Why do only drunk people lose their wallets? And if they lost all the money how come they left some for drinking.. Such fellow met me yesterday.. evening time. I was shopping something. There, this guy started talking to me.. first he asked me for a ride to the place he was saying. He was looking ok, speaking good English, was 'smelling'. I said ok, I will drop you.. Then he said he needed help.. financial help because he lost his wallet, which had fair amount of money and and ATM card. And then he explained me as how he called up the bank helpline and how he went to the bank office and how they do not cooperate. He said he wanted some money to 'follow up'. I was like.. sorry sir, I can drop you home, but cannot pay you.. even as a friendly gesture (his words), for it is uncomfortable for me to help this way. He tried to explain as how he has to approach his relatives for money now.. just continued on.. Somehow I got rid of him.
But how come people drink when they lose all the money? I could not ask him this..

NakTee chya lagnala yenar nahit itki vighna mazya MBA assignments karayla yet ahet.. Its been a long time that they are pending, and I am escaping to work on them under the excuse that "Work expands with time". So finally, I had to take some time out off my busy schedule, so, yesterday took half day off from office to do some assignment work and ran to home.. But was too tired, so thought it won't hurt to sleep a bit. A bit of sleep got over by a phone ring.. my friend, Adi, called saying he had come to Pune. Thatsit.. nothing holds more priority to this. So spent the whole evening with him. Atteneded his friend's marriage with him, of the person I did not know :) Afterall friend's friend is your friend.. And this is not the frist time I am attending friend's friend's wedding.. I am getting used to this.
And in the last, I had to drop him to bus stand on JM Road, with just 15 minutes left for the bus departure. There is some construction going on near E-Square signal, so avoid it took the Model colony way.. and I got lost. The roads I took in Model colony took me to univ road, where I did not want to go to... we were late. Fortunately the bus had not left, Adi cursed me a lot while driving.. thats all he could do.
Anyways.. the half day off I took got over at 11 in the night.. very little I could work on the assignment work.
