first class once before and that too by default so this was an awesome experience!!and i felt like the world's biggest clutz!i did not know wat to do....wat they were gng to do n how i shud react.......so at least i try and act like this posh snobby business woman who does this all time......i walk up to them like i m the CEO of some hep company n then i flounder terribly!!its so embarassing when u dnt know wat to do...how to act in certain situations...like a simple thing like - do i ask for tea or do they come up n ask me for it...i know its stupid but these are very important basic questions....like as soon as i entered the airport someone came and whisked my bag away and all the way to the aircraft i just had my purse to carry....it was like i was this VVIP!!!!and then i was taken to the exclusive lounge and like a small kid i just blindly followed my dad lest i become this huge embarassment for him!!so he went n got a muffin...i closely followed him, memorised every step he took n every thing he sed n then after 5 mins making sure it did not look too copied went n got myself a croissant!!n i did flounder....i cud not open the shelf where they kept the croissant...so i struggled for some mins before this very nice man came n helped me....n i salvaged the situation with a very professional 'thank you'(yeah there are things like professional thank you's!)
neway so i was travelling kingfisher airlines n i must confess i m this snob who does not think much of these low cost airlines but i was blown away with their hospitality and their amenities!!the coach which took us to the aircraft had sofas inside in place of normal seats!i mean can u imagine red sofa's!!!pretty neat i must say!!
and then i had a tv with me where i cud watch live television like star world or zee cafe or discovery travel and living and this is not only exclusive to first class.....everyone has a tv on the flight....and the food was needless to sey brilliant!i had this cheese omelete stuffed with salmon mousse!!I KNOW!!!it was truly living the good times!!loll
neway so i m back home and feel terrible to say that i miss delhi a bit....n i miss work most of all!

But i am enjoying a week at home n it is truly wonderful to be back home again.....yes it is.
