The Chocolate Song by Buddy Wasisname

Has me totally hooked.....

It affects our seritonin, which reduces aches and pains
And does all kinds of cool things to the chemistry of our brains.
So totally hooked....

Cause we love chocolate, mouth watering chocolate
Black forest cheesecake, and chocolate torte
Some chocolate rum balls, sweet chocolate windfalls,
Bring on the chocolate, we need a boost.



Most of you would know by now how crazy I am about chocolate.... if not, then check out

The Chocolate Song lyrics by Buddy Wasisname

When your feet feel like they're made of stone and your bones are full of lead
Muscles feel like they're galvanized and there's concrete in your head
When your blood flows like molasses, you can't add two and two
The top looks like the bottom and orange looks like blue.

When you feel like you're hung over but you didn't drink last night
Your eyes look like a road map and your underwear feels tight
Gravity seems multiplied and your organs are on strike
You're in sudden death overtime and the wheels are off your bike

You need some chocolate, soft creamy chocolate
Some chocolate ice cream, and chocolate mousse
Some chocolate cheesecake, Bavarian chocolate
Bring on the chocolate, you need a boost.

They say it gives us pimples, it's addictive and it stains
It makes us fat and hyper, and clogs up all our veins
It puts migraines in our noggins and it's worse than cigarettes
But all those things are easier than having a chocolate fit.

Now there's lots of medical evidence to support our point of view
It's not all psychological, good news for me and you
It affects our seritonin, which reduces aches and pains
And does all kinds of cool things to the chemistry of our brains.

Good old chocolate, dark chewy chocolate
Nanaimo snack bars, chocolate eclairs
Hot chocolate sundae, sweet chocolate milkshake
Bring on the chocolate, we need a boost.

Now they say we're chocoholics and we have a legitimate beef
That we should lobby government to get funding for relief
Now if you can keep a secret, just leave it up to me.
I'll take the funds and build us a chocolate factory.

And if life should get too heavy and we decide to end it all
We won't do it with a pistol, drugs or alcohol
We'll just take a thousand dollars to a nice dessert café
Eat a dump truck load of chocolate and do ourselves away.

Cause we love chocolate, mouth watering chocolate
Black forest cheesecake, and chocolate torte
Some chocolate rum balls, sweet chocolate windfalls,
Bring on the chocolate, we need a boost.
Bring on the chocolate, chocolate, chocolate, yeah.....we need a boost!

Kaala Shah Kaala

Just love it, how a nice song on radio can perk up a boring Monday morning drive to work... :-)

Aaj Main Khush Huun ~ Ek Muskurahat

My gtalk tagline....

Aaj Main Khush Huun
Lo Tum Hi Bolo Main Huun Khush Kyuun
Jaldi Jaldi Bolo Chalo
It gave rise to a post called 'Aaj Main Khush Huun'....... Puneet and Amit shared the H.C.F prize at guessing........ why was I so happy as to put out such a tagline?????

Here goes.....

I didn't know I had it in me, is what made me happy...... a deed that never got a thank you made me even more happy cause I wasn't looking for the thank you...

u think I'm cuckoo in the head... read on.

8am - got up, rushed to get ready...

8:30am - leave home for a pit stop at Dr.Dangs pathology lab for a blood test [ U ask why? that is a separate post, not relevant rite now.. later] before getting to work.
Hopefully, won't get stuck in any traffic... else boss will get another message.... 'Stuck in crazy jam'... LOL....

9:am - reach Hauz khas, park the car... thank god, got parking across the road and not 2 streets away[as is the norm, this doc's place is very crowded], else would have been charcoal walking in the sun.....

9:10am - got a slip and waited for my turn. most of you would know by now that I'm dead scared of needles.... would still like to take my mom along if I could [I know ure dying to laugh... go on laugh else u'll gag up].... still cringe at the sight of a needle.... even if it's not for me....

9:12am: kid in the doc's chair is wailing.... loud... it get's louder..... n I'm squirming in my chair.... why the heck does she have to do this n make me want to run to the nearest door n out of here....
oh hell.... this is really gonna be tough... shut up kid... shut up before I have to go out.....
she's done with the test n come away hitting her dad n wailing even more loudly.....

9:15am: lady calls out my name..... I gulp n gasp for air... still have time... can tell her that I'll come back later....
my legs drag me to the doc's chair.... I'm screaming in my head... No....No.... Not right now... later... later.... I'll do this later..... Not now.... Pleeeeeeeeease.......... Pleeeeeeeeease..........
am seated in the chair.... [seems like the gallows to me...]
I tell the assistant to please hold my arm as I'm very liable to shake it ......
there's a scream stuck in my throat.....
I close my eyes n stretch my arm...... [n the world is gonna collapse..... I purse my lips, so that the scream stuck in my throat doesn't escape...]
I'm poked, I gulp. A of blood must have been taken out as it seemed like an eternity before he withdrew the needle.....
Ahhh... it's done.....
I come back to my senses.....

Walk away from the horrid chair.... Thankful for the guards on my lips which didn't let the scream thru......

The kid is still wailing..... n sniffling away in a chair in the waiting area.... her neighbor in the next chair, sweet aunty tries to tell her it's over... everyone is getting it done, see noone else is crying... it's ok....

No avail.. even loader wails..... Now the dad's nowhere to be seen on the scene....

Wondered if I had a sweet or chocolate in my bag.... Oh hell.... I'm suppose to be on a diet... just finished the last bite of chocolate yesterday night....

Then I asked her... what happened why are you crying...[as if I, of all the people, I didn't know, what has just happeneI] ... it's ok it's over now... see even I got a poke.. show me your's.....
No reaction.....
Where's your papa?
She looks at me and snaps back in the loudest of voices..... 'Tum angrezi mein kyun baat kar rahi ho?'
am a bit taken aback.... n quickly switch languages....
[can't type so much in hindi... so I'm doing a translation of the conversation that took place....]

Do you watch tv? no answer... only sniffles....
Do you watch cartoons...
I DON'T WATCH TV AND I DON'T LIKE CARTOONS....

Ok tell me why are you crying?
JAB DARD HOTI HAI TO RONA AATA HAI.... AAP HASTE HO KYA [ok I'm amused... wanted to smile, but kept a serious face... u all know how difficult that is for me.... I can see amit saying Oh Hell Yeah....]

Should i take you you out in the sun then... it's very hot.....
GLARE BACK..... NO I WON'T GO OUT WITH YOU......[atleast she's talking now, still tears pouring down, let me change tracks.... rack my brains on what should get a kid talking other than sweets and cartoons......]

Do you go to school?
YES [ looks at me and answers]
So what are you doing here? Why aren't you in school yet?
CHUTTI HAI.... [sniffles dying down]
chutti kyun hai.....
PATA NAHIN...[pause, looks and me n says] SHAYAD TEACHER GO GARMI LAGTI HAI....[ wanted to burst out laughing by now..... she smiles]

My poke stops stinging... I chuck the cotton n say... see nothing happened to me....
show me your hand....
she holds it out diffidently....
I take her by the arm n to the nurse before she could protest....
Arms held out.... 'please put bandaids for us'.... she puts it on.....
We come back to the chairs and now that the kid is quiet, the dad appears from no where.....

Look at my watch 9:40am... Oh crap will be late for work.... Runnn........ rather zipppppppp..... n hope for no traffic snarls..... Thankfully got to work just in time.....

Just had this huge smile on my lips the whole day..... and even now......

So now you know... :-)

Bribing God With Toy Planes

Just couldn't resist this... 'Bribing God With Toy Planes'.....
LOL....

Want to seek greener pastures abroad? Come to a gurudwara here and offer a plane and who knows your wish might get fulfilled.

This may sound strange but Punjabi youths, especially from the Doaba region, have been thronging the Gurudwara Sant Baba Nihal Singh Ji Shaheedan in Talhan to offer toy planes so that their wishes of going abroad and getting lucrative jobs are fulfilled.

Toy planes, inscribed with names of different carriers, are found in front of the Guru Granth Sahib.

Jolene Jolene Jolene Jolene

Heard this song on matchless music hour on 102.6 Air FM Rainbow..... It's sung by Dolly Parton... It's stuck in my head



Lyrics:
jolene jolene jolene jolene
I'm begging of you, please don't take my man
jolene jolene jolene jolene
please don't take him even though you can

your beauty is beyond compare
with flaming locks of auburn hair
with ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
your smile is like a breath of spring
your voice is soft like summer rain

I cannot compete with you jolene
and he talks about you in his sleep
and there is nothing I can do to keep
from crying when he calls your name, jolene jolene jolene jolene jolene
I'm begging of you please don't take my man
jolene jolene jolene jolene
please don't take him even though you can

well I can easily understand
how you can easily take my man
but you don't know what he means to me jolene
well you could have your choice of men
but I could never love again

he's the only one for me jolene
and I had to had to have this talk with you
my happiness depends on you
and whatever you decide to do jolene

jolene jolene jolene jolene
I'm begging of you please don't take my man
jolene jolene jolene jolene
please don't take him even though you can

I Want The Fairy Tale

You can't charge me for directions!
I can do anything I want to baby, I ain't lost.


The bad things are easier to believe. Haven't you noticed that?!


I want the fairy tale.


What happens after he climbs up and rescues her?
She rescues him right back.


Welcome to Hollywood! What's your dream? Everybody comes here; this is Hollywood, land of dreams. Some dreams come true, some don't; but keep on dreamin' - this is Hollywood. Always time to dream, so keep on dreamin'.

IT MUST HAVE BEEN LOVE (Roxette)

Lay a whisper on my pillow, leave the winter on the ground.
I wake up lonely, there's air of silence in the bedroom and all around.
Touch me now, I close my eyes and dream away.

It must have been love but it's over now.
It must have been good but I lost it somehow.
It must have been love but it's over now.
From the moment we touched 'til the time had run out.

Make-believing we're together, that I'm sheltered by your heart.
But in and outside I've turned to water like a teardrop in your palm.
And it's a hard Christmas day, I dream away.

It must have been love but it's over now,
it was all that I wanted, now I'm living without.
It must have been love but it's over now,
it's where the water flows, it's where the wind blows.

Why do we marry? Shall We Dance



We need a witness to our lives. There's a billion people on the planet... I mean, what does any one life really mean? But in a marriage, you're promising to care about everything. The good things, the bad things, the terrible things, the mundane things... all of it, all of the time, every day. You're saying 'Your life will not go unnoticed because I will notice it. Your life will not go un-witnessed because I will be your witness'."
~ Beverly Clark (Susan Sarandon)
