But I have a small problem. And all hell breaks loose when that problem surfaces. They say it is with age, but others say I am turning mangy. Whatever. I know what it is. I get upset at times thinking of all the beautiful things of past which I don't have as of now. My girl friend ditched me for the pack leader (but of course!) and my loving family died when they were crushed under a car (the single largest killer of our breed in India). And I hate it at times. I can't control myself. I tend to hit myself to the cars so that my pain would alleviate the ache I have in heart, but to no avail. Bloody cars these days. As soon as I hit, some sort of vicious noise starts coming out from them. Am I a thief? (Stupid people, they don't know that the actual thief is that chowkidaar who is duplicating their cars' keys!) I can't tolerate such rude behavior. What is my fault? I need to hit myself numb and the car screeches. Then I howl. Then the chowkidaar drives me away for the fear of my painful howls waking up the neighbourhood. I leave the sanctuary of my lane. The packs hound me away back to the lane. I snugly get back into the blanket when the chowkidaar is sleeping. And the cycle continues. You understand my pain, right? Don't you?
How irritating is it to get a phone call when you are in that last hour of your sleep on a Saturday morning? Worse, if it turns out to be your mobile service provider wanting to confirm if you would want to upgrade your 3G plan (which in any case sucks with most providers in India!) Even worse, what if it turns out to be someone important, like your boss? Now you don't want to sound totally sleepy - do you? What would he/she be thinking of you if he were to ask, "Were you sleeping?" at 11 am in the morning? (And, this is judgmental attitude is especially true of older white haired balding bosses!) Well, here are a few tips to sound all alert & morning crispy when actually you would have killed him for ruining your sleep on a Saturday morning. They have worked well for me, hope they would for you too! - Take a deep breath, let the phone ring for a few seconds so that you get a chance to clear your head (hope you did not have much alcohol last night).
